Optimization algorithms and methods | Statistical algorithms | Optimal decisions
The odds algorithm (or Bruss algorithm) is a mathematical method for computing optimal strategies for a class of problems that belong to the domain of optimal stopping problems. Their solution follows from the odds strategy, and the importance of the odds strategy lies in its optimality, as explained below. The odds algorithm applies to a class of problems called last-success problems. Formally, the objective in these problems is to maximize the probability of identifying in a sequence of sequentially observed independent events the last event satisfying a specific criterion (a "specific event"). This identification must be done at the time of observation. No revisiting of preceding observations is permitted. Usually, a specific event is defined by the decision maker as an event that is of true interest in the view of "stopping" to take a well-defined action. Such problems are encountered in several situations. (Wikipedia).

Parity games have witnessed several new quasi-polynomial algorithms since the breakthrough result of Calude et al. (2017). The central combinatorial object underlying these approaches is a universal tree, as identified by Czerwi´nski et al. (2019). By providing a quasi-polynomial lower bou
