  2. Smith–Waterman algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith–Waterman_algorithm

    Like the Needleman–Wunsch algorithm, of which it is a variation, Smith–Waterman is a dynamic programming algorithm. As such, it has the desirable property that it is guaranteed to find the optimal local alignment with respect to the scoring system being used (which includes the substitution matrix and the gap-scoring scheme).

  3. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    Dynamic programming is both a mathematical optimization method and an algorithmic paradigm. ... the strategy is called "divide and conquer" instead. [1]

  4. Needleman–Wunsch algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Needleman–Wunsch_algorithm

    The corresponding dynamic programming algorithm takes cubic time. The paper also points out that the recursion can accommodate arbitrary gap penalization formulas: A penalty factor, a number subtracted for every gap made, may be assessed as a barrier to allowing the gap. The penalty factor could be a function of the size and/or direction of the ...

  5. Gap penalty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gap_penalty

    The most widely used gap penalty function is the affine gap penalty. The affine gap penalty combines the components in both the constant and linear gap penalty, taking the form + (). This introduces new terms, A is known as the gap opening penalty, B the gap extension penalty and L the length of the gap.

  6. Knapsack problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knapsack_problem

    There is a pseudo-polynomial time algorithm using dynamic programming. There is a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme, which uses the pseudo-polynomial time algorithm as a subroutine, described below. Many cases that arise in practice, and "random instances" from some distributions, can nonetheless be solved exactly.

  7. Multi-objective optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-objective_optimization

    Multi-objective optimization or Pareto optimization (also known as multi-objective programming, vector optimization, multicriteria optimization, or multiattribute optimization) is an area of multiple-criteria decision making that is concerned with mathematical optimization problems involving more than one objective function to be optimized simultaneously.

  8. Bin packing problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_packing_problem

    The intuition for this strategy is to reduce the huge waste for bins containing pieces that are just larger than . This algorithm was first described by Lee and Lee. [ 16 ] They proved that for k = 20 {\displaystyle k=20} it holds that R R H ∞ ≤ 373 / 228 {\displaystyle R_{RH}^{\infty }\leq 373/228} .

  9. Bellman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellman_equation

    The dynamic programming approach describes the optimal plan by finding a rule that tells what the controls should be, given any possible value of the state. For example, if consumption ( c ) depends only on wealth ( W ), we would seek a rule c ( W ) {\displaystyle c(W)} that gives consumption as a function of wealth.
