  2. Longest alternating subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Longest_Alternating_Subsequence

    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 ...

  3. Longest common subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_subsequence

    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.

  4. Hunt–Szymanski algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunt–Szymanski_algorithm

    In computer science, the Hunt–Szymanski algorithm, [1] [2] also known as Hunt–McIlroy algorithm, is a solution to the longest common subsequence problem.It was one of the first non-heuristic algorithms used in diff which compares a pair of files each represented as a sequence of lines.

  5. Longest increasing subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_increasing_subsequence

    This subsequence has length six; the input sequence has no seven-member increasing subsequences. The longest increasing subsequence in this example is not the only solution: for instance, 0, 4, 6, 9, 11, 15 0, 2, 6, 9, 13, 15 0, 4, 6, 9, 13, 15. are other increasing subsequences of equal length in the same input sequence.

  6. Patience sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patience_sorting

    First, execute the sorting algorithm as described above. The number of piles is the length of a longest subsequence. Whenever a card is placed on top of a pile, put a back-pointer to the top card in the previous pile (that, by assumption, has a lower value than the new card has). In the end, follow the back-pointers from the top card in the ...

  7. Davenport–Schinzel sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davenport–Schinzel_sequence

    In combinatorics, a Davenport–Schinzel sequence is a sequence of symbols in which the number of times any two symbols may appear in alternation is limited. The maximum possible length of a Davenport–Schinzel sequence is bounded by the number of its distinct symbols multiplied by a small but nonconstant factor that depends on the number of alternations that are allowed.

  8. Chvátal–Sankoff constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chvátal–Sankoff_constants

    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 ...

  9. Erdős–Szekeres theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdős–Szekeres_theorem

    The length of the longest increasing subsequence is equal to the length of the first row of P. The length of the longest decreasing subsequence is equal to the length of the first column of P . Now, it is not possible to fit ( r − 1)( s − 1) + 1 entries in a square box of size ( r − 1)( s − 1), so that either the first row is of length ...
