商品描述

Network flow theory has been used across a number of disciplines, including theoretical computer science, operations research, and discrete math, to model not only problems in the transportation of goods and information, but also a wide range of applications from image segmentation problems in computer vision to deciding when a baseball team has been eliminated from contention. This graduate text and reference presents a succinct, unified view of a wide variety of efficient combinatorial algorithms for network flow problems, including many results not found in other books. It covers maximum flows, minimum-cost flows, generalized flows, multicommodity flows, and global minimum cuts and also presents recent work on computing electrical flows along with recent applications of these flows to classical problems in network flow theory.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

網路流理論已被應用於多個領域,包括理論計算機科學、運籌學和離散數學,不僅用來建模貨物和資訊的運輸問題,還涵蓋了從計算機視覺中的影像分割問題到決定一支棒球隊是否已經被淘汰的各種應用。本書是一本研究生教材和參考書,提供了對各種有效組合算法在網路流問題上的簡潔統一觀點,包括許多在其他書籍中找不到的結果。內容涵蓋最大流、最小成本流、廣義流、多商品流和全局最小切割,並介紹了計算電流的最新研究以及這些流在網路流理論中的經典問題上的最新應用。
