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 end.}, url = {https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/978-3-319-50137-6.pdf$\#$page=307}, author = {Mirco Nanni and Siegfried Nijssen and Barry O{\textquoteright}Sullivan and Paparrizou, Anastasia and Dino Pedreschi and Simonis, Helmut} }
