The use of heuristics as a means to improve constraint solver performance has been researched widely. However, most work has been on problem-independentheuristics (e.g., variable ...

We show that aggregate constraints (as opposed to pairwise constraints) that often arise when integrating multiple sources of data, can be leveraged to enhance the quality of dedu...

Many real life optimization problems contain both hard and soft constraints, as well as qualitative conditional preferences. However, there is no single formalism to specify all t...
