Algorithm — Flow chart of an algorithm (Euclid s algorithm) for calculating the greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) of two numbers a and b in locations named A and B. The algorithm proceeds by successive subtractions in two loops: IF the test B ≤ A yields yes… … Wikipedia
Nearest-neighbor chain algorithm — In the theory of cluster analysis, the nearest neighbor chain algorithm is a method that can be used to perform several types of agglomerative hierarchical clustering, using an amount of memory that is linear in the number of points to be… … Wikipedia
Kruskal's algorithm — is an algorithm in graph theory that finds a minimum spanning tree for a connected weighted graph. This means it finds a subset of the edges that forms a tree that includes every vertex, where the total weight of all the edges in the tree is… … Wikipedia

Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm — In mathematics and computing, the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm (LMA)[1] provides a numerical solution to the problem of minimizing a function, generally nonlinear, over a space of parameters of the function. These minimization problems arise… … Wikipedia
Knapsack problem — BKP redirects here. For other uses, see BKP (disambiguation). Example of a one dimensional (constraint) knapsack problem: which boxes should be chosen to maximize the amount of money while still keeping the overall weight under or equal to… … Wikipedia
Degeneracy (graph theory) — In graph theory, a k degenerate graph is an undirected graph in which every subgraph has a vertex of degree at most k: that is, some vertex in the subgraph touches k or fewer of the subgraph s edges. The degeneracy of a graph is the smallest… … Wikipedia
Distance-hereditary graph — A distance hereditary graph. In graph theoretic mathematics, a distance hereditary graph (also called a completely separable graph)[1] is a graph in which the distances in any connected induced subgraph are the same as they are in the original… … Wikipedia
Weighted matroid — In combinatorics, a branch of mathematics, a weighted matroid is a matroid endowed with function with respect to which one can perform a greedy algorithm.There is a simple algorithm for finding a basis:* Let A be the empty set. * For each x in E… … Wikipedia
