the table below. Those repositories contain the full documentation, parameter spaces, and experimental setups used in the respective publications and give full credit to the respective authors.\n\n\u003e **For maximum performance:** The bundled C++ libraries are compiled with default settings for broad compatibility. For peak performance and access to every tuning knob, use the **latest main branch of the original repositories** directly (linked in the table below). The python front end is meant for usability, not for performance measurements. \n\n---\n## Super Quick Start\n\n```bash\npython3 -m venv chszlab_env\nsource chszlab_env/bin/activate\npip install chszlablib\n```\n\nOr via [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) (macOS ARM64, Linux x86_64):\n\n```bash\nbrew tap CHSZLab/chszlablib\nbrew install chszlablib\n```\n\n\n## About\n\nThe [Algorithm Engineering Group Heidelberg](https://ae.ifi.uni-heidelberg.de/) at Heidelberg University develops high-performance C++ algorithms for a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems on graphs — graph partitioning, minimum and maximum cuts, community detection, independent sets, edge orientation, and more. These solvers represent the state of the art in their respective domains.\n\n**CHSZLabLib wraps some of these libraries into a single, easy-to-use Python interface.** `Graph` and `HyperGraph` objects, consistent method signatures, typed result objects, and zero-copy NumPy arrays — designed to be productive for end users and fully discoverable by AI agents (LLMs).\n\nFor full algorithmic control (custom parameter tuning, every possible knob), use the underlying C/C++ repositories directly. This library prioritizes convenience and a unified interface -- **not full speed**.\n\n### Group Members (Main Contributors)\n\n**Current:**\n- Christian Schulz (Group Leader)\n- Adil Chhabra (PhD Student)\n- Henrik Reinstädtler (PhD Student)\n- Henning Woydt (PhD Student)\n- Kenneth Langedal (PostDoc)\n- Ernestine Großmann (PostDoc, former PhD)\n\n**Student Research Assistants:**\n- Fabian Walliser\n- Shai Dorian Peretz\n- Markus Everling\n\n**Alumni:**\n- Alexander Noe (PhD)\n- Marcelo Fonseca Faraj (PhD)\n- Antonie Lea Wagner (Student Research Assistant)\n- Marlon Dittes (Student Research Assistant)\n- Jannick Borowitz (Student Research Assistant)\n- Dominik Schweisgut (Student Research Assistant)\n- Thomas Möller (Student Research Assistant)\n- Patrick Steil (Student Research Assistant)\n- Joseph Holten (Student Research Assistant)\n\n### Collaborators (Full List \u0026rarr; EOF)\n- S.

Runs the full test suite\n\n**Requirements:**\n\n| Dependency | Version |\n|:-----------|:--------|\n| Python | \u003e= 3.9 |\n| C++ compiler | GCC or Clang with C++17 support |\n| CMake | \u003e= 3.15 |\n| NumPy | \u003e= 1.20 |\n\n**Optional dependencies:**\n\n| Package | Purpose |\n|:--------|:--------|\n| `networkx` | `Graph.from_networkx()` / `to_networkx()` conversions |\n| `scipy` | `Graph.from_scipy_sparse()` / `to_scipy_sparse()` conversions |\n| `gurobipy` | Exact ILP solver for `IndependenceProblems.hypermis(method=\"exact\")` — requires a [Gurobi license](https://www.gurobi.com/downloads/) |\n| OpenMP | Optional (enables parallelism in VieClus, CHILS, HeiStream) |\n\n---\n\n## Graph Construction\n\nAll algorithms operate on the `Graph` class, which stores data in Compressed Sparse Row (CSR) format. Three construction methods are available:\n\n### Builder API (edge-by-edge)\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import Graph\n\ng = Graph(num_nodes=5)\ng.add_edge(0, 1, weight=3)\ng.add_edge(1, 2)\ng.add_edge(2, 3, weight=7)\ng.add_edge(3, 4)\ng.set_node_weight(0, 10)\ng.finalize()  # converts to CSR; auto-called on first property access\n\nprint(g.num_nodes)     # 5\nprint(g.num_edges)     # 4\nprint(g.xadj)          # CSR row pointers\nprint(g.adjncy)        # CSR column indices\nprint(g.edge_weights)  # per-entry edge weights\nprint(g.node_weights)  # per-node weights\n```\n\n### Direct CSR construction\n\nFor large graphs or interoperability with SciPy/NetworkX:\n\n```python\nimport numpy as np\nfrom chszlablib import Graph\n\n# 4-node cycle: 0-1-2-3-0\ng = Graph.from_csr(\n    xadj    = np.array([0, 2, 4, 6, 8]),\n    adjncy  = np.array([1, 3, 0, 2, 1, 3, 0, 2]),\n    edge_weights = np.array([1, 2, 1, 3, 3, 5, 2, 5]),  # optional\n)\n```\n\n### From METIS file\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import Graph, read_metis\n\n# Class method\ng = Graph.from_metis(\"mesh.graph\")\n\n# Module function (equivalent)\ng = read_metis(\"mesh.graph\")\n\n# Write back\ng.to_metis(\"output.graph\")\n```\n\n### From edge list\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import Graph\n\ng = Graph.from_edge_list([(0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3)])               # unweighted\ng = Graph.from_edge_list([(0, 1, 5), (1, 2, 3)], num_nodes=4)    # weighted, explicit node count\n```\n\n### From NetworkX / SciPy (optional dependencies)\n\n```python\nimport networkx as nx\nfrom chszlablib import Graph\n\n# NetworkX → CHSZLabLib\ng = Graph.from_networkx(nx.karate_club_graph())\n\n# CHSZLabLib → NetworkX\nG_nx = g.to_networkx()\n\n# SciPy CSR ↔ CHSZLabLib\nimport scipy.sparse as sp\ng = Graph.from_scipy_sparse(csr_matrix)\nA = g.to_scipy_sparse()\n\n# Graph → HyperGraph (each edge becomes a size-2 hyperedge)\nhg = g.to_hypergraph()\n```\n\n---\n\n## HyperGraph Construction\n\nFor algorithms that operate on hypergraphs (edges connecting two or more vertices), use the `HyperGraph` class. It stores data in **dual CSR** format — both vertex-to-edge and edge-to-vertex adjacency arrays.\n\n### Builder API (edge-by-edge)\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import HyperGraph\n\nhg = HyperGraph(num_nodes=5, num_edges=2)\nhg.set_edge(0, [0, 1, 2])       # hyperedge 0 contains vertices {0, 1, 2}\nhg.set_edge(1, [2, 3, 4])       # hyperedge 1 contains vertices {2, 3, 4}\nhg.set_node_weight(0, 10)\nhg.set_edge_weight(1, 5)\nhg.finalize()  # converts to dual CSR; auto-called on first property access\n\nprint(hg.num_nodes)       # 5\nprint(hg.num_edges)       # 2\nprint(hg.eptr, hg.everts) # edge-to-vertex CSR\nprint(hg.vptr, hg.vedges) # vertex-to-edge CSR\n```\n\n### From edge list\n\n```python\nhg = HyperGraph.from_edge_list(\n    [[0, 1, 2], [2, 3, 4], [4, 5]],\n    node_weights=np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]),  # optional\n)\n```\n\n### From a graph\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import Graph, HyperGraph\n\ng = Graph.from_edge_list([(0, 1, 5), (1, 2, 3)])\nhg = HyperGraph.from_graph(g)  # each edge → size-2 hyperedge, weights preserved\n```\n\n### From hMETIS file\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import HyperGraph, read_hmetis\n\nhg = HyperGraph.from_hmetis(\"mesh.hgr\")       # class method\nhg = read_hmetis(\"mesh.hgr\")                   # module function (equivalent)\nhg.to_hmetis(\"output.hgr\")                     # write back\n```\n\n### Clique expansion (HyperGraph → Graph)\n\nConvert a hypergraph to a regular graph by replacing each hyperedge with a clique over its vertices:\n\n```python\ng = hg.to_graph()  # returns a Graph; can be used with any graph algorithm\n```\n\n---\n\n## API Reference\n\nThe library organizes algorithms into four namespace classes. Each class is a pure namespace (no instantiation) with static methods. Methods take a `Graph` (or `HyperGraph` where noted) and return a typed dataclass with NumPy arrays.\n\n\n---\n\n## Decomposition\n\nGraph decomposition: partitioning, clustering, cuts, and process mapping.\n\n**Partitioning**\n\n| Method | Problem | Library |\n|:-------|:--------|:--------|\n| [`partition`](#api-partition) | Balanced graph partitioning | KaHIP |\n| [`evolutionary_partition`](#api-evolutionary-partition) | Balanced graph partitioning (evolutionary) | KaHIP |\n| [`node_separator`](#api-node-separator) | Balanced node separator | KaHIP |\n| [`node_ordering`](#api-node-ordering) | Nested dissection ordering | KaHIP |\n| [`stream_partition`](#api-stream-partition) | Streaming graph partitioning | HeiStream |\n| [`HeiStreamPartitioner`](#api-heistreampartitioner) | Streaming graph partitioning (node-by-node) | HeiStream |\n| [`stream_hypergraph_partition`](#api-stream-hypergraph-partition) | Streaming hypergraph partitioning | FREIGHT |\n| [`FreightPartitioner`](#api-freightpartitioner) | Streaming hypergraph partitioning (node-by-node) | FREIGHT |\n| [`process_map`](#api-process-map) | Hierarchical process mapping | SharedMap |\n\n**Clustering**\n\n| Method | Problem | Library |\n|:-------|:--------|:--------|\n| [`cluster`](#api-cluster) | Community detection (modularity) | VieClus |\n| [`correlation_clustering`](#api-correlation-clustering) | Correlation clustering | SCC |\n| [`evolutionary_correlation_clustering`](#api-evolutionary-correlation-clustering) | Correlation clustering (evolutionary) | SCC |\n| [`motif_cluster`](#api-motif-cluster) | Local motif clustering | HeidelbergMotifClustering |\n| [`stream_cluster`](#api-stream-cluster) | Streaming graph clustering | CluStRE |\n| [`CluStReClusterer`](#api-clustreclusterer) | Streaming graph clustering (node-by-node) | CluStRE |\n\n**Cuts**\n\n| Method | Problem | Library |\n|:-------|:--------|:--------|\n| [`mincut`](#api-mincut) | Global minimum cut | VieCut |\n| [`maxcut`](#api-maxcut) | Maximum cut | fpt-max-cut |\n| [`hypergraph_mincut`](#api-hypergraph-mincut) | Exact hypergraph minimum cut | HeiCut |\n\n\u003ca id=\"api-partition\"\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\n\n#### `Decomposition.partition(g, ...)` — Balanced Graph Partitioning (KaHIP)\n\n**Problem.** Given an undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ with node weights $c : V \\to \\mathbb{R}_{\\geq 0}$ and edge weights $\\omega : E \\to \\mathbb{R}_{\\geq 0}$, find a partition of $V$ into $k$ disjoint blocks $V_1, \\dotsc, V_k$ that minimizes the **edge cut**\n\n$$\\text{cut}(\\mathcal{P}) = \\sum_{\\substack{\\lbrace u,v \\rbrace \\in E \\\\ \\pi(u) \\neq \\pi(v)}} \\omega(\\lbrace u,v \\rbrace),$$\n\nwhere $\\pi(v)$ denotes the block of node $v$, subject to the **balance constraint**\n\n$$c(V_i) \\leq (1 + \\varepsilon) \\left\\lceil \\frac{c(V)}{k} \\right\\rceil \\quad \\text{for all } i = 1, \\dotsc, k,$$\n\nwhere $\\varepsilon \\geq 0$ is the allowed imbalance.

