45 What Is Important in Algorithm under My Concern?

46 I. Proof and Witness

47 Mathematical Induction. Proof and Witness

48 Proof and Witness Mathematical Induction. Proof of iff, =,

49 Proof and Witness Mathematical Induction. Proof of iff, =, Deduction.

50 Examples log n! = Θ(n log n)

51 Examples log n! = Θ(n log n) A directed graph has a cycle if and only if its depth-first search reveals a back edge.

52 Examples log n! = Θ(n log n) A directed graph has a cycle if and only if its depth-first search reveals a back edge. An undirected graph is bipartite if and only if it contains no cycles of odd length.

53 II. Reductions

54 Bipartite Matching BOYS Al Bob Chet Dan GIRLS Alice Beatrice Carol Danielle

55 Bipartite Matching Al Alice s Bob Chet Beatrice Carol t Dan Danielle

56 Reductions We want to solve Problem P. We already have an algorithm that solves Problem Q. If any subroutine for Q can also be used to solve P, we say P reduces to Q. Often, P is solvable by a single call to Q s subroutine, which means any instance x of P can be transformed into an instance y of Q such that P(x) can be deduced from Q(y).

57 III. Divide-and-Conquer Vs. Dynamic Programming

58 Master Theorem If T(n) = at( n/b ) + O(n d ) for some constants a > 0, b > 1 and d 0, then O(n d ) if d > log b a T(n) = O(n d log n) if d = log b a O(n log b a ) if d < log b a

59 The Proof of the Theorem Proof: Assume that n is a power of b. The size of the subproblems decreases by a factor of b with each level of recursion, and therefore reaches the base case after log b n levels - the the height of the recursion tree. Its branching factor is a, so the k-th level of the tree is made up of a k subproblems, each of size n/b k. a k O( n b k )d = O(n d ) ( a b d )k k goes from 0 to log b n, these numbers form a geometric series with ratio a/b d, comes down to three cases.

60 The Proof of the Theorem The ratio is less than 1. Then the series is decreasing, and its sum is just given by its first term, O(n d ). The ratio is greater than 1. The series is increasing and its sum is given by its last term, O(n log b a ) The ratio is exactly 1. In this case all O(log n) terms of the series are equal to O(n d ).

64 The Problem When a spell checker encounters a possible misspelling, it looks in its dictionary for other words that are close by. Q: What is the appropriate notion of closeness in this case? A natural measure of the distance between two strings is the extent to which they can be aligned, or matched up. Technically, an alignment is simply a way of writing the strings one above the other.

74 A Dynamic Programming Solution When solving a problem by dynamic programming, the most crucial question is, What are the subproblems? Our goal is to find the edit distance between two strings x[1,..., m] and y[1,..., n]. For every i, j with 1 i m and 1 j n, let E(i, j): the edit distance between some prefix of the first string, x[1,..., i], and some prefix of the second, y[1,..., j]. E(i, j) = min{1 + E(i 1, j), 1 + E(i, j 1), diff(i, j) + E(i 1, j 1)}, where diff(i, j) is defined to be 0 if x[i] = y[j] and 1 otherwise.

78 Big-O Notation Multiplicative constants can be omitted: 14n 2 becomes n 2. n a dominates n b if a > b, for instance, n 2 dominates n a n dominates b n if a > b, for instance, 3 n dominates 2 n Any exponential dominates any polynomial: 3 n dominates n 5 Any polynomial dominates any logarithm: n dominates (log n) 3. This also means, for example, that n 2 dominates n log n.
