Abstract

We present a more powerful heuristic algorithm for the NP-complete problem of finding a minimum size subset of edges in an unbalanced signed graph G whose ‘+’/‘−’ labels can be flipped to balance G. Our algorithm finds a minimal flipping edge-set, starting with a given spanning tree T of G, by considering both the edges not in T and those in T because flipping a tree-edge can sometimes balance multiple fundamental unbalanced cycles at the same time. This can give a much smaller minimal flipping edge-set than the current algorithm where only the edges not in T are considered for flipping.
