When a program attempts to search a data structure for a particular item, it uses an algorithm. An algorithm is a process, defined in code, for carrying out a specific task.

Specialization: Data Science Foundations: Data Structures and Algorithms Instructor: Sriram Sankaranarayanan, Assistant Professor Prior knowledge needed: We highly recommended successfully completing ...

This repository provides implementations and theoretical explanations of fundamental data structures and algorithms in C++. It serves as a comprehensive resource for learners and developers, featuring ...

Using a sequence of steps to solve a problem. Scientific applications, forecasting, decision making, quantum computing and AI use algorithms routinely. Computer programming is used to implement ...

We present a dynamic programming-based heuristic algorithm for selecting the next task of in-process cars in automotive assembly plants. As car production demand diversifies, manufacturing processes ...

We present two first-order primal-dual algorithms for solving saddle point formulations of linear programs, namely FWLP (Frank-Wolfe Linear Programming) and FWLP-P. The former iteratively applies the ...

This study considers a problem of finding an optimal approximation of conditional information measures, like the conditional entropy, of a Bernoulli random variable (RV) given an auxiliary RV. We ...

Definition: A programming technique where a function calls itself to solve a problem by breaking it down into smaller subproblems. Examples: Factorial calculation, Fibonacci sequence, Tower of Hanoi.
