In this paper we derive a generic form of structural decomposition for the constraint satisfaction problem, which we call a guarded decomposition. We show that many existing decom...
This paper introduces a novel image decomposition approach for an ensemble of correlated images, using low-rank and sparsity constraints. Each image is decomposed as a combination...
We propose ALLDIFFPREC, a new global constraint that combines together an ALLDIFFERENT constraint with precedence constraints that strictly order given pairs of variables. We ident...

Dual decomposition has been recently proposed as a way of combining complementary models, with a boost in predictive power. However, in cases where lightweight decompositions are ...
