Here, we introduce a linear-time algorithm to compute near-minimum cuts. Our algorithm is based on cluster contraction using label propagation and Padberg and Rinaldi's contraction heuristics [SIAM Review, 1991]. We give both sequential and shared-memory parallel implementations of our algorithm. Extensive experiments on both real-world and generated instances show that our algorithm finds the optimal cut on nearly all instances significantly faster than other state-of-the-art exact algorithms, and our error rate is lower than that of other heuristic algorithms. In addition, our parallel algorithm shows good scalability."}],"page":"48-61","publication_identifier":{"eisbn":["978-1-61197-505-5"]}}
