Solving Logic Grid Puzzles with an Algorithm that Imitates Human Behavior

Abstract

We present in this paper our solver for logic grid puzzles. The approach used by our algorithm mimics the way a human would try to solve the same problem. Every progress made during the solving process is accompanied by a detailed explanation of our program's reasoning. Since this reasoning is based on the same heuristics that a human would employ, the user can easily follow the given explanation.
