Graph Transformation Approach for the Shortest Path Search and Length Calculation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a graph with labels of edges. A label means the length of an edge. We present a method to compute the length of the shortest path between two vertices using graph transformations. We introduce graph transformation rules which preserve the length of paths. Reducing to a simple graph which contains two vertices, we finally calculate the length of the shortest path of those two vertices. There were several algorithms for computing network reliabilities using graph transformations. We use the same framework as those algorithms for applying the graph transformation rules, but our transformation rules do not calculate the network reliabilities but calculate the length of the shortest path.

Shortest Path Problem with Gamma Probability Distribution Arc Length
We propose a dynamic program to find the shortest path in a network having gamma probability distributions as arc lengths. Two operators of sum and comparison need to be adapted for the proposed dynamic program. Convolution approach is used to sum two gamma probability distributions being employed in the dynamic program.
متن کاملFinding the Shortest Hamiltonian Path for Iranian Cities Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing and Ant Colony Optimization Algorithms
The traveling salesman problem is a well-known and important combinatorial optimization problem. The goal of this problem is to find the shortest Hamiltonian path that visits each city in a given list exactly once and then returns to the starting city. In this paper, for the first time, the shortest Hamiltonian path is achieved for 1071 Iranian cities. For solving this large-scale problem, tw...
متن کاملAn Effective Path-aware Approach for Keyword Search over Data Graphs
Abstract—Keyword Search is known as a user-friendly alternative for structured languages to retrieve information from graph-structured data. Efficient retrieving of relevant answers to a keyword query and effective ranking of these answers according to their relevance are two main challenges in the keyword search over graph-structured data. In this paper, a novel scoring function is proposed, w...
متن کاملUpdating Shortest Paths
Moving target search is a state space approach for nding non-stationary goals. The plot is given by a realtime situation in which the target has to be captured by a so-called problem solver. The model chosen in the trailblazer search allows the problem solver to maintain a map of the explored graph and to move faster than the target. Within this map the shortest paths to a current position are ...
متن کاملSemi-supervised Learning with Density Based Distances
We present a simple, yet effective, approach to Semi-Supervised Learning. Our approach is based on estimating density-based distances (DBD) using a shortest path calculation on a graph. These Graph-DBD estimates can then be used in any distancebased supervised learning method, such as Nearest Neighbor methods and SVMs with RBF kernels. In order to apply the method to very large data sets, we al...
