This data set contains two zipfiles called SMTI_Instances.zip and HRT2S.zip. Each of these zipfiles each contain a folder called Instances, itself contain instances of either SMTI or HRT2S. The SMTI files are named SMTI_250_Y_Z_I_S.instance, where Y, Z, I, and S, are integers. Each of these instance has 250 agents per side (250 candidates, 250 positions). The Y is the length of the preference lists of each candidate, the Z is the tie density, the I indicates which copy of this instance (each set of parameters was used to generate 10 different instances), and the S gives the 'skew' of the instance. A skew value of 1 means all candidates and positions were randomly assigned preferences. A value of skew S > 1 means the candidates and positions roughly obey an overall ranking, with the most preferred candidate being S times more likely to be ranked higher than the least preferred canddiate. Note that the preferences are still distributed randomly, there is no guarantee that every candidate will rank the "most favourable" position at the top, it is just more likely that they will. The HRT files are named e.g. HRT_R4000_H400_P4000_L25_DD0.75_HD0.75_i23.instance In this filename: R4000 indicates that the instance contains 4000 residents H400 indicates that the instance contains 400 hospitals P4000 indicates that the instance contains 4000 positions L25 indicates that the doctors' preference lists have 25 entries DD0.75 indicates that the tie density of the doctors' preference lists is 0.75 HD0.75 indicates that the tie density of the hospitals' preference lists is 0.75 i23 indicates that the instance is the 23rd instance with this particular parameter set. Each file contains the following: 0 Number of agents on side A Number of agents on side B AgentID Preferences AgentID Preferences AgentID Preferences . . AgentID Capacity Preferences AgentID Capacity Preferences AgentID Capacity Preferences AgentID Capacity Preferences . . For the agents on Side A, we only list their ID and preferences. Preferences are listed in descending order, with brackets to indicate ties. For agents on Side B, the capacity of each agent is given before the list of preferences, but otherwise the same holds. Note that in SMTI, Capacity is always 1.
