Minimum Many-to-Many Matchings for Computing the Distance Between Two Sequences

Abstract: Motivated by a problem in music theory of measuring the distance between chords and scales we consider algorithms for obtaining a minimum-weight many-to-many matching between two sets of points on the real line. Given sets A and B, we want to find the best rigid translation of B and a many-to-many matching that minimizes the sum of the squares of the distances between matched points. We provide a discrete algorithm that solves this continuous optimization problem, and discuss other related matters.

“…It is also planned to compare the measure tested here with other measures of geometric graph similarity. In particular, computing the many-to-many optimal matching for certain one-dimensional strings is computationally more efficient that the Hungarian algorithm for twodimensional geometric graphs (Eiter and Mannila, 1997), (Colannino et al, 2007), (Mohamad et al, 2014). Hence it is worth determining the viability of converting CPs to one-dimensional strings that can be tackled with one-dimensional many-to-many techniques.…”
