PPT-1 COMP 382: Reasoning about algorithms

Unit 9 Undecidability Slides adapted from Amos Israelis Limits to computation There are problems for which there cannot be an algorithm provably Undecidable problems There are problems for which polynomialtime algorithms are unlikely to exist.

Opkins. CECS 100. Fall 2011. Problem Solving. Logic. – The science of correct reasoning.. Reasoning. – The drawing of inferences or conclusions from known or assumed facts.. When solving a problem, one must understand the question, gather all pertinent facts, analyze the problem i.e. compare with previous problems (note similarities and differences), perhaps use pictures or formulas to solve the problem.. What we learned last class…. We are not good at recognizing/dealing with randomness. Our “random” coin flip results weren’t streaky enough.. If B/G results behave like independent coin flips, we know how many families to EXPECT with 0,1,2,3,4 girls.. 10 Bat Algorithms Xin-She Yang, Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms, Elsevier, 2014 The bat algorithm (BA) is a bio-inspired algorithm developed by Xin-She Yang in 2010. 10.1 Echolocation of Bats EE 194/Comp 150: Modeling, simulating and optimizing biological systems Spring 2018 Tufts University Instructor: Joel Grodstein joel.grodstein@tufts.edu Lecture 2: Biology backgrounder Biology backgrounder PTACAQ2 5A66BC255/D5/1EFGFAC552//23-FD3--67H3//O0555//0B548328896/88K250578K0/-5/x00009KK2//3785450/-5/54832D73/85-52/D6322D-2D2364/B/A552/32-A--//8/8548323650/-5/C/F5E8/52254/36/0365Ex10056654B20555/
