11List of combinatorics topics — This is a list of combinatorics topics.A few decades ago it might have been said that combinatorics is little more than a way to classify poorly understood problems, and some standard remedies. Great progress has been made since 1960.This page is …
12Outline of combinatorics — See also: Index of combinatorics articles The following outline is presented as an overview of and topical guide to combinatorics: Combinatorics – branch of mathematics concerning the study of finite or countable discrete structures. Contents 1… …
13Enumerative combinatorics — is an area of combinatorics that deals with the number of ways that certain patterns can be formed. Two examples of this type of problem are counting combinations and counting permutations. More generally, given an infinite collection of finite… …
14Brute-force search — In computer science, brute force search or exhaustive search, also known as generate and test, is a trivial but very general problem solving technique that consists of systematically enumerating all possible candidates for the solution and… …
15Snake-in-the-box — The snake in the box problem in graph theory and computer science deals with finding a certain kind of path along the edges of a hypercube. This path starts at one corner and travels along the edges to as many corners as it can reach. After it… …
16Computational complexity theory — is a branch of the theory of computation in theoretical computer science and mathematics that focuses on classifying computational problems according to their inherent difficulty, and relating those classes to each other. In this context, a… …
17Artificial intelligence — AI redirects here. For other uses, see Ai. For other uses, see Artificial intelligence (disambiguation). TOPIO, a humanoid robot, played table tennis at Tokyo International Robot Exhibition (IREX) 2009.[1] Artificial intelligence ( …
18Curse of dimensionality — The curse of dimensionality refers to various phenomena that arise when analyzing and organizing high dimensional spaces (often with hundreds or thousands of dimensions) that do not occur in low dimensional settings such as the physical space… …
19AI winter — See also and An AI Winter is a collapse in the perception of artificial intelligence research. The term was coined by analogy with the relentless spiral of a nuclear winter: a chain reaction of pessimism in the AI community, followed by pessimism …
20Action selection — is a way of characterizing the most basic problem of intelligent systems: what to do next. In artificial intelligence and computational cognitive science, the action selection problem is typically associated with intelligent agents and animats… …
