Hungarian Algorithm
#!/usr/bin/python
# ecole polytechnique - c.durr - 2009
# Kuhn-Munkres, The hungarian algorithm. Complexity O(n^3)
# Computes a max weight perfect matching in a bipartite graph
# for min weight matching, simply negate the weights.
""" Global variables:
n = number of vertices on each side
U,V vertex sets
lu,lv are the labels of U and V resp.
the matching is encoded as
- a mapping Mu from U to V,
- and Mv from V to U.
The algorithm repeatedly builds an alternating tree, rooted in a
free vertex u0. S is the set of vertices in U covered by the tree.
For every vertex v, T[v] is the parent in the tree and Mv[v] the
child.
The algorithm maintains minSlack, s.t. for every vertex v not in
T, minSlack[v]=(val,u1), where val is the minimum slack
lu[u]+lv[v]-w[u][v] over u in S, and u1 is the vertex that
realizes this minimum.
Complexity is O(n^3), because there are n iterations in
maxWeightMatching, and each call to augment costs O(n^2). This is
because augment() makes at most n iterations itself, and each
updating of minSlack costs O(n).
