Assignment Problem_ Hungarian method

An assignment problem is a type of optimization problem in which the objective is to find the best assignment of a set of resources to a set of tasks, typically with the goal of minimizing the total cost or maximizing the total profit. Each resource must be assigned to exactly one task, and each task must be assigned exactly one resource. Assignment problems find applications in various fields such as logistics, operations management, computer science, and economics. They can be solved using various techniques including linear programming, Hungarian algorithm, and network flow algorithms. Efficient solutions to assignment problems help in optimizing resource allocation and improving overall efficiency in various real-world scenarios.
