Approximate Denial Constraints
Summary: Introduces approximate denial constraints for noisy/inconsistent data, capturing generally valid rules with exceptions while reducing overfitting. ADCMiner supports arbitrary approximation functions satisfying natural axioms and combines with sampling for scalable, accurate discovery. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
