  2. Subset sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem

    Whenever the sum of the current element in the first array and the current element in the second array is more than T, the algorithm moves to the next element in the first array. If it is less than T, the algorithm moves to the next element in the second array. If two elements that sum to T are found, it stops. (The sub-problem for two elements ...

  3. Maximum subarray problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_subarray_problem

    In this case, the array from which samples are taken is [2, 3, -1, -20, 5, 10]. In computer science, the maximum sum subarray problem, also known as the maximum segment sum problem, is the task of finding a contiguous subarray with the largest sum, within a given one-dimensional array A [1...n] of numbers. It can be solved in time and space.

  4. Set cover problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_cover_problem

    More formally, given a universe and a family of subsets of , a set cover is a subfamily of sets whose union is . In the set cover decision problem, the input is a pair and an integer ; the question is whether there is a set cover of size or less. In the set cover optimization problem, the input is a pair , and the task is to find a set cover ...

  5. LCP array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCP_array

    LCP array. In computer science, the longest common prefix array (LCP array) is an auxiliary data structure to the suffix array. It stores the lengths of the longest common prefixes (LCPs) between all pairs of consecutive suffixes in a sorted suffix array. For example, if A := [aab, ab, abaab, b, baab] is a suffix array, the longest common ...

  6. Stable marriage problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_marriage_problem

    Stable marriage problem. In mathematics, economics, and computer science, the stable marriage problem (also stable matching problem) is the problem of finding a stable matching between two equally sized sets of elements given an ordering of preferences for each element. A matching is a bijection from the elements of one set to the elements of ...

  7. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.

  8. Longest increasing subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_increasing_subsequence

    one of the longest increasing subsequences is. 0, 2, 6, 9, 11, 15. This subsequence has length six; the input sequence has no seven-member increasing subsequences. The longest increasing subsequence in this example is not the only solution: for instance, are other increasing subsequences of equal length in the same input sequence.

  9. Closest pair of points problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closest_pair_of_points_problem

    The closest pair of points problem or closest pair problem is a problem of computational geometry: given points in metric space, find a pair of points with the smallest distance between them. The closest pair problem for points in the Euclidean plane [1] was among the first geometric problems that were treated at the origins of the systematic ...
