Domain-Specific Preferences for Causal Reasoning and Planning
We address the issue of incorporating domain-specific preferences in planning systems, where a preference may be seen as a "soft" constraint that it is desirable, but no...

Finding the Next Solution in Constraint- and Preference-Based Knowledge Representation Formalisms
In constraint or preference reasoning, a typical task is to compute a solution, or an optimal solution. However, when one has already a solution, it may be important to produce th...

Enhancing Constraints Manipulation in Semiring-Based Formalisms
Abstract. Many "semiring-like" structures are used in Soft Constraint Satisfaction Problems (SCSPs). We review a few properties of semirings that are useful for dealing w...

Temporal Reasoning with Preferences and Uncertainty
Temporal Constraint Satisfaction Problems allow for reasoning with events happening over time. Their expressiveness has been extended independently in two directions: to account f...

Guiding a Theorem Prover with Soft Constraints
Attempts to use finite models to guide the search for proofs by resolution and the like in first order logic all suffer from the need to trade off the expense of generating and m...
