scipy.sparse.csgraph.reverse_cuthill_mckee¶

scipy.sparse.csgraph.reverse_cuthill_mckee(graph, symmetric_mode=False)¶

Returns the permutation array that orders a sparse CSR or CSC matrix in Reverse-Cuthill McKee ordering.

It is assumed by default, symmetric_mode=False, that the input matrix is not symmetric and works on the matrix A+A.T. If you are guaranteed that the matrix is symmetric in structure (values of matrix elements do not matter) then set symmetric_mode=True.

Parameters

graphsparse matrix: Input sparse in CSC or CSR sparse matrix format.
symmetric_modebool, optional: Is input matrix guaranteed to be symmetric.

Returns

permndarray: Array of permuted row and column indices.

Notes

New in version 0.15.0.

>>> graph = [
... [0, 1 , 2, 0],
... [0, 0, 0, 1],
... [2, 0, 0, 3],
... [0, 0, 0, 0]
... ]
>>> graph = csr_matrix(graph)
>>> print(graph)
  (0, 1)    1
  (0, 2)    2
  (1, 3)    1
  (2, 0)    2
  (2, 3)    3
