  2. Greedy algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm

    The matching pursuit is an example of a greedy algorithm applied on signal approximation. A greedy algorithm finds the optimal solution to Malfatti's problem of finding three disjoint circles within a given triangle that maximize the total area of the circles; it is conjectured that the same greedy algorithm is optimal for any number of circles.

  3. Longest-processing-time-first scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest-processing-time...

    The max-sum in the greedy partition is more than 4 (since the total sum in both partitions is the same, and it is at least 4m). If sum(P i)≥3 for some greedy bin P i, then P i is not dominated by any optimal bin Q j. Proof: if P i is dominated by Q j, then we can construct a smaller counterexample by decreasing m to m-1 and removing the items ...

  4. Reverse-delete algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse-delete_algorithm

    This algorithm is a greedy algorithm, choosing the best choice given any situation. It is the reverse of Kruskal's algorithm, which is another greedy algorithm to find a minimum spanning tree. Kruskal’s algorithm starts with an empty graph and adds edges while the Reverse-Delete algorithm starts with the original graph and deletes edges from it.

  5. Kruskal's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal's_algorithm

    Kruskal's algorithm [1] finds a minimum spanning forest of an undirected edge-weighted graph.If the graph is connected, it finds a minimum spanning tree.It is a greedy algorithm that in each step adds to the forest the lowest-weight edge that will not form a cycle. [2]

  6. Greedy coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_coloring

    The right example generalises to 2-colorable graphs with n vertices, where the greedy algorithm expends n/2 colors. In the study of graph coloring problems in mathematics and computer science , a greedy coloring or sequential coloring [ 1 ] is a coloring of the vertices of a graph formed by a greedy algorithm that considers the vertices of the ...

  7. Decision tree learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_tree_learning

    This process of top-down induction of decision trees (TDIDT) [5] is an example of a greedy algorithm, and it is by far the most common strategy for learning decision trees from data. [ 6 ] In data mining , decision trees can be described also as the combination of mathematical and computational techniques to aid the description, categorization ...

    She coined the term “greedy jobs” to describe high-paying, high-pressure roles in fields like finance, management, law, and academia that demand workers be available at unusual times outside ...

  9. NP-completeness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP-completeness

    One example of a heuristic algorithm is a suboptimal (⁡) greedy coloring algorithm used for graph coloring during the register allocation phase of some compilers, a technique called graph-coloring global register allocation. Each vertex is a variable, edges are drawn between variables which are being used at the same time, and colors indicate ...
