  2. Pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_matching

    will match elements such as A[1], A[2], or more generally A[x] where x is any entity. In this case, A is the concrete element, while _ denotes the piece of tree that can be varied. A symbol prepended to _ binds the match to that variable name while a symbol appended to _ restricts the matches to nodes of that

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  4. Gestalt pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestalt_Pattern_Matching

    Gestalt pattern matching, [1] also Ratcliff/Obershelp pattern recognition, [2] is a string-matching algorithm for determining the similarity of two strings. It was developed in 1983 by John W. Ratcliff and John A. Obershelp and published in the Dr. Dobb's Journal in July 1988.

    The matching with contracts problem is a generalization of matching problem, in which participants can be matched with different terms of contracts. [17] An important special case of contracts is matching with flexible wages.

  6. Okapi BM25 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okapi_BM25

    In information retrieval, Okapi BM25 (BM is an abbreviation of best matching) is a ranking function used by search engines to estimate the relevance of documents to a given search query. It is based on the probabilistic retrieval framework developed in the 1970s and 1980s by Stephen E. Robertson , Karen Spärck Jones , and others.

  7. Regular expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression

    Blue highlights show the match results of the regular expression pattern: /r[aeiou]+/ g (lower case r followed by one or more lower-case vowels). A regular expression (shortened as regex or regexp ), [ 1 ] sometimes referred to as rational expression , [ 2 ] [ 3 ] is a sequence of characters that specifies a match pattern in text .

  8. Assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_problem

    The most common case is the case in which the graph admits a one-sided-perfect matching (i.e., a matching of size r), and s=r. Unbalanced assignment can be reduced to a balanced assignment. The naive reduction is to add n − r {\displaystyle n-r} new vertices to the smaller part and connect them to the larger part using edges of cost 0.

  9. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python is known as a glue language, [76] able to work very well with many other languages with ease of access. Python uses dynamic typing and a combination of reference counting and a cycle-detecting garbage collector for memory management. [77] It uses dynamic name resolution (late binding), which binds method and variable names during program ...
