Many real life optimization problems are defined in terms of both hard and soft constraints, and qualitative conditional preferences. However, there is as yet no single framework f...

Real-life problems present several kinds of preferences. We focus on problems with both positive and negative preferences, that we call bipolar preference problems. Although seemin...

Preferences in constraint problems are common but significant in many real world applications. In this paper, we extend our conditional and composite CSP (CCCSP) framework, managi...
Constraints and quantitative preferences, or costs, are very useful for modelling many real-life problems. However, in many settings, it is difficult to specify precise preference ...

In [1] we propose interchangeability based algorithms as methods for solving the case adaptation for the domain of problems which can be expressed as Constraint Satisfaction Proble...
