    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_wrap_and_word_wrap

    The greedy algorithm for line-breaking predates the dynamic programming method outlined by Donald Knuth in an unpublished 1977 memo describing his TeX typesetting system [4] and later published in more detail by Knuth & Plass (1981).

  3. Activity selection problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_selection_problem

    Unlike the unweighted version, there is no greedy solution to the weighted activity selection problem. However, a dynamic programming solution can readily be formed using the following approach: [1] Consider an optimal solution containing activity k. We now have non-overlapping activities on the left and right of k. We can recursively find ...

  4. Algorithmic technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_technique

    An evolutionary approach develops candidate solutions and then, in a manner similar to biological evolution, performs a series of random alterations or combinations of these solutions and evaluates the new results against a fitness function. The most fit or promising results are selected for additional iterations, to achieve an overall optimal ...

  5. Bellman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellman_equation

    The dynamic programming approach describes the optimal plan by finding a rule that tells what the controls should be, given any possible value of the state. For example, if consumption ( c ) depends only on wealth ( W ), we would seek a rule c ( W ) {\displaystyle c(W)} that gives consumption as a function of wealth.

  6. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    The dynamic programming approach to solve this problem involves breaking it apart into a sequence of smaller decisions. To do so, we define a sequence of value functions V t ( k ) {\displaystyle V_{t}(k)} , for t = 0 , 1 , 2 , … , T , T + 1 {\displaystyle t=0,1,2,\ldots ,T,T+1} which represent the value of having any amount of capital k at ...

  7. Combinatorial optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_optimization

    Widely applicable approaches include branch-and-bound (an exact algorithm which can be stopped at any point in time to serve as heuristic), branch-and-cut (uses linear optimisation to generate bounds), dynamic programming (a recursive solution construction with limited search window) and tabu search (a greedy-type swapping algorithm). However ...

  9. Travelling salesman problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travelling_salesman_problem

    One of the earliest applications of dynamic programming is the Held–Karp algorithm, which solves the problem in time (). [24] This bound has also been reached by Exclusion-Inclusion in an attempt preceding the dynamic programming approach. Solution to a symmetric TSP with 7 cities using brute force search.
