In theoretical computer science, the continuous knapsack problem (also known as the fractional knapsack problem) is an algorithmic problem in combinatorial optimization in which the goal is to fill a container (the "knapsack") with fractional amounts of different materials chosen to maximize the value of the selected materials.
The knapsack problem is one of the most studied problems in combinatorial optimization, with many real-life applications. For this reason, many special cases and generalizations have been examined. For this reason, many special cases and generalizations have been examined.
A 1999 study of the Stony Brook University Algorithm Repository showed that, out of 75 algorithmic problems related to the field of combinatorial algorithms and algorithm engineering, the knapsack problem was the 19th most popular and the third most needed after suffix trees and the bin packing problem.
de Bruijn's theorem: A box can be packed with a harmonic brick a × a b × a b c if the box has dimensions a p × a b q × a b c r for some natural numbers p, q, r (i.e., the box is a multiple of the brick.) [15]
The problem of fractional knapsack with penalties was introduced by Malaguti, Monaci, Paronuzzi and Pferschy. [44] They developed an FPTAS and a dynamic program for the problem, and they showed an extensive computational study comparing the performance of their models.
The U.S. Supreme Court sidestepped on Friday a decision on whether to allow shareholders to proceed with a securities fraud lawsuit accusing Meta's Facebook of misleading investors about the ...
Note: consider In the 2-weighted knapsack problem, where each item has two weights and a value, and the goal is to maximize the value such that the sum of squares of the total weights is at most the knapsack capacity: (,) + (,). We could solve it using a similar DP, where each state is (current weight 1, current weight 2, value).
Consuming more than 45% of daily calories after 5 p.m. can contribute to greater risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular problems, and chronic inflammation, a recent study suggests.
