    More details Close

    We introduce the Multi-Objective Combinatorial Reconfiguration Optimization Problem (MO-CROP), and propose an Answer Set Programming (ASP) based approach for its solution. MO-CROP involves finding the Pareto-optimal sequences (or Pareto front) of adjacent feasible solutions between two given feasible solutions of a combinatorial problem, considering both cost and length. Our algorithm is compactly implemented through multi-shot ASP solving, and its implementing solver optirecon provides an effective tool for solving MO-CROP. As a concrete example of MO-CROP, we present an ASP encoding for solving the multi-objective independent set reconfiguration optimization problem. Experimental results on the benchmark set from the recent CoRe Challenge demonstrate our approach’s ability to capture diverse optimal sequences that reveal trade-offs between cost and length, a capability often lacking in traditional combinatorial reconfiguration methods.

    本年度は,Kempeら (2002年) が導入した時間ネットワークの概念において,その関連する遷移問題を研究した.この概念は,分散通信などネットワーク上の時間制約を解析するために導入され,時間ラベル付き有向グラフによって表現される.本研究では,時間制約付き有向全域木を対象とした遷移問題を解析した.これまでの研究に依って,時間制約の条件がない場合には,無向グラフであっても有向グラフであっても,任意の2つの全域木は互いに遷移可能であると知られている.すなわち,これら全域木からなる解空間グラフは常に連結である.加えて,無向・有向のいずれのグラフであっても,全域木の最短遷移問題も多項式時間で解けることが知られている.それとは対照的に,本研究では,時間制約を導入した場合には,解空間グラフは非連結となり得ることをまず示した.次に,そのような解空間グラフであっても,与えられた2つの時間制約付き有向全域木が互いに遷移可能であるかどうか(すなわち,到達判定)が,多項式時間で解けることを示した.その一方で,時間制約がある場合には最短遷移問題がNP困難であることを示し,時間制約の有無に依って計算複雑性が変わるという対比を示すことができた. 本年度は他にも,グラフ上のラベル付きトークン遷移問題に関する研究も行った.この問題では多項式長の遷移系列の存在が示せるため,最短遷移問題が研究対象となる.この問題は,量子プログラムのコンパイラ設計に現れる量子ビットルーティング問題として,これまでも研究されてきた.既存研究では実践的なアプローチが主であったが,本研究では計算複雑性の理論的な解析に取り組み,NP困難性や特殊ケースにおける多項式時間アルゴリズム等を開発した.

    To facilitate smooth collaboration among researchers with backgrounds in computer science, engineering, and mathematics, and to widely publicize their research outcomes, we effectively managed this research project. To promote inter-group collaboration, we organized six project meetings, 35 seminars, and published five issues of newsletters. All of these activities were made publicly available. Additionally, we hosted numerous events across various fields. These included three co-located workshops at the international conference ICALP, four online one-day international workshops, two international programming competitions on combinatorial reconfiguration, two student symposia on combinatorial reconfiguration, and four outreach events.

    In this research, based in the field of computer science, we have published 73 peer-reviewed papers over a period of 3.5 years, including the carryover period. Through these studies, we were not only able to advance case studies of algorithms for various combinatorial reconfiguration problems, but we also succeeded in achieving our goal of establishing algorithmic meta-theorems for combinatorial reconfiguration. Additionally, we have made research advancements by incorporating enumeration and distributed computing methods from closely related fields into combinatorial reconfiguration. Furthermore, we have collaborated with other project groups and researchers from outside the project, enabling us to tackle various expansions in the algorithmic theory of combinatorial reconfiguration.

    In recent decades, computational power has improved remarkably. However, contrary to what most users would imagine, the main factor behind the improvement in the speed at which computers solve problems is not the improvement in hardware performance, but the development of the software on top of it, especially algorithms and data structures, which has made a significant contribution. In this research theme, we first demonstrated the theoretical difficulty of various combinatorial optimization problems, and then used the problem properties revealed in the process to design and develop algorithms for solving the problems efficiently.

    We studied a recently proposed variant of vehicle routing problems which takes the customers’ regrets as the objective function. We developed algorithms for the problem using structures of input graphs, and also proved some computational hardness and inapproximability. In addition, we introduced some generalized variant, and examined an extension of our algorithms in order to put our developed methods in place. Our approximation method for trees is best possible from the viewpoint of approximation ratio, because one can choose an arbitrarily better ratio.

