Kruskal's Algorithm is a minimum-spanning-tree algorithm which finds a minimal spanning tree for a connected weighted graph. It's a greedy algorithm. It uses UnionFind (aka Disjoint Set). Summary: Try ...

Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) algorithms are used to find a subset of edges in a weighted graph that connects all vertices with the minimum total edge weight while avoiding cycles. Two of the most ...

Abstract: Tiny motes running on wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are equipped with limited batteries. Thus, design and implementation of energy-efficient algorithms on WSNs is vital. Problem of finding ...

Based on the graphic theory and improved genetic algorithm,an improved genetic algorithm to search the minimum spanning trees is given . The algorithm uses binary code to represent the problem of ...

Abstract: The Minimal Spanning Tree (MST) is a well-known combinatorial optimization problem that exists in various real-world applications, such as scheduling and pricing of flights, planning truck ...

In this paper we present an axiomatic characterization of the weighted Shapley value of the optimistic TU game associated with a minimum cost spanning tree problem. This characterization is based on ...

It is shown how most methods of measuring inflation and growth have an underlying spanning tree. The spanning tree whose resulting inflation (growth) estimates are least sensitive to the choice of ...
