Abstract

Given a weight on each edge and a penalty on each vertex of a bipartite graph, the bipartite weighted matching with penalty problem is to find a matching that minimises the sum of the weights of the matched edges and the penalties of the unmatched vertices. It is shown that this problem can be reduced easily to the standard bipartite weighted matching problem. The method easily generalises to graphs that are not necessarily bipartite.
