  2. Strip packing problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strip_packing_problem

    The algorithm iterates the sequence in the given order. For each considered item , it searches for the bottom-most position to place it and then shifts it as far to the left as possible. Hence, it places at the bottom-most left-most possible coordinate (,) in the strip.

  3. Skyline operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyline_operator

    The skyline operator is the subject of an optimization problem and computes the Pareto optimum on tuples with multiple dimensions. This operator is an extension to SQL proposed by Börzsönyi et al. [ 1 ] to filter results from a database to keep only those objects that are not worse in multiple dimensions than any other.

  4. Skyline matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyline_matrix

    In column-oriented skyline storage, only the entries from the first nonzero entry to the last nonzero entry in each column are stored. There is also row oriented skyline storage, and, for symmetric matrices, only one triangle is usually stored. [2] A column-oriented skyline matrix (on the top). On the bottom is the relative storage structure.

  5. Sparse matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_matrix

    The lower bandwidth of a matrix A is the smallest number p such that the entry a i,j vanishes whenever i > j + p. Similarly, the upper bandwidth is the smallest number p such that a i,j = 0 whenever i < j − p (Golub & Van Loan 1996, §1.2.1). For example, a tridiagonal matrix has lower bandwidth 1 and upper bandwidth 1. As another example ...

  6. Fortune's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortune's_algorithm

    As Fortune describes in ref., [1] a modified version of the sweep line algorithm can be used to construct an additively weighted Voronoi diagram, in which the distance to each site is offset by the weight of the site; this may equivalently be viewed as a Voronoi diagram of a set of disks, centered at the sites with radius equal to the weight of the site. the algorithm is found to have ...

  7. Method of Four Russians - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_Four_Russians

    The main idea of the method is to partition the matrix into small square blocks of size t × t for some parameter t, and to use a lookup table to perform the algorithm quickly within each block. The index into the lookup table encodes the values of the matrix cells on the upper left of the block boundary prior to some operation of the algorithm ...

  8. Band matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band_matrix

    Formally, consider an n×n matrix A=(a i,j).If all matrix elements are zero outside a diagonally bordered band whose range is determined by constants k 1 and k 2: , = < > +;, then the quantities k 1 and k 2 are called the lower bandwidth and upper bandwidth, respectively. [1]

  9. Block matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_matrix

    In mathematics, a block matrix or a partitioned matrix is a matrix that is interpreted as having been broken into sections called blocks or submatrices. [1] [2]Intuitively, a matrix interpreted as a block matrix can be visualized as the original matrix with a collection of horizontal and vertical lines, which break it up, or partition it, into a collection of smaller matrices.
