  2. Largest differencing method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_differencing_method

    There is evidence for the good performance of LDM: [2] Simulation experiments show that, when the numbers are uniformly random in [0,1], LDM always performs better (i.e., produces a partition with a smaller largest sum) than greedy number partitioning. It performs better than the multifit algorithm when the number of items n is sufficiently large.

  3. Snowflake schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_schema

    Snowflake schema used by example query. The example schema shown to the right is a snowflaked version of the star schema example provided in the star schema article. The following example query is the snowflake schema equivalent of the star schema example code which returns the total number of television units sold by brand and by country for 1997.

  4. Balanced number partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_number_partitioning

    The two subsets should contain floor(n/2) and ceiling(n/2) items. It is a variant of the partition problem. It is NP-hard to decide whether there exists a partition in which the sums in the two subsets are equal; see [4] problem [SP12]. There are many algorithms that aim to find a balanced partition in which the sum is as nearly-equal as possible.

  5. Integer partition - Wikipedia

    2 + 2 + 1; 2 + 1 + 1 + 1; 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1; Some authors treat a partition as a decreasing sequence of summands, rather than an expression with plus signs. For example, the partition 2 + 2 + 1 might instead be written as the tuple (2, 2, 1) or in the even more compact form (2 2, 1) where the superscript indicates the number of repetitions of a ...

  6. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    In number theory and computer science, the partition problem, or number partitioning, [1] is the task of deciding whether a given multiset S of positive integers can be partitioned into two subsets S 1 and S 2 such that the sum of the numbers in S 1 equals the sum of the numbers in S 2. Although the partition problem is NP-complete, there is a ...

  7. Multiway number partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_number_partitioning

    [1]: sec.5 The problem is parametrized by a positive integer k, and called k-way number partitioning. [2] The input to the problem is a multiset S of numbers (usually integers), whose sum is k*T. The associated decision problem is to decide whether S can be partitioned into k subsets such that the sum of each subset is exactly T.

  8. Recursive partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_partitioning

    Recursive partitioning is a statistical method for multivariable analysis. [1] Recursive partitioning creates a decision tree that strives to correctly classify members of the population by splitting it into sub-populations based on several dichotomous independent variables .

  9. Stirling numbers of the second kind - Wikipedia

    Denote the n objects to partition by the integers 1, 2, ..., n. Define the reduced Stirling numbers of the second kind, denoted (,), to be the number of ways to partition the integers 1, 2, ..., n into k nonempty subsets such that all elements in each subset have pairwise distance at least d.
