Max flow algorithms

LightGraphsFlows.boykov_kolmogorov_implFunction
boykov_kolmogorov_impl(residual_graph, source, target, capacity_matrix)

Compute the max-flow/min-cut between source and target for residual_graph using the Boykov-Kolmogorov algorithm.

Return the maximum flow in the network, the flow matrix and the partition {S,T} in the form of a vector of 0's, 1's and 2's.

LightGraphsFlows.discharge!Function
discharge!(residual_graph, v, capacity_matrix, flow_matrix, excess, height, active, count, Q)

Drain the excess flow out of node v. Run the gap heuristic or relabel the vertex if the excess remains non-zero.

source
LightGraphsFlows.gap!Function
gap!(residual_graph, h, excess, height, active, count, Q)

Implement the push-relabel gap heuristic. Relabel all vertices above a cutoff height. Reduce the number of relabels required.

Requires arguments:

  • residual_graph::DiGraph # the input graph
  • h::Int # cutoff height
  • excess::AbstractVector
  • height::AbstractVector{Int}
  • active::AbstractVector{Bool}
  • count::AbstractVector{Int}
  • Q::AbstractVector

LightGraphsFlows.push_flow!Function
push_flow!(residual_graph, u, v, capacity_matrix, flow_matrix, excess, height, active, Q)

Using residual_graph with capacities in capacity_matrix, push as much flow as possible through the given edge(u, v). Requires preallocated flow_matrix matrix, and excess, height,active, andQ` vectors.

source
LightGraphsFlows.relabel!Function
relabel!(residual_graph, v, capacity_matrix, flow_matrix, excess, height, active, count, Q)

Relabel a node v with respect to its neighbors to produce an admissable edge.

source
LightGraphsFlows.blocking_flow!Function
blocking_flow!(residual_graph, source, target, capacity_matrix, flow-matrix, P)

Like blocking_flow, but requires a preallocated parent vector P.

source
LightGraphsFlows.blocking_flowMethod
blocking_flow(residual_graph, source, target, capacity_matrix, flow-matrix)

Use BFS to identify a blocking flow in the residual_graph with current flow matrix flow_matrixand then backtrack from target to source, augmenting flow along all possible paths.

source
LightGraphsFlows.dinic_implFunction
function dinic_impl(residual_graph, source, target, capacity_matrix)

Compute the maximum flow between the source and target for residual_graph with edge flow capacities in capacity_matrix using Dinic's Algorithm. Return the value of the maximum flow as well as the final flow matrix.

source
LightGraphsFlows.augment_path!Method
augment_path!(path, flow_matrix, capacity_matrix)

Calculate the amount by which flow can be augmented in the given path. Augment the flow and returns the augment value.

source
LightGraphsFlows.edmonds_karp_implFunction
edmonds_karp_impl(residual_graph, source, target, capacity_matrix)

Compute the maximum flow in flow graph residual_graph between source and target and capacities defined in capacity_matrix using the Edmonds-Karp algorithm. Return the value of the maximum flow as well as the final flow matrix.

source
LightGraphsFlows.fetch_pathFunction
fetch_path(residual_graph, source, target, flow_matrix, capacity_matrix)

Use bidirectional BFS to look for augmentable paths from source to target in residual_graph. Return the vertex where the two BFS searches intersect, the parent table of the path, the successor table of the path found, and a flag indicating success (0 => success; 1 => no path to target, 2 => no path to source).

source
LightGraphsFlows.fetch_path!Function
fetch_path!(residual_graph, source, target, flow_matrix, capacity_matrix, P, S)

Like fetch_path, but requires preallocated parent vector P and successor vector S.
