Algorithms & data structures

terminal

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The set of points in a plane or vertices in a graph defining endpoints of a Steiner tree.

polyhedron

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The set of solutions to a finite system of linear inequalities on real-valued variables. Equivalently, the intersection of a finite number of linear half-spaces in R n .

simplex

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The simplest N-dimensional polytope. The generalization of a triangle (2D) or tetrahedron (3D).

suffix automaton

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The smallest automaton accepting all suffixes of a string. The states form a directed acyclic word graph or DAWG.

minimum bounding box (MBB)

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The smallest rectangle completely enclosing a set of points.

minimum cut

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The smallest set of edges in an undirected graph which separate two distinct vertices. That is, every path between them includes some member of the set.

feedback edge set

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

The smallest set of edges whose deletion results in an acyclic graph.
