4 CS 4407, Algorithms Analyzing Algorithms Assumptions generic one-processor, random access machine running time (others: memory, communication, etc) Worst Case Running Time: the longest time for any input of size n upper bound on the running time for any input in some cases like searching, this is close Average Case Behavior: the expected performance averaged over all possible inputs it is generally better than worst case behavior sometimes it s roughly as bad as worst case
5 CS 4407, Algorithms Notation: Growth Functions Theta f(n) = θ(g(n)) f(n) c g(n) BigOh f(n) = O(g(n)) f(n) c g(n) Omega f(n) = Ω(g(n)) f(n) c g(n) Little Oh f(n) = o(g(n)) f(n) << c g(n) Little Omega f(n) = ω(g(n)) f(n) >> c g(n)
6 Q-notation For a given function g(n), we denote by Q(g(n)) the set of functions Q(g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c 1, c 2 and n 0 such that 0 c 1 g(n) f(n) c 2 g(n), for all n n 0 } We say g(n) is an asymptotically tight bound for f(n) CS 4407, Algorithms
7 O-notation For a given function g(n), we denote by O(g(n)) the set of functions O(g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c and n 0 such that 0 f(n) cg(n), for all n n 0 } We say g(n) is an asymptotic upper bound for f(n) CS 4407, Algorithms
8 W-notation For a given function g(n), we denote by W(g(n)) the set of functions W(g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c and n 0 such that 0 cg(n) f(n) for all n n 0 } We say g(n) is an asymptotic lower bound for f(n) CS 4407, Algorithms
9 CS 4407, Algorithms Relations Between Q, W, O For any two functions g(n) and f(n), f(n) = Q(g(n)) if and only if f(n) = O(g(n)) and f(n) = W(g(n)). i.e., Q(g(n)) = O(g(n)) W(g(n)).

11 CS 4407, Algorithms Iterative Algorithm Running Time T(n), or the running time of a particular algorithm on input of size n, is taken to be the number of times the instructions in the algorithm are executed. Pseudo code algorithm illustrates the calculation of the mean (average) of a set of n numbers: 1. n = read input from user 2. sum = 0 3. i = 0 4. while i < n 5. number = read input from user 6. sum = sum + number 7. i = i mean = sum / n The computing time for this algorithm in terms on input size n is: T(n) = 4n + 5. Statement Number of times executed n+1 5 n 6 n 7 n 8 1

26 Initial Conditions km key n km The sublist is the entire original list. If the key is contained in the original list, then the key is contained in the sublist. CS 4407, Algorithms
27 CS 4407, Algorithms Ending Algorithm Exit key km If the key is contained in the original list, then the key is contained in the sublist. Sublist contains one element. Exit If the key is contained in the original list, then the key is at this location.
28 If key not in original list If the key is contained in the original list, then the key is contained in the sublist. Loop invariant true, even if the key is not in the list. key If the key is contained in the original list, then the key is at this location. Conclusion still solves the problem. Simply check this one location for the key. CS 4407, Algorithms

32 Divide-and-Conquer Analysis The analysis of divide and conquer algorithms require us to solve a recurrence. Recurrences are a major tool for analysis of algorithms CS 4407, Algorithms

36 CS 4407, Algorithms Recursion-tree method A recursion tree models the costs (time) of a recursive execution of an algorithm. The recursion tree method is good for generating guesses for the substitution method. The recursion-tree method can be unreliable, just like any method that uses ellipses ( ). The recursion-tree method promotes intuition, however.

46 CS 4407, Algorithms Solution: geometric series x x x for x < x x x x x n n for x 1
47 CS 4407, Algorithms The master method The master method applies to recurrences of the form T(n) = a T(n/b) + f (n), where a 1, b > 1, and f is asymptotically positive.
48 CS 4407, Algorithms Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) T (1) #leaves = a h = a log bn = n log ba n log ba T (1)
49 Three common cases Compare f (n) with n log ba : 1. f (n) = O(n log ba e ) for some constant e > 0. f (n) grows polynomially slower than n log ba (by an n e factor). Solution: T(n) = Q(n log ba ). # leaves in recursion tree CS 4407, Algorithms
50 CS 4407, Algorithms Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) T (1) CASE 1: The weight increases n log ba geometrically from the root to the T (1) leaves. The leaves hold a constant fraction of the total weight. Q(n log ba )
51 Three common cases Compare f (n) with n log ba : 2. f (n) = Q(n log ba lg k n) for some constant k 0. f (n) and n log ba grow at similar rates. Solution: T(n) = Q(n log ba lg k+1 n). CS 4407, Algorithms
52 CS 4407, Algorithms Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) T (1) CASE 2: (k = 0) The weight is approximately the same on each of the log b n levels. n log ba T (1) Q(n log ba lg n)
53 Three common cases (cont.) Compare f (n) with n log ba : 3. f (n) = W(n log ba + e ) for some constant e > 0. f (n) grows polynomially faster than n log ba (by an n e factor), and f (n) satisfies the regularity condition that a f (n/b) c f (n) for some constant c < 1. Solution: T(n) = Q( f (n) ). CS 4407, Algorithms
54 CS 4407, Algorithms Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) T (1) CASE 3: The weight decreases geometrically from the root to the leaves. The root holds a constant fraction of the total weight. n log ba T (1) Q( f (n))
55 CS 4407, Algorithms Examples Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n. CASE 1: f (n) = O(n 2 e ) for e = 1. T(n) = Q(n 2 ). Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 2 a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n 2. CASE 2: f (n) = Q(n 2 lg 0 n), that is, k = 0. T(n) = Q(n 2 lg n).
56 CS 4407, Algorithms Examples Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 3 a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n 3. CASE 3: f (n) = W(n 2 + e ) for e = 1 and 4(cn/2) 3 cn 3 (reg. cond.) for c = 1/2. T(n) = Q(n 3 ). Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 2 /lg n a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n 2 /lg n. Master method does not apply. In particular, for every constant e > 0, we have n e w(lg n).