Binary I/O is ~10--50x faster than text-based METIS for large graphs.\n\n```python\n# Graph binary I/O\ng.save_binary(\"graph.npz\")\ng = Graph.load_binary(\"graph.npz\")\n\n# HyperGraph binary I/O\nhg.save_binary(\"hypergraph.npz\")\nhg = HyperGraph.load_binary(\"hypergraph.npz\")\n```\n\nThe binary format includes version and type metadata. Loading a hypergraph file as a graph (or vice versa) raises `ValueError`.\n\n---\n\n## Running Tests\n\n```bash\nsource .venv/bin/activate\npytest tests/ -v\n```\n\n---\n\n## Project

Graph.from_networkx(nx_graph)\ng.to_networkx()  # convert back\n\n# From SciPy CSR (optional dependency)\ng = Graph.from_scipy_sparse(csr_matrix)\ng.to_scipy_sparse()  # convert back\n\n# From METIS file\ng = Graph.from_metis(\"graph.metis\")\n\n# Binary save/load (fast, for repeated use)\ng.save_binary(\"graph.npz\")\ng = Graph.load_binary(\"graph.npz\")\n\n# Convert to hypergraph (each edge becomes a size-2 hyperedge)\nhg = g.to_hypergraph()\n```\n\n### HyperGraph Construction Shortcuts\n\n```python\nfrom chszlablib import HyperGraph\n\n# From edge list (each edge is a list of vertices)\nhg = HyperGraph.from_edge_list([[0, 1, 2], [2, 3, 4]])\n\n# From a Graph (each edge → size-2 hyperedge, weights preserved)\nhg = HyperGraph.from_graph(g)\n\n# From hMETIS file\nhg = HyperGraph.from_hmetis(\"hypergraph.hgr\")\n\n# Binary save/load (fast, for repeated use)\nhg.save_binary(\"hypergraph.npz\")\nhg = HyperGraph.load_binary(\"hypergraph.npz\")\n\n# Convert to regular graph (clique expansion)\ng = hg.to_graph()\n```\n\n### Common Pitfalls\n\n- **Call `g.finalize()` before passing to algorithms** (or let property access auto-finalize).\n- **Mode strings are case-sensitive:** use `\"eco\"`, not `\"Eco\"` or `\"ECO\"`.\n- **Self-loops and duplicate edges raise `InvalidGraphError`.** Empty hyperedges raise `InvalidHyperGraphError`.\n- **NetworkX / SciPy / gurobipy are optional** — import errors give a helpful message.\n- **`IndependenceProblems.hypermis()` takes a `HyperGraph`, not a `Graph`.**\n- **`Decomposition.hypergraph_mincut()` takes a `HyperGraph`, not a `Graph`.**\n- **`Decomposition.stream_hypergraph_partition()` takes a `HyperGraph`, not a `Graph`.** Use `FreightPartitioner` for true node-by-node streaming.\n- **`Decomposition.stream_cluster()` ignores edge weights** — CluStRE operates on unweighted graphs.\n- **`IndependenceProblems.bmatching()` takes a `HyperGraph`, not a `Graph`.** Set capacities *before* finalization.\n- **`StreamingBMatcher` capacity defaults to 1.** Pass `capacities=` array to the constructor for custom capacities.\n- **`PartitionResult.balance` is only set by `evolutionary_partition`.**\n- **Catch `CHSZLabLibError` to handle all library errors, or use specific subclasses (`InvalidModeError`, `InvalidGraphError`, `GraphNotFinalizedError`).**\n\n---\n---\n\n## Citations\n\nIf you use CHSZLabLib in your research, please cite the relevant papers for each algorithm you use.\n\n### KaHIP (Partitioning, Node
