Finding Minimal Cost Herbrand Models with Branch-Cut-and-Price
Given (1) a set of clauses $T$ in some first-order language $\cal L$ and (2) a cost function $c : B_{{\cal L}} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{+}$, mapping each ground atom in the Herbrand base $B_{{\cal L}}$ to a non-negative real, then the problem of finding a
