Abstract
The Pattern self-Assembly Tile set Synthesis (PATS) problem, which arises in the theory of structured DNA self-assembly, is to determine a set of coloured tiles that, starting from a bordering seed structure, self-assembles to a given rectangular colour pattern. The task of finding minimum-size tile sets is known to be NP-hard. We explore several complete and incomplete search techniques for finding minimal, or at least small, tile sets and also assess the reliability of the solutions obtained according to the kinetic Tile Assembly Model.
