A Hybrid Recursive Multi-Way Number Partitioning Algorithm
نویسنده
چکیده
The number partitioning problem is to divide a given set of n positive integers into k subsets, so that the sum of the numbers in each subset are as nearly equal as possible. While effective algorithms for two-way partitioning exist, multi-way partitioning is much more challenging. We introduce an improved algorithm for optimal multi-way partitioning, by combining several existing algorithms with some new extensions. We test our algorithm for partitioning 31-bit integers from three to ten ways, and demonstrate orders of magnitude speedup over the previous state of the art.

متن کاملMulti - level direct K - way hypergraph partitioning with multiple constraints and fixed vertices 1
K-way hypergraph partitioning has an ever-growing use in parallelization of scientific computing applications. We claim that hypergraph partitioning with multiple constraints and fixed vertices should be implemented using direct K-way refinement, instead of the widely adopted recursive bisection paradigm. Our arguments are based on the fact that recursive-bisection-based partitioning algorithms...

This paper deals with the k-way ratio cut hypergraph partitioning utilizing the Mixed discrete continuous variant of the Bayesian Optimization Algorithm (mBOA). We have tested our algorithm on three partitioning taxonomies: recursive minimum ratio cut, multi-way minimum ratio cut and recursive minimum cut bisection. We have also derived a new approach for modeling of Boolean functions using bin...
