link
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A reference, pointer, or access handle to another part of the data structure. Often, a memory address.
bintree
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A regular decomposition k-d tree for region data.
binary relation
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A relation between exactly two items at a time, such as "greater than" (>), "not equal to" (≠), "proper subset of" (⊂), or "is connected to" (has an edge to) for vertices of a graph.
weak-heap
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A relaxed heap satisfying the following three conditions: (1) every key in the right subtree of a node is greater than the key stored in the node itself, (2) the root has no left child, and (3) ...
adjacency-list representation
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A representation of a directed graph with n vertices using an array of n lists of vertices. List i contains vertex j if there is an edge from vertex i to vertex j. A weighted graph may be represented ...
adjacency-matrix representation
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A representation of a directed graph with n vertices using an n × n matrix, where the entry at (i,j) is 1 if there is an edge from vertex i to vertex j; otherwise the entry is 0. A weighted graph may ...
boundary-based representation
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
A representation of a region that is based on its boundary.
