Hello everyone. I've just made the first release of [ageneau/blossom "0.1.1"]. This library implements Edmonds's blossom algorithm for maximum weight matching in undirected graphs. The code is at https://github.com/ageneau/blossom. Feedback / comments welcome !

Omg, I’ve been close to attempting this a few times, amazing!

Is this Blossom or Blossom V? And remind me, does blossom support matching groups bigger than 2?

It works for non-bipartite weighted graphs. It's not blossom V (Blossom V refers to https://pub.ist.ac.at/~vnk/papers/blossom5.pdf right ? ). It's based on Galil's paper: http://www.cs.kent.edu/~dragan/GraphAn/p23-galil.pdf

Cool!

Very curious to hear more about what you’re using this for if you don’t mind sharing ☺️

I had plans to make a swiss pairing system for chess tournaments.
