PACE 2024 - Properties of the Exact Benchmark Set

The public benchmark set for the exact track has the following properties, which may be utilized by the submitted solvers (but doesn’t have to).

Number of Vertices

The minimum number of vertices is $562$, the maximum number is $32691$. The graphs have $4183$ vertices on average.

Number of Edges

The minimum number of edges is $445$, the maximum number is $32807$. The graphs have $4464$ edges on average.

Graph Classes

Most graphs (but not all) belong to one of the following families:

Crossing numbers

We tried to create instances where the crossing number is not too large compared to the number of vertices $n$.
