  2. Edge of chaos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_of_chaos

    The prominent feature of systems with self-adjusting parameters is an ability to avoid chaos. The name for this phenomenon is "Adaptation to the edge of chaos" . Adaptation to the edge of chaos refers to the idea that many complex adaptive systems (CASs) seem to intuitively evolve toward a regime near the boundary between chaos and order. [ 19 ]

  3. Skew heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_heap

    A skew heap (or self-adjusting heap) is a heap data structure implemented as a binary tree. Skew heaps are advantageous because of their ability to merge more quickly than binary heaps. In contrast with binary heaps, there are no structural constraints, so there is no guarantee that the height of the tree is logarithmic. Only two conditions ...

  4. Robert Tarjan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Tarjan

    The Hopcroft–Tarjan planarity testing algorithm was the first linear-time algorithm for planarity testing. [11] Tarjan has also developed important data structures such as the Fibonacci heap (a heap data structure consisting of a forest of trees), and the splay tree (a self-adjusting binary search tree; co-invented by Tarjan and Daniel Sleator).

  5. Self-tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-tuning

    Self-tuning metaheuristics have emerged as a significant advancement in the field of optimization algorithms in recent years, since fine tuning can be a very long and difficult process. [3] These algorithms differentiate themselves by their ability to autonomously adjust their parameters in response to the problem at hand, enhancing efficiency ...

  6. Adaptive control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_control

    Adaptive control is the control method used by a controller which must adapt to a controlled system with parameters which vary, or are initially uncertain. [1] [2] For example, as an aircraft flies, its mass will slowly decrease as a result of fuel consumption; a control law is needed that adapts itself to such changing conditions.

  7. Pairing heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pairing_heap

    A pairing heap is a type of heap data structure with relatively simple implementation and excellent practical amortized performance, introduced by Michael Fredman, Robert Sedgewick, Daniel Sleator, and Robert Tarjan in 1986. [1]

    Daniel Dominic Kaplan Sleator (born 10 December 1953) is a Professor of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, United States.In 1999, he won the ACM Paris Kanellakis Award (jointly with Robert Tarjan) for the splay tree data structure.
