Can algorithm construction principles be implemented as algorithms?

Posted: 26 May 2021 05:42 AM PDT

Can algorithm construction principles be implemented as algorithms? For example:

We can apply dynamic programming to some problems, and get algorithms that solve the problems. Is it possible to implement an algorithm that takes in such problems, applies dynamic programming, and output algorithms that solve the problems?
We can apply maximum likelihood to problems for estimating parameters in probability distributions, and get algorithms (called estimators) that estimate the parameters from samples.
Is it possible to implement an algorithm that takes in such estimation problems, applies maximum likelihood, and output estimators? (Is there a R package that provides a function for that?)

Thanks.

I'm trying to learn a little bit more about dynamic programming. I found this pdf and I'm working through the first example. I understand(at least I think I do) how they generate the matrix but I'm not getting the "How can we now find the sequence" section. It says to look at the cells above and to the right to apply case 1. Looking above is the i - 1 part. But wouldn't looking right be j + 1?

Good schools for computer science

Can anyone recommend good, or decent, schools for computer science that also do not demand top grades, or are those two things mutually exclusive?
