It is another approach of Boyer Moore Algorithm. Sometimes it is called the Good Suffix Heuristic method. For this case, a preprocessing table is created as suffix table. In this procedure, the substring or pattern is searched from the last character of the pattern. When a substring of main string matches with a substring of the pattern, it moves to find other occurrences of the matched substring. It can also move to find a prefix of the pattern which is a suffix of main string. Otherwise, it moves the whole length of the pattern.Input and OutputInput: Main String: “ABAAABCDBBABCDDEBCABC”, Pattern: ... Read More

The bad character heuristic method is one of the approaches of Boyer Moore Algorithm. Another approach is Good Suffix Heuristic. In this method we will try to find a bad character, that means a character of the main string, which is not matching with the pattern. When the mismatch has occurred, we will shift the entire pattern until the mismatch becomes a match, otherwise, pattern moves past the bad character.Here the time complexity is O(m/n) for best case and O(mn)for the worst case, where n is the length of the text and m is the length of the pattern.Input and ...

Anagrams are basically all permutations of a given string or pattern. This pattern searching algorithm is slightly different. In this case, not only the exact pattern is searched, it searches all possible arrangements of the given pattern in the text.To solve this problem, we will divide the whole texts into several windows of length same as patterns. Then count on each character of the pattern is found and stored in an array. For each window, we also try to find the count array, then check whether they are matching or not.The time Complexity of Anagram Pattern Search Algorithm is O(n).Input ... Read More

This algorithm is helpful to find all occurrences of all given set of keywords. It is a kind of Dictionary-matching algorithm. It uses a tree structure using all keywords. After making the tree, it tries to convert the tree as an automaton to make the searching in linear time. There are three different phases of Aho-Corasick Algorithm. These are Go-to, Failure, and Output. In the go-to stage, it makes the tree using all the keywords. In the next phase or in the Failure Phase, it tries to find the backward transition to get a proper suffix of some keywords. In the ... Read More

A list of items is given, each item has its own value and weight. Items can be placed in a knapsack whose maximum weight limit is W. The problem is to find the weight that is less than or equal to W, and value is maximized.There are two types of Knapsack problem.0 – 1 KnapsackFractional KnapsackFor the 0 – 1 Knapsack, items cannot be divided into smaller pieces, and for fractional knapsack, items can be broken into smaller pieces.Here we will discuss the fractional knapsack problem.The time complexity of this algorithm is O(n Log n).Input and OutputInput: Maximum weight = ...

It is similar to the previous algorithm. Here the only difference is, the Graph G(V, E) is represented by an adjacency list.Time complexity adjacency list representation is O(E log V).Input and OutputInput: The cost matrix: Output: Edge: A--B And Cost: 1 Edge: B--E And Cost: 2 Edge: A--C And Cost: 3 Edge: A--D And Cost: 4 Edge: E--F And Cost: 2 Edge: F--G And Cost: 3 Total Cost: 15Algorithmprims(g: Graph, start)Input −  The graph g and the seed vertex named ‘start’Output − The Tree after adding edges.Begin    create two set B, N    add the start node in B ...

There is a connected graph G(V, E) and the weight or cost for every edge is given. Prim’s Algorithm will find the minimum spanning tree from the graph G. It is a growing tree approach. This algorithm needs a seed value to start the tree. The seed vertex is grown to form the whole tree.The problem will be solved using two sets. One set holds the nodes that are already selected, and another set holds the item those are not considered yet. From the seed vertex, it takes adjacent vertices, based on minimum edge cost, thus it grows the tree by ... Read More

A list of arrival and departure time is given. Now the problem is to find the minimum number of platforms are required for the railway as no train waits.By sorting all timings in sorted order, we can find the solution easily, it will be easy to track when the train has arrived but not left the station.The time complexity of this problem is O(n Log n).Input and OutputInput: Lists of arrival time and departure time. Arrival: {900, 940, 950, 1100, 1500, 1800} Departure: {910, 1200, 1120, 1130, 1900, 2000} Output: Minimum Number of Platforms Required: 3AlgorithmminPlatform(arrival, departure, int n)Input − The ...

There is a list of coin C(c1, c2, ……Cn) is given and a value V is also given. Now the problem is to use the minimum number of coins to make the chance V.Note − Assume there are an infinite number of coins CIn this problem, we will consider a set of different coins C{1, 2, 5, 10} are given, There is an infinite number of coins of each type. To make change the requested value we will try to take the minimum number of coins of any type.As an example, for value 22 − we will choose {10, 10, 2}, ... Read More

There is a connected graph G(V, E) and the weight or cost for every edge is given. Kruskal’s algorithm will find the minimum spanning tree using the graph and the cost.It is the merge-tree approach. Initially, there are different trees, this algorithm will merge them by taking those edges whose cost is minimum, and form a single tree.In this problem, all of the edges are listed and sorted based on their cost. From the list, edges with minimum costs are taken out and added in the tree, and every there is a check whether the edge forming cycle or not, ... Read More
