Randomized Algorithms

by Rajeev Motwani , 1995
"... Randomized algorithms, once viewed as a tool in computational number theory, have by now found widespread application. Growth has been fueled by the two major benefits of randomization: simplicity and speed. For many applications a randomized algorithm is the fastest algorithm available, or the simp ..."

, or the simplest, or both. A randomized algorithm is an algorithm that uses random numbers to influence the choices it makes in the course of its computation. Thus its behavior (typically quantified as running time or quality of output) varies from

A NEW POLYNOMIAL-TIME ALGORITHM FOR LINEAR PROGRAMMING

by N. Karmarkar - COMBINATORICA , 1984
"... We present a new polynomial-time algorithm for linear programming. In the worst case, the algorithm requires O(tf'SL) arithmetic operations on O(L) bit numbers, where n is the number of variables and L is the number of bits in the input. The running,time of this algorithm is better than the ell ..."

An algorithm for finding best matches in logarithmic expected time

by Jerome H. Friedman, Jon Louis Bentley, Raphael Ari Finkel - ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software , 1977
"... An algorithm and data structure are presented for searching a file containing N records, each described by k real valued keys, for the m closest matches or nearest neighbors to a given query record. The computation required to organize the file is proportional to kNlogN. The expected number of recor ..."

Linear pattern matching algorithms

by Peter Weiner - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 14TH ANNUAL IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON SWITCHING AND AUTOMATA THEORY. IEEE , 1972
"... In 1970, Knuth, Pratt, and Morris [1] showed how to do basic pattern matching in linear time. Related problems, such as those discussed in [4], have previously been solved by efficient but sub-optimal algorithms. In this paper, we introduce an interesting data structure called a bi-tree. A linear ti ..."

Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Prime Factorization and Discrete Logarithms on a Quantum Computer

by Peter W. Shor - SIAM J. on Computing , 1997
"... A digital computer is generally believed to be an efficient universal computing device; that is, it is believed able to simulate any physical computing device with an increase in computation time by at most a polynomial factor. This may not be true when quantum mechanics is taken into consideration. ..."

Data Streams: Algorithms and Applications

by S. Muthukrishnan , 2005
"... In the data stream scenario, input arrives very rapidly and there is limited memory to store the input. Algorithms have to work with one or few passes over the data, space less than linear in the input size or time significantly less than the input size. In the past few years, a new theory has emerg ..."

Randomized Gossip Algorithms

by Stephen Boyd, Arpita Ghosh, Balaji Prabhakar, Devavrat Shah - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY , 2006
"... Motivated by applications to sensor, peer-to-peer, and ad hoc networks, we study distributed algorithms, also known as gossip algorithms, for exchanging information and for computing in an arbitrarily connected network of nodes. The topology of such networks changes continuously as new nodes join a ..."

distribute the computational burden and in which a node communicates with a randomly chosen neighbor. We analyze the averaging problem under the gossip constraint for an arbitrary network graph, and find that the averaging time of a gossip algorithm depends on the second largest eigenvalue of a doubly

Efficient Variants of the ICP Algorithm

by Szymon Rusinkiewicz, Marc Levoy - INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON 3-D DIGITAL IMAGING AND MODELING , 2001
"... The ICP (Iterative Closest Point) algorithm is widely used for geometric alignment of three-dimensional models when an initial estimate of the relative pose is known. Many variants of ICP have been proposed, affecting all phases of the algorithm from the selection and matching of points to the minim ..."
