Reviewer assignment algorithms and systems have emerged as critical tools in modern academic publishing and research evaluation, ensuring that submitted manuscripts are matched with expert ...

The Hungarian method gives an efficient algorithm for finding the minimal cost assignment. However, in some cases it may be useful to determine the second minimal assignment (i.e., the best assignment ...

We extend the (1 — 1/e)-approximation algorithm to a constant-factor approximation algorithms for a nonseparable assignment problem with applications in maximizing revenue for budget-constrained ...

We simulated savings from replacing random assignment with an “intelligent assignment” algorithm that would assign beneficiaries to the least expensive plan in 2010 based on their drug usage ...

But there is some evidence that algorithm-based school assignment doesn’t help more disadvantaged children actually gain access to better schools, and some observers worry that such systems ...
