Dirk Maas







Gemeenlandshuis Zwanenburg, 1702


Dirk Maas (September 12, 1659, Haarlem – December 25, 1717, Haarlem), was a Dutch Golden Age landscape painter.



Biography


According to Houbraken he was first a pupil of Hendrick Mommers, a Haarlem painter of vegetable market scenes, and then took lessons from Nicolaes Berchem, who he probably met through Mommers.[1] Maas became a follower of Berchem's Italianate landscape painting.[1] Eventually he took up with Jan van Huchtenburg, whereupon he devoted himself to painting horses.[1]


According to the RKD he was first became a member of the Haarlem Guild of Saint Luke in 1678, and in 1690 he accompanied William III of England's army, where he painted the Battle of the Boyne first-hand.[2] He was a pupil of Mommers, Berchem, and Huchtenburg who made prints, Italianate landscapes, and staffage for other painters.[2] In 1697 he became a member of the Confrerie Pictura, though he seems to have remained active in Haarlem also.[2]

Dulmage-Mendelsohn matrix decomposition in Python

Image
0 Matlab has a function called dmperm that computes the so-called Dulmage–Mendelsohn decomposition of a n x n matrix. From wikipedia, the Dulmage–Mendelsohn is a partition of the vertices of a bipartite graph into subsets, with the property that two adjacent vertices belong to the same subset if and only if they are paired with each other in a perfect matching of the graph. Looking both on scipy and numpy, I could not find this function, nor some similar version. Is it possible to implement it using basic linear algebra operations? Any idea if this is implemented in some Python package? python matlab linear-algebra graph-theory matrix-decomposition share | improve this question
