Learn what a divide and conquer algorithm is, how it works, and what are some examples and applications in computer science. Discover the advantages and disadvantages of this strategy.

K-nearest neighbor graph has been used for reducing the number of distance calculations in PNN-based clustering. The bottleneck of the approach is the creation of the graph. In this paper, we develop ...

Using an exclusive-read and exclusive-write (EREW) parallel random-access memory (PRAM) model with a fixed number of processors, optimal parallel algorithms are presented for several problems on ...

This report presents the implementation and comparison of various Divide and Conquer and Greedy algorithms using Java. The purpose of this application is to provide a user-friendly interface for ...

Code release for the paper A Divide and Conquer Algorithm for Predict+Optimize with Non-Convex Problems published at AAAI-22. There are example files for running experiments for each model in the main ...

In this paper, we present two divide-and-conquer algorithms for clustering large graphs. Both algorithms apply a base algorithm on several small subgraphs and then use these individual local ...

Study proposes a communication-efficient, divide and conquer algorithm that combines information from sub-machines using confidence distributions. The theoretical relationship between the number ...

Karatsuba’s divide-and-conquer multiplication algorithm takes advantage of this saving. ... For example, 12 * 21 gives the multiplications 1 * 2, 1 * 1, 2 * 2, and 2 * 1.
