ABSTRACT
In this paper, we propose to use linear programming methods or a more specialized method, namely, the Hungarian method, for speeding up the exact calculation of an edit distance for marked point processes [Y. Hirata and K. Aihara, Chaos 25, 123117 (2015)]. The key observation is that the problem of calculating the edit distance reduces to a matching problem on a bipartite graph. Our preliminary numerical results show that the proposed implementations are faster than the conventional ones by a factor of 10–1000.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
We appreciate Dr. Koji Iwayama for providing his codes for calculating the edit distance based on the minimum cost perfect matching via the Dijkstra method. The dataset of earthquakes was provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency.
