Algorithms and Programming is primarily intended for use in a first-year undergraduate course in programming. It is structured in a problem-solution format that requires the student to think through the programming process, thus developing an understanding of the underlying theory. The book is easily readable by a student taking a basic introductory course in computer science as well as useful for a graduate-level course in the analysis of algorithms and/or compiler construction.

Each self-contained chapter presents classical and well-known problems supplemented by clear and...

If you re an experienced programmer interested in crunching data, this book will get you started with machine learning a toolkit of algorithms that enables computers to train themselves to automate useful tasks. Authors Drew Conway and John Myles White help you understand machine learning and statistics tools through a series of hands-on case studies, instead of a traditional math-heavy presentation.

Each chapter focuses on a specific problem in machine learning, such as classification, prediction, optimization, and recommendation. Using the R programming language, you ll learn how...

When looking for ways to improve your website, how do you decide which changes to make? And which changes to keep? This concise book shows you how to use Multiarmed Bandit algorithms to measure the real-world value of any modifications you make to your site. Author John Myles White shows you how this powerful class of algorithms can help you boost website traffic, convert visitors to customers, and increase many other measures of success.

This is the first developer-focused book on bandit algorithms, which were previously described only in research papers. You'll quickly learn the...

Solve real-life programming problems with a fraction of the code that pure object-oriented programming requires. Use Scala and Clojure to solve in-depth problems with two sets of patterns: object-oriented patterns that become more concise with functional programming, and natively functional patterns. Your code will be more declarative, with fewer bugs and lower maintenance costs.

Functional languages have their own patterns that enable you to solve problems with less code than object-oriented programming alone. This book introduces you, the experienced Java programmer, to Scala...

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 10th International Workshop on Frontiers in Algorithmics, FAW 2016, held in Qingdao, China, in June/July 2016.

The 25 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. They deal with algorithm, complexity, problem, reduction, NP-complete, graph, approximation, linear programming, local search, integer programming, semidefinite programming, parameterized algorithm, fixed parameter, tractability, randomness, computational geometry.

Algorithms play an increasingly important role in nearly all fields of mathematics. This book allows readers to develop basic mathematical abilities, in particular those concerning the design and analysis of algorithms as well as their implementation. It presents not only fundamental algorithms like the sieve of Eratosthenes, the Euclidean algorithm, sorting algorithms, algorithms on graphs, and Gaussian elimination, but also discusses elementary data structures, basic graph theory, and numerical questions. In addition, it provides an introduction to programming and demonstrates in detail...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms, SEA 2016, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in June 2016.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Computer Science Symposium in Russia, CSR 2016, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in June 2016.

The 28 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 submissions. In addition the book contains 4 invited lectures. The scope of the proposed topics is quite broad and covers a wide range of areas such as: include, but are not limited to: algorithms and data structures; combinatorial optimization; constraint solving; computational complexity; cryptography; combinatorics in computer...

This comprehensive and stimulating introduction to Matlab, a computer language now widely used for technical computing, is based on an introductory course held at Qian Weichang College, Shanghai University, in the fall of 2014.

Teaching and learning a substantial programming language aren't always straightforward tasks. Accordingly, this textbook is not meant to cover the whole range of this high-performance technical programming environment, but to motivate first- and second-year undergraduate students in mathematics and computer science to learn Matlab by studying representative...
