Solving Directed Feedback Vertex Set by Iterative Reduction to Vertex Cover

Authors: Sebastian Angrick, Ben Bals, Katrin Casel, Sarel Cohen, Tobias Friedrich, Niko Hastrich, Theresa Hradilak, Davis Issac, Otto Kißig, Jonas Schmidt, and Leo Wendt

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 265, 21st International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2023)

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.

Cut Paths and Their Remainder Structure, with Applications

Authors: Massimo Cairo, Shahbaz Khan, Romeo Rizzi, Sebastian Schmidt, Alexandru I. Tomescu, and Elia C. Zirondelli

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 254, 40th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2023)

Abstract
In a strongly connected graph G = (V,E), a cut arc (also called strong bridge) is an arc e ∈ E whose removal makes the graph no longer strongly connected. Equivalently, there exist u,v ∈ V, such that all u-v walks contain e. Cut arcs are a fundamental graph-theoretic notion, with countless applications, especially in reachability problems. In this paper we initiate the study of cut paths, as a generalisation of cut arcs, which we naturally define as those paths P for which there exist u,v ∈ V, such that all u-v walks contain P as subwalk. We first prove various properties of cut paths and define their remainder structures, which we use to present a simple O(m)-time verification algorithm for a cut path (|V| = n, |E| = m). Secondly, we apply cut paths and their remainder structures to improve several reachability problems from bioinformatics, as follows. A walk is called safe if it is a subwalk of every node-covering closed walk of a strongly connected graph. Multi-safety is defined analogously, by considering node-covering sets of closed walks instead. We show that cut paths provide simple O(m)-time algorithms verifying if a walk is safe or multi-safe. For multi-safety, we present the first linear time algorithm, while for safety, we present a simple algorithm where the state-of-the-art employed complex data structures. Finally we show that the simultaneous computation of remainder structures of all subwalks of a cut path can be performed in linear time, since they are related in a structured way. These properties yield an O(mn)-time algorithm outputting all maximal multi-safe walks, improving over the state-of-the-art algorithm running in time O(m²+n³). The results of this paper only scratch the surface in the study of cut paths, and we believe a rich structure of a graph can be revealed, considering the perspective of a path, instead of just an arc.

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 249, 17th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2022)

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.

Eulertigs: Minimum Plain Text Representation of k-mer Sets Without Repetitions in Linear Time

Authors: Sebastian Schmidt and Jarno N. Alanko

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 242, 22nd International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics (WABI 2022)

Abstract
A fundamental operation in computational genomics is to reduce the input sequences to their constituent k-mers. For maximum performance of downstream applications it is important to store the k-mers in small space, while keeping the representation easy and efficient to use (i.e. without k-mer repetitions and in plain text). Recently, heuristics were presented to compute a near-minimum such representation. We present an algorithm to compute a minimum representation in optimal (linear) time and use it to evaluate the existing heuristics. For that, we present a formalisation of arc-centric bidirected de Bruijn graphs and carefully prove that it accurately models the k-mer spectrum of the input. Our algorithm first constructs the de Bruijn graph in linear time in the length of the input strings (for a fixed-size alphabet). Then it uses a Eulerian-cycle-based algorithm to compute the minimum representation, in time linear in the size of the output.

Genome Assembly, from Practice to Theory: Safe, Complete and Linear-Time

Authors: Massimo Cairo, Romeo Rizzi, Alexandru I. Tomescu, and Elia C. Zirondelli

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 198, 48th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2021)

Abstract
Genome assembly asks to reconstruct an unknown string from many shorter substrings of it. Even though it is one of the key problems in Bioinformatics, it is generally lacking major theoretical advances. Its hardness stems both from practical issues (size and errors of real data), and from the fact that problem formulations inherently admit multiple solutions. Given these, at their core, most state-of-the-art assemblers are based on finding non-branching paths (unitigs) in an assembly graph. While such paths constitute only partial assemblies, they are likely to be correct. More precisely, if one defines a genome assembly solution as a closed arc-covering walk of the graph, then unitigs appear in all solutions, being thus safe partial solutions. Until recently, it was open what are all the safe walks of an assembly graph. Tomescu and Medvedev (RECOMB 2016) characterized all such safe walks (omnitigs), thus giving the first safe and complete genome assembly algorithm. Even though omnitig finding was later improved to quadratic time, it remained open whether the crucial linear-time feature of finding unitigs can be attained with omnitigs. We answer this question affirmatively, by describing a surprising O(m)-time algorithm to identify all maximal omnitigs of a graph with n nodes and m arcs, notwithstanding the existence of families of graphs with Θ(mn) total maximal omnitig size. This is based on the discovery of a family of walks (macrotigs) with the property that all the non-trivial omnitigs are univocal extensions of subwalks of a macrotig. This has two consequences: (1) A linear-time output-sensitive algorithm enumerating all maximal omnitigs. (2) A compact O(m) representation of all maximal omnitigs, which allows, e.g., for O(m)-time computation of various statistics on them. Our results close a long-standing theoretical question inspired by practical genome assemblers, originating with the use of unitigs in 1995. We envision our results to be at the core of a reverse transfer from theory to practical and complete genome assembly programs, as has been the case for other key Bioinformatics problems.

