data science

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Data science is the study and practice of deriving intelligence from the vast stores of big data. It incorporates varying elements from mathematics, statistics, data engineering, pattern recognition, ...

clustering free

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

When a collision resolution scheme spreads out entries in a hash table.

relaxed balance

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

When rebalancing a search tree is independent of updating the tree.

asymptotically tight bound

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

When the asymptotic complexity of an algorithm exactly matches the theoretically proved asymptotic complexity of the corresponding problem. Informally, when an algorithm solves a problem at the ...

polynomial time

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

When the execution time of a computation, m(n), is no more than a polynomial function of the problem size, n. More formally m(n) = O(n k ) where k is a constant.

search tree property

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

When the key of every node of a binary tree is larger than the key of its left child and smaller than its right child. A binary tree which has this property is a binary search tree.

static

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

When the problem domain does not change.
