Optimal Assignment of Conference Papers to Reviewers

In the course of helping to organize the 2006 edition of the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition. I developed an algorithm that was used to help automate the assignment of reviewers to papers based on a set of affinities indicated by the conference area chairs. It has been used subsequently for reviewer assignment for The European Conference on Computer Vision 2008. You can find a short paper detailing the theory behind this algorithm here. You can also download Matlab codes that implement the algorithm from the links below.
