| | In this post, I want to tell you about what I think might be the world's simplest interesting algorithm. The vertex cover problem. Given a graph $latex {G = (V, E)}&fg=000000$, we want to find the smallest set of vertices $latex {S \subseteq V}&fg=000000$ such that every edge $latex {e \in E}&fg=000000$ is covered by...

| | The function $latex f(x) = x \log x$ occurs in various places across math/statistics/machine learning (e.g. in the definition of entropy), and I thought I'd put a list of properties of the function here that I've found useful. Here is a plot of the function: $latex f$ is defined on $latex (0, \infty)$. The only...

| | The algorithm for probabilistically embedding metric spaces into trees has numerous theoretical applications. It is a key tool in the design of many approximation algorithms and online algorithms. Today we will illustrate the usefulness of these trees in designing an algorithm for the online Steiner tree problem. 1. Online Steiner Tree Let $latex {G=(V,E)}&fg=000000$ be...
