At the same time, one continuously gathers vast amounts of data about these problems. Current constraint programming software does not exploit such data to update schedules, resources and plans. We propose a new framework, that we call the Inductive Constraint Programming (ICON) loop. In this approach data is gathered and analyzed systematically in order to dynamically revise and adapt constraints and optimization criteria. Inductive Constraint Programming aims at bridging the gap between the areas of data mining and machine learning on the one hand, and constraint programming on the other hand.}, booktitle = {Data {Mining} and {Constraint} {Programming}: {Foundations} of a {Cross}-{Disciplinary} {Approach}}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, author = {Bessière, Christian and De Raedt, Luc and Guns, Tias and Kotthoff, Lars and Nanni, Mirco and Nijssen, Siegfried and O'Sullivan, Barry and Paparrizou, Anastasia and Pedreschi, Dino and Simonis, Helmut}, editor = {Bessiere, Christian and De Raedt, Luc and Kotthoff, Lars and Nijssen, Siegfried and O'Sullivan, Barry and Pedreschi, Dino}, year = {2016}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-50137-6_12}, pages = {303--309} }
