A Novel Edge Cover based Graph Coloring Algorithm

Abstract: Abstract-Graph Colouring Problem is a well-known NPHard problem. In Graph Colouring Problem (GCP) all vertices of any graph must be coloured in such a way that no two adjacent vertices are coloured with the same colour. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to solve the GCP. Proposed algorithm is based on finding vertex sets using edge cover method. In this paper implementation prospective of the algorithm is also discussed. Implemented algorithm is tested on various graph instances of DIMACS standards da… Show more

“…Although the hardware configuration used for experimentation in MOCA is unknown and therefore the execution mentioned in the research article is used for comparison. The comparison result with a technique based on edge cover-based graph colouring [34] and phase dynamics coupled oscillatory networks [35] finds more promising in terms of optimal colouring values for the tested graphs. The comparison results are shown in Table 9.…”

“…The comparison results are shown in Table 9. The comparison results are shown in Table 9 with edge cover-based graph colouring technique our greedy technique based approach is found better and produces optimal colouring values or near to optimal colouring for 11 graphs mentioned in bold entries in 3 rd column [34] in the table. Similarly on comparing with another technique reported in the literature in which researchers used oscillatory circuits for encoding the colouring problem for A Greedy Technique Based Improved Approach to Solve Graph Colouring Problem getting the solution our technique finds more promising and achieved the optimal colouring values for the compared graphs and other fails to achieve that.…”

“…They achieve that by performing incremental color propagation as the graph changes. An attempt to reduce the time needed to color a graph is conducted in [9] where authors identify edge cover graphs and independent graphs within the graph to be colored. The graph coloring attempts for solving the scheduling problem only generate good enough solutions but they fail in finding near optimal solutions.…”
