  2. List of NP-complete problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NP-complete_problems

    NP-complete special cases include the edge dominating set problem, i.e., the dominating set problem in line graphs. NP-complete variants include the connected dominating set problem and the maximum leaf spanning tree problem. [3]: ND2 Feedback vertex set [2] [3]: GT7 Feedback arc set [2] [3]: GT8 Graph coloring [2] [3]: GT4

  3. NP-completeness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP-completeness

    "A large-scale quantum computer would be able to efficiently solve NP-complete problems." The class of decision problems that can be efficiently solved (in principle) by a fault-tolerant quantum computer is known as BQP. However, BQP is not believed to contain all of NP, and if it does not, then it cannot contain any NP-complete problem. [15]

  4. P versus NP problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem

    In this theory, the class P consists of all decision problems (defined below) solvable on a deterministic sequential machine in a duration polynomial in the size of the input; the class NP consists of all decision problems whose positive solutions are verifiable in polynomial time given the right information, or equivalently, whose solution can ...

  5. Element distinctness problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Element_distinctness_problem

    If the elements in the problem are real numbers, the decision-tree lower bound extends to the real random-access machine model with an instruction set that includes addition, subtraction and multiplication of real numbers, as well as comparison and either division or remaindering ("floor"). [5]

  6. Decision tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_tree

    Decision trees can also be seen as generative models of induction rules from empirical data. An optimal decision tree is then defined as a tree that accounts for most of the data, while minimizing the number of levels (or "questions"). [8] Several algorithms to generate such optimal trees have been devised, such as ID3/4/5, [9] CLS, ASSISTANT ...

  7. Greedy algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm

    A greedy algorithm is used to construct a Huffman tree during Huffman coding where it finds an optimal solution. In decision tree learning, greedy algorithms are commonly used, however they are not guaranteed to find the optimal solution. One popular such algorithm is the ID3 algorithm for decision tree construction.

  8. Decision tree model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_tree_model

    Decision Tree Model. In computational complexity theory, the decision tree model is the model of computation in which an algorithm can be considered to be a decision tree, i.e. a sequence of queries or tests that are done adaptively, so the outcome of previous tests can influence the tests performed next.

  9. Karp's 21 NP-complete problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karp's_21_NP-complete_problems

    In computational complexity theory, Karp's 21 NP-complete problems are a set of computational problems which are NP-complete.In his 1972 paper, "Reducibility Among Combinatorial Problems", [1] Richard Karp used Stephen Cook's 1971 theorem that the boolean satisfiability problem is NP-complete [2] (also called the Cook-Levin theorem) to show that there is a polynomial time many-one reduction ...
