Abstract
In the Directed Feedback Vertex Set (DFVS) problem, one is given a directed graph G = (V,E) and wants to find a minimum cardinality set S ⊆ V such that G-S is acyclic. DFVS is a fundamental problem in computer science and finds applications in areas such as deadlock detection. The problem was the subject of the 2022 PACE coding challenge. We develop a novel exact algorithm for the problem that is tailored to perform well on instances that are mostly bi-directed. For such instances, we adapt techniques from the well-researched vertex cover problem. Our core idea is an iterative reduction to vertex cover. To this end, we also develop a new reduction rule that reduces the number of not bi-directed edges. With the resulting algorithm, we were able to win third place in the exact track of the PACE challenge. We perform computational experiments and compare the running time to other exact algorithms, in particular to the winning algorithm in PACE. Our experiments show that we outpace the other algorithms on instances that have a low density of uni-directed edges.

PACE Solver Description
PACE Solver Description: Mount Doom - An Exact Solver for Directed Feedback Vertex Set

Abstract
In this document we describe the techniques we used and implemented for our submission to the Parameterized Algorithms and Computational Experiments Challenge (PACE) 2022. The given problem is Directed Feedback Vertex Set (DFVS), where one is given a directed graph G = (V,E) and wants to find a minimum S ⊆ V such that G-S is acyclic. We approach this problem by first exhaustively applying a set of reduction rules. In order to find a minimum DFVS on the remaining instance, we create and solve a series of Vertex Cover instances.

Storage and Retrieval of Individual Genomes

Authors: Veli Mäkinen, Gonzalo Navarro, Jouni Sirén, and Niko Välimäki

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
A repetitive sequence collection is one where portions of a emph{base sequence} of length $n$ are repeated many times with small variations, forming a collection of total length $N$. Examples of such collections are version control data and genome sequences of individuals, where the differences can be expressed by lists of basic edit operations. Flexible and efficient data analysis on a such typically huge collection is plausible using suffix trees. However, suffix tree occupies $O(N log N)$ bits, which very soon inhibits in-memory analyses. Recent advances in full-text emph{self-indexing} reduce the space of suffix tree to $O(N log sigma)$ bits, where $sigma$ is the alphabet size. In practice, the space reduction is more than $10$-fold for example on suffix tree of Human Genome. However, this reduction remains a constant factor when more sequences are added to the collection We develop a new self-index suited for the repetitive sequence collection setting. Its expected space requirement depends only on the length $n$ of the base sequence and the number $s$ of variations in its repeated copies. That is, the space reduction is no longer constant, but depends on $N/n$. We believe the structure developed in this work will provide a fundamental basis for storage and retrieval of individual genomes as they become available due to rapid progress in the sequencing technologies.