Can You Walk This? Eulerian Tours and IDEA Instructions (Media Exposition)

Authors: Aaron T. Becker, Sándor P. Fekete, Matthias Konitzny, Sebastian Morr, and Arne Schmidt

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 189, 37th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2021)

Abstract
We illustrate and animate the classic problem of deciding whether a given graph has an Eulerian path. Starting with a collection of instances of increasing difficulty, we present a set of pictorial instructions, and show how they can be used to solve all instances. These IDEA instructions ("A series of nonverbal algorithm assembly instructions") have proven to be both entertaining for experts and enlightening for novices. We (w)rap up with a song and dance to Euler’s original instance.

Worst-Case Optimal Covering of Rectangles by Disks

Authors: Sándor P. Fekete, Utkarsh Gupta, Phillip Keldenich, Christian Scheffer, and Sahil Shah

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 164, 36th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2020)

Abstract
We provide the solution for a fundamental problem of geometric optimization by giving a complete characterization of worst-case optimal disk coverings of rectangles: For any λ ≥ 1, the critical covering area A^*(λ) is the minimum value for which any set of disks with total area at least A^*(λ) can cover a rectangle of dimensions λ× 1. We show that there is a threshold value λ₂ = √{√7/2 - 1/4} ≈ 1.035797…, such that for λ < λ₂ the critical covering area A^*(λ) is A^*(λ) = 3π(λ²/16 + 5/32 + 9/(256λ²)), and for λ ≥ λ₂, the critical area is A^*(λ)=π(λ²+2)/4; these values are tight. For the special case λ=1, i.e., for covering a unit square, the critical covering area is 195π/256 ≈ 2.39301…. The proof uses a careful combination of manual and automatic analysis, demonstrating the power of the employed interval arithmetic technique.

Vehicle Capacity-Aware Rerouting of Passengers in Delay Management

Authors: Matthias Müller-Hannemann, Ralf Rückert, and Sebastian S. Schmidt

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 75, 19th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2019)

Abstract
Due to the significant growth in passenger numbers, higher vehicle load factors and crowding become more and more of an issue in public transport. For safety reasons and because of an unsatisfactory discomfort, standing of passengers is rather limited in high-speed long-distance trains. In case of delays and (partially) cancelled trains, many passengers have to be rerouted. State-of-the-art rerouting merely focuses on minimizing delay at the destination of affected passengers but neglects limited vehicle capacities and crowding. Not considering capacities allows using highly efficient shortest path algorithms like RAPTOR or the connection scan algorithm (CSA). In this paper, we study the more complicated scenario where passengers compete for scarce capacities. This can be modeled as a piece-wise linear, convex cost multi-source multi-commodity unsplittable flow problem where each passenger group which has to be rerouted corresponds to a commodity. We compare a path-based integer linear programming (ILP) model with a heuristic greedy approach. In experiments with instances from German long-distance train traffic, we quantify the importance of considering vehicle capacities in case of train cancellations. We observe a tradeoff: The ILP approach slightly outperforms the greedy approach and both are much better than capacity unaware rerouting in quality, while the greedy algorithm runs more than three times faster.

Recoverable Robust Timetable Information

Authors: Marc Goerigk, Sacha Heße, Matthias Müller-Hannemann, Marie Schmidt, and Anita Schöbel

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 33, 13th Workshop on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (2013)

Abstract
Timetable information is the process of determining a suitable travel route for a passenger. Due to delays in the original timetable, in practice it often happens that the travel route cannot be used as originally planned. For a passenger being already en route, it would hence be useful to know about alternatives that ensure that his/her destination can be reached. In this work we propose a recoverable robust approach to timetable information; i.e., we aim at finding travel routes that can easily be updated when delays occur during the journey. We present polynomial-time algorithms for this problem and evaluate the performance of the routes obtained this way on schedule data of the German train network of 2013 and simulated delay scenarios.

Singleton Tree Grammars (STGs) have recently drawn considerable attention. They generalize the sharing of subtrees known from DAGs to sharing of connected subgraphs. This allows to obtain smaller in-memory representations of trees than with DAGs. In the past years some important tree algorithms were proved to perform efficiently (without decompression) over STGs; e.g., type checking, equivalence checking, and unification. We present a tool that implements an extension of the unification algorithm for STGs. This algorithm makes extensive use of equivalence checking. For the latter we implemented two variants, the classical exact one and a recent randomized one. Our experiments show that the randomized algorithm performs better. The running times are also compared to those of unification over uncompressed trees.
