Goal(s)
This course presents the complexity theory (lower bounds, complexity classes and reduction, NP classification) and presents the main techniques to design efficient algorithms: parallel, randomized and approximation algorithms, heuristics.
The course is coupled to a practical project on the programming of a multi-players game in C++.
Responsible(s)
Frederic WAGNER
Content(s)
1. Machine models, Problem Complexity. Heuristics (e.g. alpha-beta)
2. Complexity; lower bounds; reduction.
3. Complexity classes P, NP, NP-complete.
4. Approximation algorithms. APX classes.
5. Randomized Algorithms. [BRZ]PP classes.
6. Parallel Algorithms. [ RZ][AN]C classes.
7. Interactive algorithms and proofs (IP). Polynomial hierarchy.
Very good understanding of cost analysis for simple sequential algorithms (iterative / loops, recursive / divide and conquer).
Prerequisites: Algorithms and programming (1st year, 3MMALG2), elementary notions on graphs (3MMRO) and on computation models (3MMTL2).
Test
One individual written examination (2h)(E: coef 3 / 4). One programming work with report (P: coef 1 / 4).
