This course continues our data structures and algorithms specialization by focussing on the use of linear and integer programming formulations for solving algorithmic problems that seek optimal ...

Create divide and conquer, dynamic programming, and greedy algorithms. Understand intractable problems, P vs NP and the use of integer programming solvers to tackle some of these problems.

Dynamic programming (DP) algorithms have become indispensable in computational biology, addressing problems that range from sequence alignment and phylogenetic inference to RNA secondary structure ...
