  2. Change-making problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change-making_problem

    The change-making problem addresses the question of finding the minimum number of coins (of certain denominations) that add up to a given amount of money. It is a special case of the integer knapsack problem, and has applications wider than just currency. It is also the most common variation of the coin change problem, a general case of ...

  3. Heap's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap's_algorithm

    Wheel diagram of all permutations of length generated by Heap's algorithm, where each permutation is color-coded (1=blue, 2=green, 3=yellow, 4=red). Heap's algorithm generates all possible permutations of n objects. It was first proposed by B. R. Heap in 1963. [ 1 ] The algorithm minimizes movement: it generates each permutation from the ...

  4. Permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation

    A k-combination of a set S is a k-element subset of S: the elements of a combination are not ordered. Ordering the k-combinations of S in all possible ways produces the k-permutations of S. The number of k-combinations of an n-set, C(n,k), is therefore related to the number of k-permutations of n by: (,) = (,) (,) = _! =!

  5. Formulas for generating Pythagorean triples - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formulas_for_generating...

    Each child is itself the parent of 3 more children, and so on. If one begins with primitive triple [3, 4, 5], all primitive triples will eventually be produced by application of these matrices. The result can be graphically represented as an infinite ternary tree with [a, b, c] at the root node.

  6. Decision table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_table

    Decision table. Decision tables are a concise visual representation for specifying which actions to perform depending on given conditions. Decision table is the term used for a Control table or State-transition table in the field of Business process modeling; they are usually formatted as the transpose of the way they are formatted in Software ...

  7. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    Timsort is a stable sorting algorithm (order of elements with same key is kept) and strives to perform balanced merges (a merge thus merges runs of similar sizes). In order to achieve sorting stability, only consecutive runs are merged. Between two non-consecutive runs, there can be an element with the same key inside the runs.

  8. Hyperparameter optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperparameter_optimization

    A hyperparameter is a parameter whose value is used to control the learning process, which must be configured before the process starts. [2] Hyperparameter optimization determines the set of hyperparameters that yields an optimal model which minimizes a predefined loss function on a given data set. [3] The objective function takes a set of ...

  9. Word n-gram language model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_n-gram_language_model

    A word n-gram language model is a purely statistical model of language. It has been superseded by recurrent neural network –based models, which have been superseded by large language models. [1] It is based on an assumption that the probability of the next word in a sequence depends only on a fixed size window of previous words.
