  2. MinHash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MinHash

    The MinHash scheme may be seen as an instance of locality-sensitive hashing, a collection of techniques for using hash functions to map large sets of objects down to smaller hash values in such a way that, when two objects have a small distance from each other, their hash values are likely to be the same. In this instance, the signature of a ...

  3. Bloom filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter

    First all the elements that had their hash value sent back are sent to the PE that their hash is responsible for. Any element and its duplicate is now guaranteed to be on the same PE. In the second step each PE uses a sequential algorithm for duplicate detection on the receiving elements, which are only a fraction of the amount of starting ...

  5. Median cut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_cut

    Find out which color channel (red, green, or blue) among the pixels in the bucket has the greatest range, then sort the pixels according to that channel's values. For example, if the blue channel has the greatest range, then a pixel with an RGB value of (32, 8, 16) is less than a pixel with an RGB value of (1, 2, 24) , because 16 < 24 .

  6. Cycle detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_detection

    In computer science, cycle detection or cycle finding is the algorithmic problem of finding a cycle in a sequence of iterated function values. For any function f that maps a finite set S to itself, and any initial value x 0 in S , the sequence of iterated function values

  7. Selection sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_sort

    Like counting sort, this is an efficient variant if there are many duplicate values: selection sort does one pass through the remaining items for each item moved, while Bingo sort does one pass for each value. After an initial pass to find the greatest value, subsequent passes move every item with that value to its final location while finding ...

  8. Longest repeated substring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_repeated_substring...

    In computer science, the longest repeated substring problem is the problem of finding the longest substring of a string that occurs at least twice. This problem can be solved in linear time and space Θ ( n ) {\displaystyle \Theta (n)} by building a suffix tree for the string (with a special end-of-string symbol like '$' appended), and finding ...

  9. Quickselect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quickselect

    In computer science, quickselect is a selection algorithm to find the kth smallest element in an unordered list, also known as the kth order statistic.Like the related quicksort sorting algorithm, it was developed by Tony Hoare, and thus is also known as Hoare's selection algorithm. [1]
