Class MaximumWeightBipartiteMatching<V,E>

java.lang.Object

org.jgrapht.alg.matching.MaximumWeightBipartiteMatching<V,E>

Type Parameters:

V - the graph vertex type

E - the graph edge type

All Implemented Interfaces:

MatchingAlgorithm<V,E>

public class MaximumWeightBipartiteMatching<V,E>
extends java.lang.Object
implements MatchingAlgorithm<V,E>

This class finds a maximum weight matching of a simple undirected weighted bipartite graph. The algorithm runs in O(V|E|^2). The algorithm is described in The LEDA Platform of Combinatorial and Geometric Computing, Cambridge University Press, 1999. https://people.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~mehlhorn/LEDAbook.html Note: the input graph must be bipartite with positive integer edge weights

Constructor Detail

MaximumWeightBipartiteMatching

public MaximumWeightBipartiteMatching(Graph<V,E> graph,
                                      java.util.Set<V> partition1,
                                      java.util.Set<V> partition2)

Parameters:

graph - the input graph

partition1 - the first partition of the vertex set

partition2 - the second partition of the vertex set

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the graph is not undirected
