Pseudopolynomial time

2026-10-25  0 By others on same topic  0 Discussions Create my own version
A time complexity polynomial in numerical input values, which need not be polynomial in their binary encoding lengths. For example, an O(nW) knapsack algorithm depends on the capacity W, while its input representation needs only O(log(W+1)) bits for that capacity.
