Location


The power station would be located on the Ndugutu River, just outside Rwenzori National Park, in Bundibugyo District, in Uganda's Western Region, approximately 20 kilometres (12 mi), by road, southwest of the town of Bundibugyo, the nearest urban center and the location of the district headquarters.[3] This location is in close proximity of the 5.25 megawatts (7,040 hp) Sindila Hydroelectric Power Station, which is owned by the same developer.[2]



Overview


Ndugutu HEPS is a run-of-river mini-hydro power plant whose planned maximum installed capacity is 4.8 MW.[4] The project is owned by KMR East Africa Company[2] (also Ndugutu Power Company Uganda Limited),[1] the project developers. The construction of this power station was budgeted at US$15 million, with US$3.2 million in GetFit concessions.[4]



Timetable


The project received approval for GetFit support in June 2015. Financial close was reached in 2016. Construction was expected to start during 2017, with completion expected during the fourth quarter of 2018.[4]

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
