Tight Paths and Tight Pairs in Weighted Directed Graphs

Abstract

We state the graph-theoretic computational problem of finding tight paths in a directed, edge-weighted graph, as well as its simplification of finding tight pairs. These problems are motivated by the need of algorithms that find so-called basic antecedents in closure spaces, in one specific approach to data analysis. We discuss and compare several algorithms to approach these problems.
