Learning Universe Model for Partial Matching Networks over Multiple Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We consider the general setting for partial matching of two or multiple graphs, in the sense that not necessarily all the nodes in one graph can find their correspondences in another graph and vice versa. We take a universe matching perspective to this ubiquitous problem, whereby each node is either matched into an anchor in a virtual universe graph or

The Matching Number and Hamiltonicity of Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The matching number of a graph G is the size of a maximum matching in the graph. In this note, we present a sufficient condition involving the matching number for the Hamiltonicity of graphs.

Popular Matchings with One-Sided Bias [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Let $G = (A \cup B,E)$ be a bipartite graph where the set $A$ consists of agents or main players and the set $B$ consists of jobs or secondary players. Every vertex has a strict ranking of its neighbors. A matching $M$ is popular if for any matching $N$, the number of vertices that prefer $M$ to $N$ is at least the number that prefer $N$ to $M ...

Optimal caliper widths for propensity-score matching when estimating differences in means and differences in proportions in observational studies

open access: yesPharmaceutical statistics, 2010
In a study comparing the effects of two treatments, the propensity score is the probability of assignment to one treatment conditional on a subject's measured baseline covariates.

Maximum Matchings and Popularity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Let $G$ be a bipartite graph where every node has a strict ranking of its neighbors. For every node, its preferences over neighbors extend naturally to preferences over matchings. Matching $N$ is more popular than matching $M$ if the number of nodes that prefer $N$ to $M$ is more than the number that prefer $M$ to $N$.

Why Propensity Scores Should Not Be Used for Matching

open access: yesPolitical Analysis, 2019
We show that propensity score matching (PSM), an enormously popular method of preprocessing data for causal inference, often accomplishes the opposite of its intended goal—thus increasing imbalance, inefficiency, model dependence, and bias.

GA-Net: Guided Aggregation Net for End-To-End Stereo Matching [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019
In the stereo matching task, matching cost aggregation is crucial in both traditional methods and deep neural network models in order to accurately estimate disparities. We propose two novel neural net layers, aimed at capturing local and the whole-image

Propensity Score-Matching Methods for Nonexperimental Causal Studies

open access: yesReview of Economics and Statistics, 2002
This paper considers causal inference and sample selection bias in nonexperimental settings in which (i) few units in the nonexperimental comparison group are comparable to the treatment units, and (ii) selecting a subset of comparison units similar to ...

S-Match: an Algorithm and an Implementation of Semantic Matching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We think of Match as an operator which takes two graph-like structures and produces a mapping between those nodes of the two graphs that correspond semantically to each other. Semantic matching is a novel approach where semantic correspondences are discovered by computing and returning as a result, the semantic information implicitly or explicitly ...

Pattern Matching in Trees and Strings [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
We study the design of efficient algorithms for combinatorial pattern matching. More concretely, we study algorithms for tree matching, string matching, and string matching in compressed texts.
