Constraint Bipartite Vertex Cover: Simpler Exact Algorithms and Implementations
نویسندگان
چکیده
constraint bipartite vertex cover is a graph-theoretical formalization of the spare allocation problem for reconfigurable arrays. We report on an implementation of a parameterized algorithm for this problem. This has led to considerable simplifications of the published, quite sophisticated algorithm. Moreover, we can prove that the mentioned algorithm could be quite efficient in practial situations.

CSC 5160 : Combinatorial Optimization and Approximation Algorithms
In this lecture, the focus is on primal dual method and its application in designing exact algorithms and approximation algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. It is a general framework which can solve many problems rather systematically. We first introduce the principles of primal dual program, and then show one example, weighted bipartite matching for designing exact algorithm and...
متن کاملBounding cochordal cover number of graphs via vertex stretching
It is shown that when a special vertex stretching is applied to a graph, the cochordal cover number of the graph increases exactly by one, as it happens to its induced matching number and (Castelnuovo-Mumford) regularity. As a consequence, it is shown that the induced matching number and cochordal cover number of a special vertex stretching of a graph G are equal provided G is well-covered bipa...
متن کاملApproximation of max independent set, min vertex cover and related problems by moderately exponential algorithms
Using ideas and results from polynomial approximation and exact computation we design approximation algorithms for several NP-hard combinatorial problems achieving ratios that cannot be achieved in polynomial time (unless a very unlikely complexity conjecture is confirmed) with worst-case complexity much lower (though super-polynomial) than that of an exact computation. We study in particular m...
متن کاملSubmodular Constraints and Planar Constraint Networks: New Results
In this paper, we present fast polynomial-time algorithms for solving classes of submodular constraints over Boolean domains. We pose the identified classes of problems within the general framework of Weighted Constraint Satisfaction Problems (WCSPs), reformulated as minimum weighted vertex cover problems. We examine the Constraint Composite Graphs (CCGs) associated with these WCSPs and provide...
متن کاملResearch on Solution Space of Bipartite Graph Vertex-Cover by Maximum Matchings
Some rigorous results and statistics of the solution space of Vertex-Covers on bipartite graphs are given in this paper. Based on the König’s theorem, an exact solution space expression algorithm is proposed and statistical analysis of the nodes’ states is provided. The statistical results fit well with the algorithmic results until the emergence of the unfrozen core, which makes the fluctuatio...
