32  * The inference history branching rule is based on the average number of deductions obtained after
33  * branching this variable upwards and downwards.
34  * Variables which cause many problem reductions are preferred since they are more likely to drive
35  * the created sub-tree towards infeasibility.
36  * Inference history of the variables is updated during the branch-and-bound search.
37  *
38  * For a more detailed description and a comparison between the inference rule and other branching rules
39  * in SCIP, we refer to
