Algorithms are the foundation of modern computing. They help computers solve problems, process data, and make decisions efficiently. Understanding the different types of algorithms is an important ...

The area of approximation algorithms is aimed at giving provable guarantees on the performance of heuristics for hard problems. The course will present general techniques (such as convex ...

In recent years, the prospect of real-world quantum computing has raised hopes for solving hard combinatorial optimisation problems, leading to tremendous theoretical work on developing and analysing ...

The app that simplifies group expenses, Splitwise, has solved more than everyday problems. It has quietly reshaped how groups of people handle shared money. With a net valuation of over $100 million ...

Abstract: To address the problems of slow convergence, low search accuracy, and easy fall into local optimum, and generating a large number of infeasible solutions when solving the 0–1 Knapsack ...

Abstract: Knapsack problem is a classical optimization problem in computer science and programming. Knapsack problem main objective is to solve how much the maximum profit can be carried with the ...

In technical interviews, the ability to solve Data Structure and Algorithm (DSA) problems efficiently is crucial. Employers seek candidates who can think critically, demonstrate problem-solving skills ...

C++ & Java implementations of 6 algorithm problems — tromino tiling, knight's tour, Tower of Hanoi (4-peg), knight swap, target shooting, and lattice coverage — using Divide & Conquer, Greedy, BFS, ...

This paper proposes a novel hybrid optimization algorithm named GPOFWA, which integrates political optimizer (PO) with fireworks algorithm (FWA) to solve numerical and engineering optimization ...
