A Distributed Augmenting Path Approach for the Bottleneck Assignment Problem

Tony Alan Wood

We develop an algorithm to solve the bottleneck assignment problem (BAP) that is amenable to having computation distributed over a network of agents. This consists of exploring how each component of the algorithm can be distributed, with a focus on one com ...

A full characterization of invariant embeddability of unimodular planar graphs

Laszlo Marton Toth

When can a unimodular random planar graph be drawn in the Euclidean or the hyperbolic plane in a way that the distribution of the random drawing is isometry-invariant? This question was answered for one-ended unimodular graphs in Benjamini and Timar, using ...

Modeling and Optimization of Ridesplitting Operations

Caio Vitor Beojone

Ridesourcing has driven a lot of attention in recent years with the expansion of companies like Uber, Lift, and many others around the world. Companies use mobile applications connected through the internet to match drivers and their passengers real-time. ...

Results on Sparse Integer Programming and Geometric Independent Sets

Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

An integer linear program is a problem of the form max{c^T x : Ax=b, x >= 0, x integer}, where A is in Z^(n x m), b in Z^m, and c in Z^n. Solving an integer linear program is NP-hard in general, but there are several assumptions for which it becomes fixed ...

Weighted Matchings via Unweighted Augmentations

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Slobodan Mitrovic, Buddhima Ruwanmini Gamlath Gamlath Ralalage, Sagar Sudhir Kale

We design a generic method to reduce the task of finding weighted matchings to that of finding short augmenting paths in unweighted graphs. This method enables us to provide efficient implementations for approximating weighted matchings in the massively pa ...

Bartering Books to Beers: a Recommender System for Exchange Platforms

Michele Catasta, Jérémie Rappaz, Maria-Luiza Vladarean

Bartering is a timeless practice that is becoming increasingly popular on the Web. Recommending trades for an online bartering platform shares many similarities with traditional approaches to recommendation, in particular the need to model the preferences ...

Growing a Graph Matching from a Handful of Seeds

Matthias Grossglauser, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Ehsan Kazemi

In many graph–mining problems, two networks from different domains have to be matched. In the absence of reliable node attributes, graph matching has to rely on only the link structures of the two networks, which amounts to a generalization of the classic ...

Population Sensing Using Mobile Devices : a Statistical Opportunity or a Privacy Nightmare?

Farid Movahedi Naini

In our daily lives, our mobile phones sense our movements and interactions via a rich set of embedded sensors such as a GPS, Bluetooth, accelerometers, and microphones. This enables us to use mobile phones as agents for collecting spatio-temporal data. The ...

On the Performance of Percolation Graph Matching

Matthias Grossglauser, Lyudmila Yartseva

Graph matching is a generalization of the classic graph isomorphism problem. By using only their structures a graph-matching algorithm finds a map between the vertex sets of two similar graphs. This has applications in the de-anonymization of social and in ...

Embedding cylinder quality measures into Minutia Cylinder-Code based latent fingerprint matching

Andrzej Drygajlo, Mohammad Hamed Izadi

One of the major problems concerning latent fingerprint matching in forensic applications is the poor quality of fingerprint data. Therefore, local quality assessment of fingerprint images is necessary to ensure high biometric performance in this applicati ...
