Summary :

We improve the algorithm to obtain the min-cut graph of a hyper-graph and show an application to the sub-network extraction problem. The min-cut graph is a directed acyclic graph whose directed cuts correspond one-to-one to the min-cuts of the hyper-graph. While the known approach trades the exactness of the min-cut graph for some speed improvement, our proposed algorithm gives an exact one without substantial computation overhead. By using the exact min-cut graph, an exhaustive algorithm finds an optimal sub-circuit that is extracted by a min-cut from the circuit. By experiments with the industrial data, the proposing method showed a performance enough for practical use.
