The Hungarian Method is a mathematical algorithm used to solve the assignment problem, which

involves assigning a set of workers to a set of tasks in the most efficient way possible. This method
was developed by Hungarian mathematician Dénes Kőnig in the 1930s and has since been widely
used in various fields such as economics, engineering, and computer science.

The assignment problem can be represented as a matrix, with the rows representing the workers and
the columns representing the tasks. Each cell in the matrix represents the cost or benefit of assigning
a particular worker to a specific task. The goal of the Hungarian Method is to find the assignment
that minimizes the total cost or maximizes the total benefit.

The Hungarian Method follows a step-by-step process to find the optimal assignment. It starts by
finding the smallest element in each row and subtracting it from all other elements in that row. Then,
it does the same for each column, subtracting the smallest element from all other elements in that
column. This process is known asrow and column reduction.

Next, the method identifies the smallest number of lines needed to cover all zeros in the matrix.
These lines can be horizontal or vertical and are known ascovering lines. The goal is to have the
same number of lines as there are rows or columns in the matrix.

After identifying the covering lines, the method checks for a complete assignment, where each
worker is assigned to a task without any overlapping assignments. If a complete assignment is found,
it is the optimal solution. If not, the method uses a process called augmentation to modify the matrix
and create more zeros, making it easier to find a complete assignment.

The Hungarian Method is a powerful tool for solving the assignment problem and has been proven to
find the optimal solution in a finite number of steps. It is also versatile and can be applied to various
types of assignment problems, making it a valuable tool for businesses and organizations.

modify the matrix with the help of step II and find the required assignment. This procedure will be
more clear by the following examples. Example A: Four persons A,B,C and D are to be assigned four
jobs I, II, III and IV. The cost matrix is given as under, find the proper assignment. Man A B C D

in rows, it is usually easy to make zero assignments. While examining rows successively, it is
observed that row 4 has two zeros in both cells (4,1) and (4,4). Now, arbitrarily make an
experiemental assignment to one of these two cells, say (4,1) and cross other zeros in row 4 and

PROBLEMS 62.1 INTRODUCTION Imagine, if in a printing press there is one machine and one
operator is there to operate. How would you employ the worker? Your immediate answer will be,
the available operator will operate the machine. Again suppose there are two machines in the press
and two operators are engaged at different rates to operate them. Which operator should operate
which machine for maximising profit? Similarly, if there are n machines available and n persons are
engaged at different rates to operate them. Which operator should be assigned to which machine to
ensure maximum efficiency? While answering the above questions we have to think about the
interest of the press, so we have to find such an assignment by which the press gets maximum profit
on minimum investment. Such problems are known as "assignment problems". In this lesson we will
study such problems. 62.2 OBJECTIVES After completion of this lesson you will be able to:
formulate the assignment problem know Hungarian method to find proper assignment employ
Hungarian method to find proper assignment 4. 100 :: Mathematics Now there are two possibilities:
(a) Either all the zeros are assigned or crossed out, i.e., we get the maximal assignment. or (b) At
least two zeros are remained by assignment or by crossing out in each row or column. In this
situation we try to exclude some of the zeros by trial and error method. This completes the second
step. After this step we can get two situations. (i) Total assigned zero’s = n The assignment is
optimal. (ii) Total assigned zero’s< n Use step III and onwards. Step III: Draw of minimum lines to
cover zero’s In order to cover all the zero’s at least once you may adopt the following procedure. (i)
Marks (√) to all rows in which the assignment has not been done. (ii) See the position of zero in
marked (√) row and then mark (√) to the corresponding column. (iii) See the marked (√) column and
find the position of a s s i g n e d z e r o ’ s a n d t h e n m a r k ( √) t o t h e corresponding rows
which are not marked till now. (iv) Repeat the procedure (ii) and (iii) till the completion of marking.
(v) Draw the lines through unmarked rows and marked columns. Note: If the above method does not
work then make an arbitrary assignment and then follow step IV. Step IV: Select the smallest element
from the uncovered elements. (i) Subtract this smallest element from all those elements which are
not covered. (ii) Add this smallest element to all those elements which are at the intersection of two
lines. Step V: Thus we have increased the number of zero’s. Now, Is the category for this document

and n persons are available with different skills. If the cost of doing jth work by ith person is c ij.
Then the cost matrix is given in the table 1 below: Jobs 1 2 3 ........ j ........ n Table Persons 1 1 c 11 c

the problem is which work is to be assigned to whom so that the cost of completion of work will be
minimum. Mathematically, we can express the problem as follows: n n To minimize z (cost) = Σ Σ c ij
x ij; [ i=1,2,...n; j=1,2,...n] ...(1) i=1 j=1 where x ij = { 1; if ith person is assigned jth work 0; if ith
person is not assigned the jth work with the restrictions n (i) Σ xij =1; j=1,2,...n., i.e., ith person will
do only one work. i=1 n (ii) Σ xij=1; i=1,2,...n.,i.e., jth work will be done only by one person. j=1 The

