Fundamentals of Algorithms with Applications

Michael T. Goodrich's Fundamentals of Algorithms with Applications gives good coverage to algorithmic principles and their application. It covers growth functions, basic data structures, sorting, selection, dynamic programming, graph algorithms-the principles of algorithm design. Advanced topics such as NP-completeness, approximation algorithms, and randomized algorithms are also explored. Goodrich's book is well-recognized for its lucid explanations of the exercises on these complex topics to make them understandable and lively. Theoretically sound, with practical applications, this book suits both students and professionals in developing problem-solving skills and computational understanding.

Advanced Algorithms by Anupam Gupta

These all are very extensive notes on fairly advanced topics in algorithms—both theoretical and practical. Here we deal with discrete algorithms for minimum spanning trees, arborescences (directed spanning trees), dynamic algorithms for problems in graph connectivity, and the shortest path. Other topics discussed in the paper are the combinatorial, algebraic algorithms for graph matching techniques and their corresponding challenges developed within high-dimensional spaces via the technique of dimension reduction and streaming algorithms. Other topics but not triangulated within include the approximate max-flows, online learning, and interior-point methods. The notes thus present a framework in its totality for learning and analyzing super advanced algorithms and thus become a good source to glean insights for an ocean of problems in computer science.

Lecture Notes On Design And Analysis Of Algorithms

Lecture Notes on Design and Analysis of Algorithms by Mr. S.K. Sathua, Dr. M.R. Kabat, and Dr. R. Mohanty, published November 14, 2020, is an 80-page document that provides a vital summary of some of the significant notions of algorithms. It first of all provides the basics of the growth of functions and recurrences, while techniques for the solution of these recurrences include substitution and recursion trees. These notes introduce the Master Method for analyzing divide and conquer algorithms and provide worst-case analysis of merge sort, quick sort, and binary search. Other topics it covers are heaps, heap sort, priority queues, and sorting lower bounds, thus proving very valuable for comprehending core principles in algorithm analysis and design.

Advanced Algorithms Lectures by Shuchi Chawla

Advanced Algorithms Lectures by Shuchi Chawla give an insight into advanced techniques in the design and analysis of algorithms. The lectures cover topics such as greedy algorithms, dynamic programming, and network flow applications. Advanced topics, including randomized algorithms and Karger's min-cut algorithm, NP-completeness, together with linear programming, primal-dual algorithms, and semi-definite programming, are discussed. Chawla also deals with models like Probably Approximately Correct (PAC) and boosting within this framework. This set of lectures comprehensively covers advanced algorithmic methodologies along with their applications and constitutes an excellent resource for students and researchers interested in advanced classes of algorithmic techniques and their applications to pressing real-world problems.

Approximation Algorithms

Approximation Algorithms

The lecture notes on Approximation Algorithms by Shuchi Chawla focus on techniques of designing algorithms that produce near-optimal solutions to complex optimization problems for which finding an exact solution is computationally infeasible. These lecture notes cover general underlying techniques of approximation algorithms, comprising basic building blocks and the foundation needed to deal with problems which are difficult to solve exactly due to computational complexity. These notes by Chawla provide an outline of various methods for approaching different optimization problems and ways of solving them when exact algorithms are not practical. Further, this resource is likely to be extremely helpful with respect to devising and applying approximation algorithms returning good solutions within a reasonable amount of time; hence, this is a must for scholars and practitioners faced with hard optimization problems.
