This slide explains the Knapsack problem which is based on Dynamic Programming

2. Dynamic Programming
It is a multistage optimizing decision
making problem closely related to “divide
& conquer” technique.
It solves the sub-problem only once &
stores the result in a table instead of
solving it recursively.

3. 0/1 Knapsack Problem
 Given a set of n items and a knapsack having
capacity w, each item has weight wi and
value vi.
 The problem is to pack the knapsack in such
a way so that maximum total value is
achieved and the total weight should not be
more than the fixed weight.
 The problem is called 0/1 knapsack because
the items are either accepted or rejected.

4. Algorithm
 Loop, for w←0 to W(total capacity)
Set Kp[0,w] ←0.
 Loop, for i ←1 to n(set of items)
Set Kp[i,0] ←0.
 Check whether K is a part of solution or not-
if (wi<=w)(can be part of the solution)
if (vi+kp[i-1,w-wi])>Kp(i-1,w)
Set kp[i,w] ←vi
+kp[i-1,w-wi]
Else
Set Kp[i,w] ←Kp[i-1,w]
 Exit

13. Now we have computed the maximum
possible values that can be taken in a
knapsack i.e Kp[n,W]
In order to select items that can take part
in making this maximum value let
i=n,k=W.

14. Algorithm
 Set i←n
set k←W
 Loop to check K is a part of knapsack
while (i>0 and k>0)
if Kp[i,k]≠Kp[i-1,k] then
mark the ith item in knapsack
set i ←i-1
set k ←k-wi
Else
set i ←i-1
 Exit

15. i=3,k=3,vi=4,wi=3,Kp[i,k]=5,Kp[i-1,k]=5
i←i-1

16. i=2,k=3,vi=3,wi=2,Kp[i,k]=5,Kp[i-1,k]=2
Set k←k-wi=1
Set i←i-1
i/w 0 1 2 3

17. i=1,k=1,vi=2,wi=1,Kp[i,k]=2,Kp[i-1,k]=0
Set k←k-wi=0
Set i←i-1

18. The optimal knapsack contains
S= {1,2}
wi= {1,2}={3} <= W
vi= {2,3}= {5}» Optimum Value
