algorithm - What does O (log n) mean exactly? - Stack Overflow
A common algorithm with O (log n) time complexity is Binary Search whose recursive relation is T (n/2) + O (1) i.e. at every subsequent level of the tree you divide problem into half and do constant amount of additional work.

Fuzzy search algorithm (approximate string matching algorithm)
The only way I can think of implementing it as a search algorithm is to perform a linear search and executing the string metric algorithm for each string and returning the strings with scores above a certain threshold.

jwt - RS256 vs HS256: What's the difference? - Stack Overflow
Both choices refer to what algorithm the identity provider uses to sign the JWT. Signing is a cryptographic operation that generates a "signature" (part of the JWT) that the recipient of the token can validate to ensure that the token has not been tampered with. RS256 (RSA Signature with SHA-256) is an asymmetric algorithm, and it uses a public/private key pair: the identity provider has a ...

algorithm - Peak signal detection in realtime timeseries data - Stack ...
Robust peak detection algorithm (using z-scores) I came up with an algorithm that works very well for these types of datasets. It is based on the principle of dispersion: if a new datapoint is a given x number of standard deviations away from a moving mean, the algorithm gives a signal. The algorithm is very robust because it constructs a separate moving mean and deviation, such that previous ...

What are some algorithms for comparing how similar two strings are?
What you're looking for are called String Metric algorithms. There a significant number of them, many with similar characteristics. Among the more popular: Levenshtein Distance : The minimum number of single-character edits required to change one word into the other. Strings do not have to be the same length Hamming Distance : The number of characters that are different in two equal length ...

What is the fastest substring search algorithm? - Stack Overflow
Each search algorithm comes in several variations that can make significant differences to its performance, as, for example, this paper illustrates. Benchmark your service to categorize the areas where additional search strategies are needed or to more effectively tune your selector function.
