Filtering Algorithms for the NValue Constraint
Abstract. The NValue constraint counts the number of different values assigned to a vector of variables. Propagating generalized arc consistency on this constraint is NP-hard. We ...

The Increasing Nvalue Constraint
This paper introduces the Increasing Nvalue constraint, which restricts the number of distinct values assigned to a sequence of variables so that each variable in the sequence is l...

Solving subgraph isomorphism problems with constraint programming
The subgraph isomorphism problem consists in deciding if there exists a copy of a pattern graph in a target graph. We introduce in this paper a global constraint and an associated ...

A Filtering Algorithm for Constraints of Difference in CSPs
Many real-life Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) involve some constraints similar to the alldifferent constraints. These constraints are called constraints of difference. Th...

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,...