    本年度は,シュタイナー木の遷移問題について,その計算困難性と容易性を解析した.特に,スプリットグラフでは計算困難であるが,区間グラフでは計算容易であることを示しており,グラフ構造の観点から興味深い対比を与えている.すなわち,スプリットグラフはクリークが木(スター)構造を成しているグラフであり,区間グラフはクリークがパス構造を成しているグラフである.どちらのグラフも辺が密であり,比較的近い構造を持つが,その計算複雑さに差があることを示した. また,(リスト)辺彩色の遷移問題について,その計算困難性を示した.辺ごとに使用可能な色が限定されない辺彩色の遷移問題については,その計算困難性が一切知られていなかったが,本研究では初めて計算困難性を示すことに成功した.辺ごとに使用可能な色集合が与えられるリスト辺彩色の遷移問題は,従来研究では,彩色に使用できる色数が3色以下であれば計算容易であり,6色以上であれば計算困難であることが知られていた.すなわち,色数が4色と5色の場合は未解決であったが,本研究では,どちらも計算困難であることを証明した.これにより,色数に基づく計算困難性と容易性を完全に特徴づけることに成功した. これら(リスト)辺彩色の遷移問題に関する計算困難性の証明は,遷移問題における帰着手法の特徴を与えることで達成している.すなわち,帰着を構成する際に,解空間の連結性を「内部連結」と「外部連結」という二つの概念を用いて保証した.これにより,複雑な帰着の正当性を計算機によって検証することを可能とした.実際,本研究で与えた証明では,可能な辺彩色が約30万種類もあり,計算機による検証なしでは証明は難しかったであろう.

    We modeled the following situation as a graph problem: In a network, we wish to find a way of data distributions from servers to all users to avoid any congestion of network links. We studied the complexity status of this problem from the viewpoint of graph structures, and clarified how the complexity status depends on the number of cycles or the number of servers in a graph. In many cases, this problem is computationally intractable, and hence we gave pseudo-polynomial-time algorithms based on a dynamic programming method and fixed-parameter algorithms.

    本年度は,点彩色を一般化した「リスト点彩色」の遷移問題に対して,詳細な解析を与えることができた.グラフ構造の指標として「パス幅」と呼ばれるパラメータがあるが,パス幅が2以上であればリスト点彩色の遷移問題はPSPACE完全であり,パス幅が1であれば多項式時間で解けることを示した.すなわち,これはリスト点彩色の遷移問題の計算困難性と容易性を,入力グラフのパス幅の観点から特徴づけたことになる.パス幅1の入力グラフに対する多項式時間アルゴリズムは動的計画法に基づいており,遷移問題に対して動的計画法を適用した例としても評価できる. <br> また,独立点集合の遷移問題に対しては,固定パラメータ容易性(FPT)の観点から,研究を進めることができた.この問題は,平面グラフにおいてPSPACE完全であることが示されており,解空間グラフの直径は超多項式長になる.しかし本研究では,独立点集合のサイズのみをパラメータとして,平面グラフに対するFPTアルゴリズムを与えた.この研究成果により,解空間グラフの直径が超多項式長になることを単に示すだけでなく,パラメータにどのように依存するのか解析することができた.特に,本研究では昨年度,一般のグラフに対しては,独立点集合のサイズのみをパラメータとしたFPTアルゴリズムを持ちそうにないことを証明しており,今年度の研究と対比させることで,入力グラフの構造と計算困難性の関係をより具体的に解析することができた. <br> この他にも,点彩色と関連が深いL(2,1)ラベリングなど,様々な遷移問題に対してアルゴリズムを開発することで,解空間グラフの直径が多項式長で抑えられる場合を明らかにし,計算困難である場合との対比を可能とした.特に,本研究では,入力グラフの構造を上手く利用することで,効率のよいアルゴリズムを多数開発することができた.

    This research develops efficient algorithms for the partitioning, coloring and drawing problems of graphs, and applies them to practical problems in real world. One of the representative results is an algorithm for the fairest connected partition problem. It partitions a weighted graph G to a specified number of connected subgraphs by deleting edges from G so that the difference between the maximum sum of weights in a subgraph and the minimum one is as small as possible.

