News & Events Optimization Optimality in Matching Problems Optimality in Matching Problems Ran Duan & Chien-Chung Huang Optimality in Matching Problems Matching is a fundamental concept in computer science [...] stable matching, can be solved in polynomial time as well. Maximum weight matching: approximate approach In the maximum weight matching problem, we want the sum of weights of edges in the matching to be [...] to have a “good” matching – a matching in which the boys and girls would be happy with the current situation. One possible optimality condition to capture the “goodness” of a matching is that of the stability:

Suchanek Ontology Matching with PARIS In the last decade, the World Wide Web has been [...] ontology should be matched to the entity “A. Jacotey” in the other. Otherwise, computers would not be able to integrate them properly in the search for the singer’s concerts. This matching process is anything [...] to now, approaches for aligning ontologies have mainly considered only the matching of classes and relations, or the matching of entities. Our idea was that both of these strategies could complement each
indicates matching types. Correspondence problems and symmetry There are a large number of correspondence problems: The first aspect is how correspondences are established. The simplest option is to match geometry [...] we can fully automatically register multiple scans of a building (rigid matching) or of a scanned person (deformable matching), or automatically perform semantic tagging, for example, in large scale 3D [...] determine whether two shapes are essentially the same, and if so, which points are corresponding, i.e., matching equivalent geometry. We have addressed two aspects of this problem. The first is the primary problem
