  2. Hamming weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_weight

    As Wegner described in 1960, [12] the bitwise AND of x with x − 1 differs from x only in zeroing out the least significant nonzero bit: subtracting 1 changes the rightmost string of 0s to 1s, and changes the rightmost 1 to a 0. If x originally had n bits that were 1, then after only n iterations of this operation, x will be reduced to zero ...

  3. Entropy coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_coding

    In information theory, an entropy coding (or entropy encoding) is any lossless data compression method that attempts to approach the lower bound declared by Shannon's source coding theorem, which states that any lossless data compression method must have an expected code length greater than or equal to the entropy of the source.

  4. String-searching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String-searching_algorithm

    A basic example of string searching is when the pattern and the searched text are arrays of elements of an alphabet Σ. Σ may be a human language alphabet, for example, the letters A through Z and other applications may use a binary alphabet (Σ = {0,1}) or a DNA alphabet (Σ = {A,C,G,T}) in bioinformatics .

  5. Sequential pattern mining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_Pattern_Mining

    Sequential pattern mining is a topic of data mining concerned with finding statistically relevant patterns between data examples where the values are delivered in a sequence. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is usually presumed that the values are discrete, and thus time series mining is closely related, but usually considered a different activity.

  6. Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm - Wikipedia

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

    The key insight in this algorithm is that if the end of the pattern is compared to the text, then jumps along the text can be made rather than checking every character of the text. The reason that this works is that in lining up the pattern against the text, the last character of the pattern is compared to the character in the text.

  7. Edit distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edit_distance

    Ukkonen's 1985 algorithm takes a string p, called the pattern, and a constant k; it then builds a deterministic finite state automaton that finds, in an arbitrary string s, a substring whose edit distance to p is at most k [13] (cf. the Aho–Corasick algorithm, which similarly constructs an automaton to search for any of a number of patterns ...

  8. Local binary patterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_binary_patterns

    LBPLibrary is a collection of eleven Local Binary Patterns (LBP) algorithms developed for background subtraction problem. The algorithms were implemented in C++ based on OpenCV. A CMake file is provided and the library is compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. The library was tested successfully with OpenCV 2.4.10.

  9. Kernel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_method

    In machine learning, kernel machines are a class of algorithms for pattern analysis, whose best known member is the support-vector machine (SVM). These methods involve using linear classifiers to solve nonlinear problems. [1]
