   4 = No solution exists.                                 - This happen when there are too many Inf values in cost vector and thus the solution does not exist due to sparse parity-check matrix.
   5 = Price vector limit exceeded.                        - There is a limit to cost elements when you use integer version of the algorithm. Try to use costs in double.
   6 = Maximum number of trials in layered construction exceeded.
