CS 580 Randomized Algorithms and Probabilistic Analysis
Probabilistic tools used in the design and analysis of modern algorithms and data structures. Topics include: review discrete random, occupancy problems, tail bounds, Markov chains, the probabilistic method, martingales, Monte Carlo methods. The course explores a variety of CS applications. Also offered for undergraduate-level credit as CS 480 and may be taken only once for credit.
