Researchers have developed a new constraint programming (CP) formulation called CPCF for computing optimal counterfactual explanations in tree ensembles. This method encodes numerical features as interval domains and discrete features with native finite-domain representations, enabling efficient search without continuous boundary analysis. The study compares CPCF against MaxSAT and MILP formulations across various datasets and tree ensemble types, finding CP to be the most versatile and generally performant approach. AI
