Research Abstract |
We have developed a simple and branch and bound algorithm for finding a maximum clique of a graph. Our approach successively applies a pruning method based on greedy coloring followed by suitable arrangements for the vertices in consideration. The algorithm reduces the number of search tree nodes very effectively and hence runs fast. It is experimentally confirmed to run faster for a number of random graphs with up to 600 vertices and other graphs than several algorithms which have been appeared in the literature. This algorithm has been further improved by combining several methods. We have also developed a simple branch and bound algorithm for finding a maximum weight clique in a weighted graph. Its bounding rule is principally based upon a sequentail approximate coloring which has been applied in the above algorithms. Based upon Boltzmann machines, a new algorithm is given for approximately coloring a graph. Besides, the above algorithm for finding a maximum weight clique is applied for an RNA secondary structure prediction problem.
