'Bach's algorithm' suggests that the algorithm has been referred to in that way elsewhere (if this was not in a citable source, an explanation should be provided). Thus, a source or should be provided, no? I did a quick search and could not find reference to a Bach's algorithm except for in this Wikipedia article.

The article provindes two references to Bach's articles and one to an article that says "Bach presents an efficient algorithm for...". So, the latter can be considered as a source for the name of the article. Seaching "Bach's algorithm" and "Bach algorithm" on Scholar Google provides 25 and 118 results respectively, many of them referring to the algorithm of this article. Some other refer to a "BACH algorithm" in genomic studies, and some refer to a Dinkel–Bach or Dinkelbach algorithm. It is unclear whether BACH algorithm and Dinkel–Bach algorithms are related to the one of this article, but there are sufficiently many hits for being sure that the term "Bach's algorithm" is commonly used in some research communities.
