Branch-and-bound is a mathematical optimization technique used to solve integer and combinatorial problems by systematically exploring the solution space. It involves dividing the problem into smaller subproblems (branching) and calculating bounds to eliminate subproblems that cannot yield better solutions than the current best (bounding). This method efficiently narrows down the search for optimal solutions in complex optimization tasks.
congrats on reading the definition of branch-and-bound. now let's actually learn it.
