Jan 8, 2011 · How would you go about testing all possible combinations of additions from a given set N of numbers so they add up to a given final number? A brief example: Set of numbers to add: N = …

Robust peak detection algorithm (using z-scores) I came up with an algorithm that works very well for these types of datasets. It is based on the principle of dispersion: if a new datapoint is a given x …

While solving a geometry problem, I came across an approach called Sliding Window Algorithm. Couldn't really find any study material/details on it. What is the algorithm about?

Aug 26, 2008 · How do I calculate the distance between two points specified by latitude and longitude? For clarification, I'd like the distance in kilometers; the points use the WGS84 system and I'd like to …

Oct 23, 2012 · A* is just like Dijkstra, the only difference is that A* tries to look for a better path by using a heuristic function which gives priority to nodes that are supposed to be better than others while …

What you're looking for are called String Metric algorithms. There a significant number of them, many with similar characteristics. Among the more popular: Levenshtein Distance : The minimum number …

Feb 25, 2010 · An algorithm is the description of an automated solution to a problem. What the algorithm does is precisely defined. The solution could or could not be the best possible one but you know from …

At each iteration the algorithm chooses a node to expand from the open set (the one with the lowest f function - the f function is the sum of the cost the algorithm already knows it takes to get to the node …

Mar 20, 2019 · I was wondering when one should use Prim's algorithm and when Kruskal's to find the minimum spanning tree? They both have easy logics, same worst cases, and only difference is …

If you google for sort order windows explorer you will find out that Windows Explorer (since Windows XP) obviously uses the function StrCmpLogicalW in the sort order "by name". I did not find …