ALGORITHM (The Hungarian Method) In order to find the proper assignment it is essential for us
to know the Hungarian method. This method is dependent upon two vital theorems, stated as below.
Theorem 1: If a constant is added (or subtracted) to every element of any row (or column) of the
cost matrix [cij] in an assingment problem then an assingment which minimises the total cost for the
new matrix will also minimize the total cost matrix. Theorem 2: If all cij ≥ 0 and there exists a
solution xij = X ij such that ∑ c ij xij = 0. i then this solution is an optimal solution, i.e., minimizes z.
The computational proecdure is given as under: Step I (A) Row reduction: Subtract the minimum
entry of each row from all the entires of the respective row in the cost matrix. ∑ (B) Column
reduction: j After completion of row reduction, subtract the minimum entry of each column from all
the entires of the respective column. Step II Zero assignment: (A) Starting with first row of the
matrix received in first step, examine the rows one by one until a row containing exactly one zero is
found. Then an experimental assignment indicated by ‘ ’ is marked to that zero. Now cross all the
zeros in the column in which the assignment is made. This procedure should be adopted for each row
assignment. (B) When the set of rows has been completely examined, an identical procedure is
applied successively to columns. Starting with column 1, examine all columns until a column
containing exactly one zero is found. Then make an experimental assignment in that position and
cross other zeros in the row in which the assignment was made. Continue these successive operations
on rows and columns until all zero’s have either been assigned or corssed-out.

(4,1) and cross other zeros in row 4 and column 1.

PROBLEMS 62.1 INTRODUCTION Imagine, if in a printing press there is one machine and one
operator is there to operate. How would you employ the worker? Your immediate answer will be,
the available operator will operate the machine. Again suppose there are two machines in the press
and two operators are engaged at different rates to operate them. Which operator should operate
which machine for maximising profit? Similarly, if there are n machines available and n persons are
engaged at different rates to operate them. Which operator should be assigned to which machine to
ensure maximum efficiency? While answering the above questions we have to think about the
interest of the press, so we have to find such an assignment by which the press gets maximum profit
on minimum investment. Such problems are known as "assignment problems". In this lesson we will
study such problems. 62.2 OBJECTIVES After completion of this lesson you will be able to:

Assignment Problems :: 99 62.4 ASSIGNMENT ALGORITHM (The Hungarian Method) In order
to find the proper assignment it is essential for us to know the Hungarian method. This method is
dependent upon two vital theorems, stated as below. Theorem 1: If a constant is added (or
subtracted) to every element of any row (or column) of the cost matrix [cij] in an assingment
problem then an assingment which minimises the total cost for the new matrix will also minimize the
total cost matrix. Theorem 2: If all cij ≥ 0 and there exists a solution xij = X ij such that ∑ c ij xij = 0.
i then this solution is an optimal solution, i.e., minimizes z. The computational proecdure is given as
under: Step I (A) Row reduction: Subtract the minimum entry of each row from all the entires of the
respective row in the cost matrix. ∑ (B) Column reduction: j After completion of row reduction,
subtract the minimum entry of each column from all the entires of the respective column. Step II
Zero assignment: (A) Starting with first row of the matrix received in first step, examine the rows
one by one until a row containing exactly one zero is found. Then an experimental assignment
indicated by ‘ ’ is marked to that zero. Now cross all the zeros in the column in which the
assignment is made. This procedure should be adopted for each row assignment. (B) When the set of
rows has been completely examined, an identical procedure is applied successively to columns.
Starting with column 1, examine all columns until a column containing exactly one zero is found.
Then make an experimental assignment in that position and cross other zeros in the row in which the
assignment was made. Continue these successive operations on rows and columns until all zero’s
have either been assigned or corssed-out.
