{"product_id":"algorithms-9789355325525","title":"Algorithms","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis textbook explains the fundamentals of algorithms in a storyline that makes the text enjoyable and easy to digest. The emphasis is mostly placed on understanding the crisp mathematical idea behind each algorithm in a manner that is intuitive and rigorous without being unduly formal. An accessible treatment of linear programming introduces students to one of the greatest achievements in algorithms. A chapter on the Quantum Algorithm for factoring has also been added that provides a unique peephole into this exciting topic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePedagogical features, such as the use of the three series of separate boxes have been introduced in the book to strengthen its narrative. These pieces provide historical context, a description of how the algorithms are used in practice, and excursions for the mathematically sophisticated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSalient Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.

He is currently a Professor with the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of California at San Diego, San Diego, CA, USA. His current research interest includes algorithmic statistics, with a focus on unsupervised and minimally supervised learning. Dr. Dasgupta was a Program Co-Chair of the Conference on Learning Theory in 2009 and of the International Conference on Machine Learning in 2013.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristos Papadimitriou was born and raised in Athens, Greece, and studied in Athens and at Princeton. He has taught Computer Science at Harvard, MIT, Stanford, and, since 1996, at Berkeley, where he is the C. Lester Hogan Professor of Computer Science. In his research he uses mathematics to understand the power and limitations of computers. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the National Academy of Engineering. He has written several of the standard textbooks in algorithms and computation, and three novels: \"Turing,\" \"Logicomix\" (with Apostolos Doxiadis, art by Alecos Papadatos and Annie di Donna), and \"Independence\" (2017).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 0: Prologue\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Algorithms with Numbers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRandomized Algorithms: A Virtual Chapter\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Divide-And-Conquer Algorithms\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Decompositions of Graphs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Paths in Graphs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Greedy Algorithms\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Dynamic Programming\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Linear Programming and Reductions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: NP-Complete Problems\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Coping With NP-Completeness\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 10: Quantum Algorithms\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistorical Notes \u0026amp; Further Reading\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIndex\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McGraw Hill Education","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50506334994502,"sku":"9789355325525","price":668.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/2797\/1142\/files\/81RbvaR4WFL._SY425.jpg?v=1790327277","url":"https:\/\/cb-india.com\/products\/algorithms-9789355325525","provider":"Computer Bookshop (India) Pvt Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
