Constraint Models for the Covering Test Problem
Covering arrays can be applied to the testing of software, hardware and advanced materials, and to the effects of hormone interaction on gene expression. In this paper we develop c...

Speech Recognition Using a Stochastic Language Model Integrating Local and Global Constraints
In this paper, we propose a new stochastic language model that integrates local and global constraints effectively and describe a speechrecognition system basedon it. Theproposedl...

Describing and Utilizing Constraints to Answer Queries in Data-Integration Systems
In data-integration systems, information sources often have various constraints such as “all houses stored at a source have a unique address.” These constraints are very usefu...

The Complexity of Global Constraints
We study the computational complexity of reasoning with global constraints. We show that reasoning with such constraints is intractable in general. We then demonstrate how the sam...

Learning Implied Global Constraints
Finding a constraint network that will be efficiently solved by a constraint solver requires a strong expertise in Constraint Programming. Hence, there is an increasing interest i...

Jointly Combining Implicit Constraints Improves Temporal Ordering
Previous work on ordering events in text has typically focused on local pairwise decisions, ignoring globally inconsistent labels. However, temporal ordering is the type of domain...

Discovering Knowledge from Local Patterns with Global Constraints
It is well known that local patterns are at the core of a lot of knowledge which may be discovered from data. Nevertheless, use of local patterns is limited by their huge number an...

Combining Symmetry Breaking and Global Constraints
Abstract. We propose a new family of constraints which combine together lexicographical ordering constraints for symmetry breaking with other common global constraints. We give a g...
