  2. Binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_tree

    Fig. 1: A binary search tree of size 9 and depth 3, with 8 at the root. In computer science, a binary search tree (BST), also called an ordered or sorted binary tree, is a rooted binary tree data structure with the key of each internal node being greater than all the keys in the respective node's left subtree and less than the ones in its right subtree.

  3. Optimal binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_binary_search_tree

    The splay tree is a form of binary search tree invented in 1985 by Daniel Sleator and Robert Tarjan on which the standard search tree operations run in (⁡ ()) amortized time. [10] It is conjectured to be dynamically optimal in the required sense. That is, a splay tree is believed to perform any sufficiently long access sequence X in time O ...

  5. Tree traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_traversal

    In depth-first search (DFS), the search tree is deepened as much as possible before going to the next sibling. To traverse binary trees with depth-first search, perform the following operations at each node: [3] [4] If the current node is empty then return. Execute the following three operations in a certain order: [5] N: Visit the current node.

  6. AA tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AA_tree

    An AA tree in computer science is a form of balanced tree used for storing and retrieving ordered data efficiently. AA trees are named after their originator, Swedish computer scientist Arne Andersson. [1] AA trees are a variation of the red–black tree, a form of binary search tree which supports efficient addition and deletion of entries ...

  7. AVL tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVL_tree

    Fig. 1: AVL tree with balance factors (green) In computer science, an AVL tree (named after inventors Adelson-Velsky and Landis) is a self-balancing binary search tree. In an AVL tree, the heights of the two child subtrees of any node differ by at most one; if at any time they differ by more than one, rebalancing is done to restore this property.

  8. Branch and bound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_and_bound

    The following is the skeleton of a generic branch and bound algorithm for minimizing an arbitrary objective function f. [3] To obtain an actual algorithm from this, one requires a bounding function bound, that computes lower bounds of f on nodes of the search tree, as well as a problem-specific branching rule.

  9. B-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree

    The B-tree generalizes the binary search tree, allowing for nodes with more than two children. [2] Unlike other self-balancing binary search trees, the B-tree is well suited for storage systems that read and write relatively large blocks of data, such as databases and file systems.
