Introduction to Algorithms and Approximation

Coverage of the fundamentals of algorithm analysis including, convergence, stability, mathematics for algorithm analysis, data structures, probability, and introductory statistics. Discrete optimization and algorithms employing stochastic guessing are investigated. Additionally, students will learn about approximation methods including Fourier series and wavelets.
