hopcroft-karp v0.0.2

Hopcroft-Karp

This is an implementation of the Hopcroft-Karp algorithm used in finding the maximum matching of a bipartite graph. It is useful for solving problems such as task assignment/scheduling.

Installation

npm install hopcroft-karp

Usage

The following example optimally assigns users to issues that they could be familiar with. The result will be an object literal that contains the matched pairs. If a pair is unmatched the vertex will be assigned to null.

import hopcroftKarp from 'hopcroft-karp'

const result = hopcroftKarp({
  'Gustav': ['#35', '#29'],
  'Hermann': ['#35', '#16'],
  'Malcolm': ['#41', '#24'],
  'Abraham': ['#35', '#16'],
  'Gunther': ['#29', '#24']
});
