  1. Assignment problem

    The assignment problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem. In its most general form, the problem is as follows: The problem instance has a number of agents and a number of tasks. Any agent can be assigned to perform any task, incurring some cost that may vary depending on the agent-task assignment.

  2. Hungarian algorithm

    The Hungarian method is a combinatorial optimization algorithm that solves the assignment problem in polynomial time and which anticipated later primal-dual methods.It was developed and published in 1955 by Harold Kuhn, who gave it the name "Hungarian method" because the algorithm was largely based on the earlier works of two Hungarian mathematicians, Dénes Kőnig and Jenő Egerváry.

  4. PDF The Assignment Problem and the Hungarian Method

    The Hungarian Method: The following algorithm applies the above theorem to a given n × n cost matrix to find an optimal assignment. Step 1. Subtract the smallest entry in each row from all the entries of its row. Step 2. Subtract the smallest entry in each column from all the entries of its column. Step 3.

  5. Hungarian Method

    The Hungarian method is a computational optimization technique that addresses the assignment problem in polynomial time and foreshadows following primal-dual alternatives. In 1955, Harold Kuhn used the term "Hungarian method" to honour two Hungarian mathematicians, Dénes Kőnig and Jenő Egerváry. Let's go through the steps of the Hungarian method with the help of a solved example.

  8. PDF The Hungarian method for the assignment problem

    THE HUNGARIAN METHOD FOR THE ASSIGNMENT PROBLEM. These lemmas, in combination, establish the key result: THEOREM 1. For a given assignment, if every transfer leads to. a complete assignment then, for every individual qualified for a job, either the individual or the job is essential, and possibly both.

  9. The assignment problem revisited

    The assignment problem is important from a theoretical point of view because it appears as a subproblem of a vast number of combinatorial optimization problems , and its solution allows the development of algorithms to solve other combinatorial optimization problems.

  10. Assignment problem

    In the assignment problem, for such a solution $ x _ {ij } $ is either zero or one; $ x _ {ij } = 1 $ means that person $ i $ is assigned to job $ j $; the weight $ c _ {ij } $ is the utility of person $ i $ assigned to job $ j $. ... Some of these use the Hungarian method (see, e.g., , ...

  11. Assignment Problem and Hungarian Algorithm

    The assignment problem is a special case of the transportation problem, ... The main idea of the method is the following: consider we've found the perfect matching using only edges of weight 0 (hereinafter called "0-weight edges"). Obviously, these edges will be the solution of the assignment problem. ...

    The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is an optimization problem that deals with assigning a set of facilities to a set of locations, considering the pairwise distances and flows between them. ... Initial basic feasible solution: Least Cost Cell Method will be used here to find the initial basic feasible solution. 3 min read.

  14. How to Solve an Assignment Problem Using the Hungarian Method

    In this lesson we learn what is an assignment problem and how we can solve it using the Hungarian method.

  15. PDF Chapter8 ASSIGNMENT PROBLEM

    An assignment problem is a particular case of transportation problem in which a number of operations are to be assigned to an equal number of operators, where each operator performs only one operation. The objective is to minimize overall cost or to maximize the overall profit for a given assignment schedule.

    Exercise 17 shows that the number of iterations is O(n2). To compare the Hungarian method to the exhaustive search method mentioned above, suppose that each iteration can be performed in one second. Then an assignment prob-lem with n = 30 can be solved in at most 302 = 900 seconds, or 15 minutes of computer time.
