单词 | matroid |
释义 | matroidn. Mathematics. A mathematical entity consisting of a finite set E together with a collection ℐ of subsets of E such that (i) the empty set is a member of ℐ, (ii) any subset of a member of ℐ is also a member of ℐ, and (iii) if two subsets I1 and I2 are in ℐ, where the cardinality of I1 is less than that of I2, then there exists an element e that is in I2 but not I1 such that the union of I1 with {e} is also an element of ℐ.The definition of the collection of subsets generalizes the notion of mathematical independence in linear algebra and graph theory. A basic example of a matroid is E being the set of rows of a matrix, and each subset in ℐ consisting of a number of linearly independent rows.
