Algorithm design strategies such as divide and conquer. Elementary techniques for analysis; asymptotic analysis, recursion equations, estimation methods, elementary combinatorial arguments.

Algorithm design and analysis is fundamental to all areas of computer science and gives a rigorous framework for the study optimization. This course provides an introduction to algorithm design ...

In this paper we examine the Cuthill-McKee algorithm for ordering the unknowns and equations in systems of linear equations, Ax = b, where A is sparse, symmetric, and positive definite. This algorithm ...

Some accelerated procedures such as the EM gradient algorithm and the Quasi-Newton EM algorithm are modified to improve the convergence rate of the basic EM algorithm. Results from simulation studies ...
