    Full text link
    Hypergraph partitioning has a wide range of important applications such as VLSI design or scientific computing. With focus on solution quality, we develop the first multilevel memetic algorithm to tackle the problem. Key components of our contribution are new effective multilevel recombination and mutation operations that provide a large amount of diversity. We perform a wide range of experiments on a benchmark set containing instances from application areas such VLSI, SAT solving, social networks, and scientific computing. Compared to the state-of-the-art hypergraph partitioning tools hMetis, PaToH, and KaHyPar, our new algorithm computes the best result on almost all instances

    Improving Coarsening Schemes for Hypergraph Partitioning by Exploiting Community Structure

    We present an improved coarsening process for multilevel hypergraph partitioning that incorporates global information about the community structure. Community detection is performed via modularity maximization on a bipartite graph representation. The approach is made suitable for different classes of hypergraphs by defining weights for the graph edges that express structural properties of the hypergraph. We integrate our approach into a leading multilevel hypergraph partitioner with strong local search algorithms and perform extensive experiments on a large benchmark set of hypergraphs stemming from application areas such as VLSI design, SAT solving, and scientific computing. Our results indicate that respecting community structure during coarsening not only significantly improves the solutions found by the initial partitioning algorithm, but also consistently improves overall solution quality

    Network Flow-Based Refinement for Multilevel Hypergraph Partitioning

    We present a refinement framework for multilevel hypergraph partitioning that uses max-flow computations on pairs of blocks to improve the solution quality of a k-way partition. The framework generalizes the flow-based improvement algorithm of KaFFPa from graphs to hypergraphs and is integrated into the hypergraph partitioner KaHyPar. By reducing the size of hypergraph flow networks, improving the flow model used in KaFFPa, and developing techniques to improve the running time of our algorithm, we obtain a partitioner that computes the best solutions for a wide range of benchmark hypergraphs from different application areas while still having a running time comparable to that of hMetis

    The technology of record, storage and processing of the texts, based on creation of integer index cycles is discussed. Algorithms of exact-match search and search similar on the basis of inquiry in a natural language are considered. The software realizing offered approaches is described, and examples of the electronic archives possessing properties of intellectual search are resulted

    The New Software Package for Dynamic Hierarchical Clustering for Circles Types of Shapes

    Get PDF
    In data mining, efforts have focused on finding methods for efficient and effective cluster analysis in large databases. Active themes of research focus on the scalability of clustering methods, the effectiveness of methods for clustering complex shapes and types of data, high-dimensional clustering techniques, and methods for clustering mixed numerical and categorical data in large databases. One of the most accuracy approach based on dynamic modeling of cluster similarity is called Chameleon. In this paper we present a modified hierarchical clustering algorithm that used the main idea of Chameleon and the effectiveness of suggested approach will be demonstrated by the experimental results

    ENISLE: an intuitive heuristic nearly optimal solution for mincut and ratio mincut partitioning

    Get PDF
    [[abstract]]Mincut partitioning is to minimize the total cuts of the edges by the partitioning of nodes into two sets. The proposed method, Edge-Node Interleaved Sort for Leaching and Envelop (ENISLE) algorithm, not only uses node information but also uses edge information. It is simple, but works effectively, and has never appeared in any earlier literature. It can soon obtain an intuitive heuristic nearly optimal solution for mincut and ratio mincut partitioning and, at the same time, is very suitable for EDA usage.[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20010506~20010509[[booktype]]紙本[[iscallforpapers]]Y[[conferencelocation]]Syndey, NSW, Australi

    Accounting for Recent Changes of Gain in Dealing with Ties in Iterative Methods for Circuit Partitioning

    Get PDF
    In iterative methods for partitioning circuits, there is often a choice among several modules which will all produce the largest available reduction in cut size if they are moved between subsets in the partition. This choice, which is usually made by popping modules off a stack, has been shown to have a considerable impact on performance. By considering the most recent change in the potential reduction in cut size associated with moving each module between subsets, the performance of this LIFO (last-in first-out) approach can be significantly improved
