MertonRelated: Merton used it to derive optimal consumption and portfolio decisions across an investor’s lifetime.Viterbi algorithmNarrower topic: Viterbi reuses the best partial path ending in each state instead of enumerating every complete path.Needleman–Wunsch algorithmNarrower topic: The algorithm fills a score matrix by reusing optimal alignments of shorter sequence prefixes.Sequence analysis (bioinformatics)Related: It makes optimal pairwise sequence alignment practical by reusing scores for shorter sequence segments.
