Modification-Fair Cluster Editing

no code implementations6 Dec 2021 Vincent Froese, Leon Kellerhals, Rolf Niedermeier

The classic Cluster Editing problem (also known as Correlation Clustering) asks to transform a given graph into a disjoint union of cliques (clusters) by a small number of edge modifications.

The Computational Complexity of ReLU Network Training Parameterized by Data Dimensionality

no code implementations18 May 2021 Vincent Froese, Christoph Hertrich, Rolf Niedermeier

In particular, we extend a known polynomial-time algorithm for constant $d$ and convex loss functions to a more general class of loss functions, matching our running time lower bounds also in these cases.

A Multivariate Complexity Analysis of the Material Consumption Scheduling Problem

no code implementations26 Feb 2021 Matthias Bentert, Robert Bredereck, Péter Györgyi, Andrzej Kaczmarczyk, Rolf Niedermeier

The NP-hard MATERIAL CONSUMPTION SCHEDULING Problem and closely related problems have been thoroughly studied since the 1980's.

A Refined Complexity Analysis of Fair Districting over Graphs

no code implementations23 Feb 2021 Niclas Boehmer, Tomohiro Koana, Rolf Niedermeier

We study the NP-hard Fair Connected Districting problem recently proposed by Stoica et al. [AAMAS 2020]: Partition a vertex-colored graph into k connected components (subsequently referred to as districts) so that in every district the most frequent color occurs at most a given number of times more often than the second most frequent color.

The Complexity of Gerrymandering Over Graphs: Paths and Trees

no code implementations17 Feb 2021 Matthias Bentert, Tomohiro Koana, Rolf Niedermeier

Roughly speaking, gerrymandering is the systematic manipulation of the boundaries of electoral districts to make a specific (political) party win as many districts as possible.

Bribery and Control in Stable Marriage

no code implementations9 Jul 2020 Niclas Boehmer, Robert Bredereck, Klaus Heeger, Rolf Niedermeier

We initiate the study of external manipulations in Stable Marriage by considering several manipulative actions as well as several manipulation goals.

As Time Goes By: Reflections on Treewidth for Temporal Graphs

no code implementations28 Apr 2020 Till Fluschnik, Hendrik Molter, Rolf Niedermeier, Malte Renken, Philipp Zschoche

Treewidth is arguably the most important structural graph parameter leading to algorithmically beneficial graph decompositions.

Comparing Temporal Graphs Using Dynamic Time Warping

1 code implementation15 Oct 2018 Vincent Froese, Brijnesh Jain, Rolf Niedermeier, Malte Renken

Recognizing patterns in temporal graphs requires a proximity measure to compare different temporal graphs.

Complexity of Shift Bribery in Committee Elections

no code implementations7 Jan 2016 Robert Bredereck, Piotr Faliszewski, Rolf Niedermeier, Nimrod Talmon

Given an election, a preferred candidate p, and a budget, the SHIFT BRIBERY problem asks whether p can win the election after shifting p higher in some voters' preference orders.

Elections with Few Voters: Candidate Control Can Be Easy

no code implementations28 Nov 2014 Jiehua Chen, Piotr Faliszewski, Rolf Niedermeier, Nimrod Talmon

We study the computational complexity of candidate control in elections with few voters, that is, we consider the parameterized complexity of candidate control in elections with respect to the number of voters as a parameter.
