The longest alternating subsequence problem has also been studied in the setting of online algorithms, in which the elements of are presented in an online fashion, and a decision maker needs to decide whether to include or exclude each element at the time it is first presented, without any knowledge of the elements that will be presented in the future, and without the possibility of recalling ...
A longest common subsequence (LCS) is the longest subsequence common to all sequences in a set of sequences (often just two sequences). It differs from the longest common substring : unlike substrings, subsequences are not required to occupy consecutive positions within the original sequences.
Compute a longest common subsequence of these two strings, and let , be the random variable whose value is the length of this subsequence. Then the expected value of λ n , k {\displaystyle \lambda _{n,k}} is (up to lower-order terms) proportional to n , and the k th Chvátal–Sankoff constant γ k {\displaystyle \gamma _{k}} is the constant ...
The longest increasing subsequence has also been studied in the setting of online algorithms, in which the elements of a sequence of independent random variables with continuous distribution – or alternatively the elements of a random permutation – are presented one at a time to an algorithm that must decide whether to include or exclude ...
A longest path between two given vertices s and t in a weighted graph G is the same thing as a shortest path in a graph −G derived from G by changing every weight to its negation. Therefore, if shortest paths can be found in −G, then longest paths can also be found in G. [4]
The generator is not sensitive to the choice of c, as long as it is relatively prime to the modulus (e.g. if m is a power of 2, then c must be odd), so the value c=1 is commonly chosen. The sequence produced by other choices of c can be written as a simple function of the sequence when c=1.
Order the jobs by descending order of their processing-time, such that the job with the longest processing time is first. Schedule each job in this sequence into a machine in which the current load (= total processing-time of scheduled jobs) is smallest. Step 2 of the algorithm is essentially the list-scheduling (LS) algorithm. The difference ...
This follows from the naturality of the sequence produced by the snake lemma. If is a commutative diagram with exact rows, then the snake lemma can be applied twice, to the "front" and to the "back", yielding two long exact sequences; these are related by a commutative diagram of the form
