This course continues our data structures and algorithms specialization by focussing on the use of linear and integer programming formulations for solving algorithmic problems that seek optimal ...

Algorithms are turning up in the most unlikely places, promising to assert mathematical probability into corners of our lives where intuition, instinct and hunches have long held sway.

It covers basic algorithm design techniques such as divide and conquer, dynamic programming, and greedy algorithms. It concludes with a brief introduction to intractability (NP-completeness) .

Ever wondered how computers multiply huge numbers with hundreds or even thousands of digits? The process may seem simple, but it gets incredibly complex as numbers grow. In this video, we explore the ...

This paper presents the results of experimentation on the development of an efficient branch-and-bound algorithm for the solution of zero-one linear mixed integer programming problems. An implicit ...

Programming and prejudice: Computer scientists discover how to find bias in algorithms Date: August 14, 2015 Source: University of Utah Summary: Software may appear to operate without bias because ...

The algorithm presented here overcomes all of these shortcomings. Most significantly, it exhibits only a linear growth in the solution times based on the number of connections between nodes.

Programming smart molecules: Machine-learning algorithms could make chemical reactions intelligent Date: December 12, 2013 Source: Harvard University Summary: Computer scientists have shown that ...
