Computational techniques for a simple theory of conditional preferences
<22>Over the last few years there has been a great deal of interest in formalisms for reasoning with conditional preferences, in particular, CP-nets, as a natural and expressive method of reasoning about user preferences on multi-variable problems (with best paper awards going to CP-nets papers at IJCAI-09 and in JAIR 2009). Our paper, as well as showing the limited expressivity of CP-nets, describes an elegant logic-based formalism that is much more expressive in important ways, but still allows efficient solution methods. The author, with others, developed this formalism for a recommender system context, leading to a best-paper award at ICTAI-2010.
