  2. Skip list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_list

    A schematic picture of the skip list data structure. Each box with an arrow represents a pointer and a row is a linked list giving a sparse subsequence; the numbered boxes (in yellow) at the bottom represent the ordered data sequence.

  3. Quickhull - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quickhull

    N-dimensional Quickhull was invented in 1996 by C. Bradford Barber, David P. Dobkin, and Hannu Huhdanpaa. [1] It was an extension of Jonathan Scott Greenfield's 1990 planar Quickhull algorithm, although the 1996 authors did not know of his methods. [2] Instead, Barber et al. describe it as a deterministic variant of Clarkson and Shor's 1989 ...

  4. Time complexity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_complexity

    Graphs of functions commonly used in the analysis of algorithms, showing the number of operations N as the result of input size n for each function. In theoretical computer science, the time complexity is the computational complexity that describes the amount of computer time it takes to run an algorithm.

  5. LCP array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCP_array

    Likewise, the LCP of A[2] = ab and A[3] = abaab is ab, so H[3] = 2. Augmenting the suffix array with the LCP array allows one to efficiently simulate top-down and bottom-up traversals of the suffix tree , [ 1 ] [ 2 ] speeds up pattern matching on the suffix array [ 3 ] and is a prerequisite for compressed suffix trees.

  6. Convex hull algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_hull_algorithms

    Created independently in 1977 by W. Eddy and in 1978 by A. Bykat. Just like the quicksort algorithm, it has the expected time complexity of O(n log n), but may degenerate to O(n 2) in the worst case. Divide and conquer, a.k.a. merge hull — O(n log n) Another O(n log n) algorithm, published in 1977 by Preparata and Hong. This algorithm is also ...

  7. DBSCAN - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBSCAN

    DBSCAN executes exactly one such query for each point, and if an indexing structure is used that executes a neighborhood query in O(log n), an overall average runtime complexity of O(n log n) is obtained (if parameter ε is chosen in a meaningful way, i.e. such that on average only O(log n) points are returned).

  8. Bin packing problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_packing_problem

    It requires Θ(n log n) time, where n is the number of items to be packed. The algorithm can be made much more effective by first sorting the list of items into decreasing order (sometimes known as the first-fit decreasing algorithm), although this still does not guarantee an optimal solution and for longer lists may increase the running time ...

  9. Computational complexity of mathematical operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity...

    Here, complexity refers to the time complexity of performing computations on a multitape Turing machine. [1] See big O notation for an explanation of the notation used. Note: Due to the variety of multiplication algorithms, M ( n ) {\displaystyle M(n)} below stands in for the complexity of the chosen multiplication algorithm.
