  2. Dijkstra's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra's_algorithm

    Dijkstra's algorithm (/ ˈ d aɪ k s t r ə z / DYKE-strəz) is an algorithm for finding the shortest paths between nodes in a weighted graph, which may represent, for example, a road network. It was conceived by computer scientist Edsger W. Dijkstra in 1956 and published three years later.

  3. Shortest-path tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest-path_tree

    In graphs that have negative cycles, the set of shortest simple paths from v to all other vertices do not necessarily form a tree. For simple connected graphs, shortest-path trees can be used [1] to suggest a non-linear relationship between two network centrality measures, closeness and degree. By assuming that the branches of the shortest-path ...

  4. Shortest path problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_path_problem

    Use a shortest path algorithm (e.g., Dijkstra's algorithm, Bellman-Ford algorithm) to find the shortest path from the source node to the sink node in the residual graph. Augment the Flow: Find the minimum capacity along the shortest path. Increase the flow on the edges of the shortest path by this minimum capacity.

  5. Dijkstra–Scholten algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra–Scholten_algorithm

    The Dijkstra–Scholten algorithm (named after Edsger W. Dijkstra and Carel S. Scholten) is an algorithm for detecting termination in a distributed system. [1] [2] The algorithm was proposed by Dijkstra and Scholten in 1980. [3] First, consider the case of a simple process graph which is a tree. A distributed computation which is tree ...

  6. Pathfinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathfinding

    A common example of a graph-based pathfinding algorithm is Dijkstra's algorithm. [3] This algorithm begins with a start node and an "open set" of candidate nodes. At each step, the node in the open set with the lowest distance from the start is examined.

  7. Shunting yard algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunting_yard_algorithm

    In computer science, the shunting yard algorithm is a method for parsing arithmetical or logical expressions, or a combination of both, specified in infix notation. It can produce either a postfix notation string, also known as reverse Polish notation (RPN), or an abstract syntax tree (AST). [ 1 ]

  8. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    From a dynamic programming point of view, Dijkstra's algorithm for the shortest path problem is a successive approximation scheme that solves the dynamic programming functional equation for the shortest path problem by the Reaching method. [8] [9] [10] In fact, Dijkstra's explanation of the logic behind the algorithm, [11] namely Problem 2.

  9. Distance oracle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_oracle

    One way to do this is just run the Dijkstra algorithm. This takes time O ( m + n log ⁡ n ) {\displaystyle O(m+n\log n)} , and requires no extra space (besides the graph itself). In order to answer many queries more efficiently, we can spend some time in pre-processing the graph and creating an auxiliary data structure.
