  2. Pattern search (optimization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_search_(optimization)

    Example of convergence of a direct search method on the Broyden function. At each iteration, the pattern either moves to the point which best minimizes its objective function, or shrinks in size if no point is better than the current point, until the desired accuracy has been achieved, or the algorithm reaches a predetermined number of iterations.

  3. Search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_algorithm

    Specific applications of search algorithms include: Problems in combinatorial optimization, such as: . The vehicle routing problem, a form of shortest path problem; The knapsack problem: Given a set of items, each with a weight and a value, determine the number of each item to include in a collection so that the total weight is less than or equal to a given limit and the total value is as ...

  4. Indexer (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexer_(programming)

    Indexers are implemented through the get and set accessors for the operator [].They are similar to properties, but differ by not being static, and the fact that indexers' accessors take parameters.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okapi_BM25

    It is based on the probabilistic retrieval framework developed in the 1970s and 1980s by Stephen E. Robertson, Karen Spärck Jones, and others. The name of the actual ranking function is BM25 . The fuller name, Okapi BM25 , includes the name of the first system to use it, which was the Okapi information retrieval system, implemented at London ...

  6. Pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_matching

    Tree patterns are used in some programming languages as a general tool to process data based on its structure, e.g. C#, [1] F#, [2] Haskell, [3] Java [4], ML, Python, [5] Ruby, [6] Rust, [7] Scala, [8] Swift [9] and the symbolic mathematics language Mathematica have special syntax for expressing tree patterns and a language construct for ...

  7. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    Note how the use of A[i][j] with multi-step indexing as in C, as opposed to a neutral notation like A(i,j) as in Fortran, almost inevitably implies row-major order for syntactic reasons, so to speak, because it can be rewritten as (A[i])[j], and the A[i] row part can even be assigned to an intermediate variable that is then indexed in a separate expression.

  8. Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Moore_string-search...

    This uses information gleaned during the pre-processing of the pattern in conjunction with suffix match lengths recorded at each match attempt. Storing suffix match lengths requires an additional table equal in size to the text being searched. The Raita algorithm improves the performance of Boyer–Moore–Horspool algorithm. The searching ...

  9. Latent semantic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_semantic_analysis

    Latent semantic indexing (LSI) is an indexing and retrieval method that uses a mathematical technique called singular value decomposition (SVD) to identify patterns in the relationships between the terms and concepts contained in an unstructured collection of text. LSI is based on the principle that words that are used in the same contexts tend ...
