Multi-level direct K-way hypergraph partitioning with multiple constraints and fixed vertices

Abstract: K-way hypergraph partitioning has an ever-growing use in parallelization of scientific computing applications. We claim that hypergraph partitioning with multiple constraints and fixed vertices should be implemented using direct K-way refinement, instead of the widely adopted recursive bisection paradigm. Our arguments are based on the fact that recursive-bisection-based partitioning algorithms perform considerably worse when used in the multiple constraint and fixed vertex formulations. We discuss possible re… Show more

“…RB is the most commonly used method for obtaining a K -way partition of a hypergraph, although there are other methods based on direct K -way partitioning [3,27]. In the RB scheme, first a bipartition of the initial hypergraph is obtained, and then this bipartition is decoded to construct two subhypergraphs using the cut-net removal and cut-net splitting techniques [2] to capture the cut-net and connectivity cutsize metrics, respectively.…”

“…FM-based heuristics perform poorly on hypergraphs with high net degrees [3,27] and small vertex degrees [19]. To alleviate these problems, multilevel algorithms have been proposed [6,20] and applied to the HP problem, leading to successful HP tools such as PaToH [2], hMeTiS [26], Mondriaan [45], Zoltan [14], and ParKWay [43].…”

“…A recent variant of the above problem is the multi-constraint hypergraph partitioning [4,[17][18][19][20] in which each vertex has a vector of weights associated with it. The partitioning objective is the same as above, and the partitioning constraint is to satisfy a balance criterion associated with each weight.…”

“…The multilevel paradigm [21] has been successfully applied to hypergraph partitioning [2,17,19,22]. A multilevel hypergraph partitioning method consists of three phases: coarsening, initial partitioning and uncoarsening.…”

“…Although direct K-way hypergraph partitioning [4] is feasible, the Recursive Bipartitioning (RB) paradigm is widely used in K-way hypergraph partitioning and known to be amenable to produce good solution qualities. This paradigm is especially suitable for partitioning hypergraphs when K is not known in advance.…”