    In this research, we study problems of finding a step-by-step transformation between two feasible solutions of a problem such that all intermediate results are also feasible. In particular, we study such problems for knapsack problem, which is one of the most fundamental problems in theoretical computer science, and for graph partitioning problem with supply and demand, which has some applications to power delivery network. We first analyzed the computational hardness of these problems, and then gave approximationalgorithms. Our approximation algorithms are best possible from the viewpoint of approximation ratio.

    In this research, we obtained heuristic algorithms which runs in reasonable time from the viewpoint of practical applications. We dealt with two graph partition problems, called the power-supply problem and the uniform partition problem. For the power-supply problem, we gave an approximation algorithm, called an FPTAS. Based on the FPTAS, we also gave a heuristic algorithm. For the uniform partition problem, we gave a polynomial-time algorithm which finds an optimal solution for trees.

    本年度は,主に選挙区割問題などに応用がある「グラフの均一分割問題」について研究を行った.この問題は,点に整数の重みが付いたグラフが与えられたとき,グラフから辺を削除し,各連結成分に含まれる点の重みの合計が均一になるように分割する問題である.本研究では,各点に2つ以上の重みが与えられていても,部分k木の均一分割問題が擬多項式時間で解けることを示した.また,2つ以上与えられた点の重みのうち,分割を求める際には1つだけを自由に選択できる場合についても考察を行い,擬多項式時間アルゴリズムを与えることができた.これらの結果は,IEICE Trans.on Information and Systemsに掲載になった. また,電力系統の配電融通問題などに応用がある「需要点と供給点のあるグラフの分割問題」も研究を進めた.この問題は,需要点と供給点のあるグラフに対し,電力が供給されない需要点ができてしまうとき,供給されている需要点の需要量の合計を最大にする最大化問題である.この問題の近似可能性を明らかにした論文を,海外の学術雑誌に投稿した.

    In this project, we consider the coloring problem, the disjoint path problem and the drawing problem for structured graphs such as trees, series-parallel graphs and partial k-trees, and succeeded in obtaining efficient algorithms for these classes of graphs. We also establish the foundation for the unified methodology of designing efficient algorithms for structured graphs. For trees, we obtain a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for the partitioning problem of trees having supply and demand. For series-parallel graphs, we first obtain a sufficient condition for the existence of a list total coloring, and then give a linear-time algorithm to find a list total coloring. For partial k-trees, we succeeded in obtaining three algorithms : the first is a linear-time algorithm for the total coloring problem ; the second is a pseudo-polynomial-time algorithm for the uniform partitioning problem ; and the third is a pseudo-polynomial-time algorithm for the partitioning problem on graphs with supply and demand. Concerning graph drawing, we obtain a linear-time algorithm to find an orthogonal drawing of series-parallel graphs with the minimum number of bends, and give a graph decomposition applicable to a convex drawing. In conclusion, we succeeded in designing efficient algorithms for various problems, and laid the foundation of unified methodology to design efficient algorithms for combinatorial problems, especially for the partition problems to edge-disjoint subgraphs. These results are published in seven journal papers and five proceedings papers of international conferences.

    本研究では,グラフの点に供給点または需要点の役割が与えられ,それぞれに供給量と需要量という重みが与えられた重み付きグラフを扱った.そのようなグラフに対し,需要と供給の条件を満たすようにグラフを分割するアルゴリズムを開発した. まず,木のグラフ分割問題に関してまとめた論文が,学術雑誌に採録された. 次に,直並列グラフと呼ばれるグラフのクラスに対し,グラフ分割問題を解くアルゴリズムの開発・解析を行った.グラフ分割問題は木に対してさえNP困難であり,したがって直並列グラフに対し効率のよいアルゴリズムはありそうにない.そこで,本研究では擬多項式時間アルゴリズムの開発を行った.その結果は,2005年5月開催の国際会議にて発表し,現在学術雑誌に投稿中である. また,直並列グラフに対し,より一般的な分割問題を解くアルゴリズムを与えた.この問題では,今まで上限のみ指定することができた連結成分の重みの和の制限を,上限と下限の両方を同時に指定することができるようにした.さらに,グラフの点に複数個の重みが割当てられている場合にも,効率よく解けることを示した.この結果は,現在国際会議に投稿するように準備中である.
