Algorithms & data structures

isomorphic

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Two graphs are isomorphic if there is a one-to-one correspondence between their vertices and there is an edge between two vertices of one graph if and only if there is an edge between the two ...

visible

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Two points p and q are visible if the straight line segment between them does not intersect any other object, edge, etc.

prisoner's dilemma

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Two prisoners are questioned separately about a crime they committed. Each may give evidence against the other or may say nothing. If both say nothing, they get a minor reprimand and go free because ...

adjacent

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Two vertices of a graph are adjacent if there is an edge between them. Two edges of a graph are adjacent if they connect the same vertex.

fractional solution

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Typically, a solution to a relaxation of an optimization problem.

hashbelt

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Use a short list or array of hash tables to implement a hash table with aging to expire items. To expire items, add a new table at the head of the list and drop the oldest table, along with its ...

star encoding

Computer science; Algorithms & data structures

Using a fixed dictionary, encode words in text with strings having many repeated characters, typically an asterisk or "star" (*).
