Trainyard is NP-hard
Recently, due to the widespread diffusion of smart-phones, mobile puzzle games have experienced a huge increase in their popularity. A successful puzzle has to be both captivating and challenging, and it has been suggested that this features are somehow related to their computational complexity [5]. Indeed, many puzzle games – such as Mah-Jongg, Sokoban, Candy Crush, and 2048, to name a few – a...
متن کاملProjection Onto The k-Cosparse Set is NP-Hard
We investigate the computational complexity of a problem arising in the context of sparse optimization, namely, the projection onto the set of k-cosparse vectors w.r.t. some given matrix Ω. We show that this projection problem is (strongly) NP-hard, even in the special cases where the matrix Ω contains only ternary or bipolar coefficients. Interestingly, this is in stark contrast to the project...
متن کاملThe Planar k-Means Problem is NP-Hard
In the k-means problem, we are given a finite set S of points in Rm, and integer k ≥ 1, and we want to find k points (centers) so as to minimize the sum of the square of the Euclidean distance of each point in S to its nearest center. We show that this well-known problem is NP-hard even for instances in the plane, answering an open question posed by Dasgupta [7].
متن کاملCandy Crush is NP-hard
We prove that playing Candy Crush to achieve a given score in a fixed number of swaps is NP-hard.
متن کاملProtein design is NP-hard.
Biologists working in the area of computational protein design have never doubted the seriousness of the algorithmic challenges that face them in attempting in silico sequence selection. It turns out that in the language of the computer science community, this discrete optimization problem is NP-hard. The purpose of this paper is to explain the context of this observation, to provide a simple i...
