@Deprecated
public class HopcroftKarpBipartiteMatching<V,E>
extends java.lang.Object
implements MatchingAlgorithm<V,E>

This class is an implementation of the Hopcroft-Karp algorithm which finds a maximum matching in an undirected simple bipartite graph. The algorithm runs in O(|E|*√|V|) time. The original algorithm is described in: Hopcroft, John E.; Karp, Richard M. (1973), "An n5/2 algorithm for maximum matchings in bipartite graphs", SIAM Journal on Computing 2 (4): 225–231, doi:10.1137/0202019 A coarse overview of the algorithm is given in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopcroft-Karp_algorithm Note: the behavior of this class is undefined when the input isn't a bipartite graph, i.e. when there are edges within a single partition!
