Baum Welch algorithm

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to find hidden Markov model parameters A, B, and Π with the maximum likelihood of generating the given symbol sequence in the observation vector.

Zeller's congruence

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to find the day of the week for any date.

Doomsday rule

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to find the day of the week for any date. It is simple enough to memorize and do mentally.

extended Euclid's algorithm

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to find the greatest common divisor, g, of two positive integers, a and b, and coefficients, h and j, such that g = ha + jb.

select mode

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to find the mode, or most frequently occurring value, in a group of elements.

Dijkstra's algorithm

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to find the shortest paths from a single source vertex to all other vertices in a weighted, directed graph. All weights must be nonnegative.

shadow merge insert

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

An algorithm to insert a new node into a shadow heap. The new node is placed in the unordered table. When the table grows beyond some threshold size, table nodes and all their parents are reordered ...
