A Hyper-arc Consistency Algorithm for the Soft Alldifferent Constraint
This paper presents an algorithm that achieves hyper-arc consistency for the soft alldifferent constraint. To this end, we prove and exploit the equivalence with a minimum-cost flo...

On Global Warming (Softening Global Constraints)
We describe soft versions of the global cardinality constraint and the regular constraint, with efficient filtering algorithms maintaining domain consistency. For both constraints,...

Generalizations of the Global Cardinality Constraint for Hierarchical Resources
Abstract. We propose generalizations of the Global Cardinality Constraint (gcc) in which a partition of the variables is given. In the context of resource allocation problems, such...

The minimum consistent subset cover problem and its applications in data mining
In this paper, we introduce and study the Minimum Consistent Subset Cover (MCSC) problem. Given a finite ground set X and a constraint t, find the minimum number of consistent sub...

Know your Limits: Enhanced XML Modeling with Cardinality Constraints
XML Schema supports the specification of occurrence constraints by declaring values for its min/maxOccurs attributes. These constraints are structural in the sense that they rest...
