Linking the Comparison and Graphical Approaches to Bipartite Matching

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Bipartite record linkage has the goal of identifying observations referring to the same individual, called coreferent observations, across two distinct non‐duplicated datasets. The two main approaches to solve this task are the Fellegi–Sunter model, which relies on pairwise comparisons of observations, and the graphical record linkage model ...

Exact and metaheuristic approaches to minimizing makespan in parallel machine scheduling with conflicting jobs

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We address the scheduling conflicting jobs on parallel identical machines problem with makespan minimization, a classical and computationally challenging variant of parallel machine scheduling. We develop and evaluate three distinct solution methodologies: a novel constraint programming (CP) formulation, and two metaheuristics: a multi ...

Partitioning a permutation graph: algorithms and an application. [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we discuss the problem of partitioning a permutation graph into cliques of bounded size, and describe a real-life application of this problem encountered at a manufacturing company.

How to optimise tournament draws: The case of the FIFA World Cup

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The organisers of major sports competitions use different policies with respect to constraints in the group draw. Our paper aims to rationalise these choices by analysing the trade‐off between attractiveness (the number of games played by teams from the same geographic zone) and fairness (the departure of the draw mechanism from a uniform ...

The Architecture of Consolidation: Nests of Corporate Control in the Agrochemical Network

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on agricultural consolidation tends to equate corporate control with the dominance of a few large firms. We take an alternative approach that examines control through the explosive growth of legally distinct firms that fragment accountability. Using a new global dataset of 6982 entities linked to BASF, Bayer, Corteva, Dow, DuPont, FMC,

Cycles in bipartite graphs

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1981
AbstractFor k an integer, let G(a, b, k) denote a simple bipartite graph with bipartition (A, B) where |A| = a ≥ 2, |B| = b ≥ k ≥ 2, and each vertex of A has degree at least k. We prove two results concerning the existence of cycles in G(a, b, k).

Long‐Term Metabolic Outcomes Following Bariatric Surgery: A Systematic Review, Meta‐Analysis, and Meta‐Regression

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bariatric surgery (BS) has short‐ and medium‐term benefits in improving metabolic syndrome (MetS) components, but its long‐term impact remains incompletely characterized. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to quantify the long‐term effects of BS (≥ 5 years) on fasting blood glucose (FBG), HDL cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), waist ...

The maximum number of edges of bipartite 1-planar graphs with 1-disk drawings

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics
A graph is 1-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. Let G be a bipartite 1-planar graph with bipartition sets X and Y. A 1-disk [Formula: see text] drawing of G is a 1-planar drawing such that all vertices
