Constraint-based optimization and utility elicitation using the minimax decision criterion
In many situations, a set of hard constraints encodes the feasible configurations of some system or product over which multiple users have distinct preferences. However, making su...

Information-theoretic approaches to branching in search
Deciding what to branch on at each node is a key element of search algorithms. We present four families of methods for selecting what question to branch on. They are all informati...
