چکیده

String problems arise in various applications ranging from text mining to biological sequence analysis. Many string problems are NP-hard. This motivates the search for (fixed-parameter) tractable special cases of these problems. We survey parameterized and multivariate algorithmics results for NP-hard string problems and identify challenges for future research.

Reflections on Multivariate Algorithmics and Problem Parameterization

Research on parameterized algorithmics for NP-hard problems has steadily grown over the last years. We survey and discuss how parameterized complexity analysis naturally develops into the field of multivariate algorithmics. Correspondingly, we describe how to perform a systematic investigation and exploitation of the “parameter space” of computationally hard problems. Algorithms and Complexity;...

Multivariate Algorithmics for Finding Cohesive Subnetworks

Community detection is an important task in the analysis of biological, social or technical networks. We survey different models of cohesive graphs, commonly referred to as clique relaxations, that are used in the detection of network communities. For each clique relaxation, we give an overview of basic model properties and of the complexity of the problem of finding large cohesive subgraphs un...

Towards Fully Multivariate Algorithmics: Some New Results and Directions in Parameter Ecology

This paper reports on three recent research directions that begin to explore the subject of fully multivariate algorithmics, meaning by this the largely uncharted theoretical landscape that lies beyond parameterized complexity and algorithmics — itself a natural two-dimensional generalization of the familiar one-dimensional framework of P versus NP .

Deconstructing intractability - A multivariate complexity analysis of interval constrained coloring

The NP-hard Interval Constrained Coloring (ICC) problem appears in the interpretation of experimental data in biochemistry dealing with protein fragments. Given a set of m integer intervals in the range 1 to n and a set of m associated multisets of colors (specifying for each interval the colors to be used for its elements), one asks whether there is a “consistent” coloring for all integer poin...

Iterative Compression for Exactly Solving NP-Hard Minimization Problems

We survey the conceptual framework and several applications of the iterative compression technique introduced in 2004 by Reed, Smith, and Vetta. This technique has proven very useful for achieving a number of recent breakthroughs in the development of fixed-parameter algorithms for NP-hard minimization problems. There is a clear potential for further applications as well as a further developmen...
