Soft Syntactic Constraints for Hierarchical Phrase-Based Translation Using Latent Syntactic Distributions
In this paper, we present a novel approach to enhance hierarchical phrase-based machine translation systems with linguistically motivated syntactic features. Rather than directly ...

Controllability of Soft Temporal Constraint Problems
In real-life temporal scenarios, uncertainty and preferences are often essential, coexisting aspects. We present a formalism where temporal constraints with both preferences and un...

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...

Elicitation strategies for soft constraint problems with missing preferences: Properties, algorithms and experimental studies
We consider soft constraint problems where some of the preferences may be unspecified. This models, for example, settings where agents are distributed and have privacy issues, or ...
