Smawk Algorithm Using Recursion

The SMAWK algorithm is an efficient method for finding row minima in totally monotone matrices, a specific type of matrix where entries decrease or stay constant along each row and column. Developed for optimizing complex search operations, this algorithm leverages a unique recursive approach, reducing computation time to O(m+n) for an m×n matrix, making it ideal for applications in computational geometry, dynamic programming, and machine learning. With SMAWK, developers gain a powerful tool for solving matrix-based problems more effectively, significantly improving the performance of algorithms that depend on finding minimum values in large, structured datasets
