Constraints.jl

A back-end package for JuliaConstraints front packages, such as LocalSearchSolvers.jl.

It provides the following features:

  • A dictionary to store usual constraint: usual_constraint, which contains the following entries (in alphabetical order):

    • :all_different
    • :all_equal
    • :at_least
    • :at_most
    • :cardinality
    • :cardinality_closed
    • :cardinality_open
    • :channel
    • :circuit
    • :conflicts
    • :count
    • :cumulative
    • :decreasing
    • :dist_different
    • :element
    • :exactly
    • :extension
    • :increasing
    • :instantiation
    • :maximum
    • :mdd
    • :minimum
    • :no_overlap
    • :no_overlap_no_zero
    • :no_overlap_with_zero
    • :nvalues
    • :ordered
    • :regular
    • :strictly_decreasing
    • :strictly_increasing
    • :sum
    • :supports
  • For each constraint c, the following properties

    • arguments length
    • concept (predicate the variables compliance with c)
    • error (a function that evaluate how much c is violated)
    • parameters length
    • known symmetries of c
  • A learning function using CompositionalNetworks.jl. If no error function is given when instantiating c, it will check the existence of a composition related to c and set the error to it.

Contributing

Contributions to this package are more than welcome and can be arbitrarily, and not exhaustively, split as follows:

  • Adding new constraints and symmetries
  • Adding new ICNs to learn error of existing constraints
  • Creating other compositional networks which target other kind of constraints
  • Just making stuff better, faster, user-friendlier, etc.
