Formalizes the generation of synthetic populations satisfying multidimensional unary, binary and ternary constraints. Introduces the convex dual formulation and the L-BFGS solver, and systematically compares the method with generalized raking on NPORS-derived benchmarks spanning 4 to 40 attributes.
