Hi Leslie,


This is an insanely rewarding email to hear!

I am currently working on implementing an IIS plugin for SCIP, so the 
answer to your question is that there will soon be such functionality! I 
will be cautiously optimistic and suggest that the feature exists by the 
end of this month (let's hope this doesn't age poorly). A note of 
warning though: It will sadly not be as performant as the algorithms 
implemented in some of the closed-source solvers. A substantial amount 
of work needs to be done for that to happen.
The reality for right now: There is no such functionality, and the 
answer to the question from 2015 is still up to date. That is, one would 
either need to write their own algorithm or use the existing MinUC 
functionality and work around that output.


Hopefully this functionality exists soon, and thanks for the email 
justifying the need for this!


Cheers and happy optimising,

Mark
