n - the number of input integers. If n is a small fixed number, then an exhaustive search for the solution is practical. L - the precision of the problem, stated as the number of binary place values that it takes to state the problem. If L is a small fixed number, then there are dynamic programming algorithms that can solve it exactly.
Maximum subarray problems arise in many fields, such as genomic sequence analysis and computer vision.. Genomic sequence analysis employs maximum subarray algorithms to identify important biological segments of protein sequences that have unusual properties, by assigning scores to points within the sequence that are positive when a motif to be recognized is present, and negative when it is not ...
Greedy number partitioning (also called the Largest Processing Time in the scheduling literature) loops over the numbers, and puts each number in the set whose current sum is smallest. If the numbers are not sorted, then the runtime is O ( n ) {\displaystyle O(n)} and the approximation ratio is at most 2 − 1 / k {\displaystyle 2-1/k} .
The multiple subset sum problem is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.It is a generalization of the subset sum problem.The input to the problem is a multiset of n integers and a positive integer m representing the number of subsets.
Pairwise summation is the default summation algorithm in NumPy [9] and the Julia technical-computing language, [10] where in both cases it was found to have comparable speed to naive summation (thanks to the use of a large base case).
In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total.Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions, vectors, matrices, polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.
Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.
In number theory, a narcissistic number [1] [2] (also known as a pluperfect digital invariant (PPDI), [3] an Armstrong number [4] (after Michael F. Armstrong) [5] or a plus perfect number) [6] in a given number base is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.
