You'll get this from the programming interview books, too, but I found this outstanding: Algorithm design canvas Write code on a whiteboard or paper, not a computer.

This paper reports on an optimum dynamic progxamming (DP) based time-normalization algorithm for spoken word recognition. First, a general principle of time-normalization is given using time-warping ...

We present a simulation-based algorithm called "Simulated Annealing Multiplicative Weights" (SAMW) for solving large finite-horizon stochastic dynamic programming problems. At each iteration of the ...
