The iBP algorithm for the discretizable molecular distance geometry problem with interval data

The Distance Geometry Problem in three dimensions consists in finding an embedding in R^3 of a given nonnegatively weighted simple undirected graph such that edge weights are equal to the corresponding Euclidean distances in the embedding. This is a continuous search problem that can be discretized under some assumptions on the minimum degree of the vertices. In this paper we discuss the case where some of the edge weights are subject to uncertainty within a given nonnegative interval. We show that a discretization is still possible and propose the iBP algorithm to solve the problem. The approach is validated by some computational experiments on a set of artificially generated instances.
