我有一组整数。我想用动态规划的方法求出这个集合的最长递增子序列。


当前回答

好的,我先描述最简单的解也就是O(N²)N是集合的大小。还有一个O(N log N)解,我也会讲到。在高效算法一节中可以找到。

我假设数组的下标从0到N - 1。因此,让我们定义DP[i]为LIS(最长递增子序列)的长度,它结束于索引为i的元素。为了计算DP[i],我们查看所有索引j < i,并检查DP[j] + 1 > DP[i]和array[j] < array[i](我们希望它是递增的)。如果这是真的,我们可以更新DP[i]的当前最优值。要找到数组的全局最优值,您可以从DP[0…]N - 1]。

int maxLength = 1, bestEnd = 0;
DP[0] = 1;
prev[0] = -1;

for (int i = 1; i < N; i++)
{
   DP[i] = 1;
   prev[i] = -1;

   for (int j = i - 1; j >= 0; j--)
      if (DP[j] + 1 > DP[i] && array[j] < array[i])
      {
         DP[i] = DP[j] + 1;
         prev[i] = j;
      }

   if (DP[i] > maxLength)
   {
      bestEnd = i;
      maxLength = DP[i];
   }
}

我使用数组prev是为了以后能够找到实际的序列,而不仅仅是它的长度。只需在循环中使用prev[bestEnd]从bestEnd递归返回。-1值是停止的标志。


好了,现在来看更有效的O(nlog N)解:

设S[pos]定义为长度为pos的递增序列结束的最小整数。现在遍历输入集的每个整数X,并执行以下操作:

如果X >是S中的最后一个元素,那么将X附加到S的末尾,这本质上意味着我们已经找到了一个新的最大的LIS。 否则,找到S中最小的元素,即>= X,并将其改为X。 因为S在任何时候都是排序的,所以可以使用log(N)的二分搜索来找到元素。

总运行时间- N个整数,并对每个整数进行二进制搜索- N * log(N) = O(N log N)

现在我们来做一个真实的例子:

整数的集合: 2 6 3 4 1 2 9 5 8

步骤:

0. S = {} - Initialize S to the empty set
1. S = {2} - New largest LIS
2. S = {2, 6} - New largest LIS
3. S = {2, 3} - Changed 6 to 3
4. S = {2, 3, 4} - New largest LIS
5. S = {1, 3, 4} - Changed 2 to 1
6. S = {1, 2, 4} - Changed 3 to 2
7. S = {1, 2, 4, 9} - New largest LIS
8. S = {1, 2, 4, 5} - Changed 9 to 5
9. S = {1, 2, 4, 5, 8} - New largest LIS

所以LIS的长度是5 (S的大小)。

为了重建实际的LIS,我们将再次使用父数组。 设parent[i]是LIS中索引为i的元素的前身,该元素以索引为i的元素结束。

为了使事情更简单,我们可以在数组S中保留不是实际的整数,而是它们在集合中的下标(位置)。我们不保留{1,2,4,5,8},而是保留{4,5,3,7,8}。

即输入[4]= 1,输入[5]= 2,输入[3]= 4,输入[7]= 5,输入[8]= 8。

如果我们正确地更新父数组,实际的LIS是:

input[S[lastElementOfS]], 
input[parent[S[lastElementOfS]]],
input[parent[parent[S[lastElementOfS]]]],
........................................

现在重要的是,我们如何更新父数组?有两种选择:

如果X >是S中的最后一个元素,那么parent[indexX] = indexLastElement。这意味着最新元素的父元素是最后一个元素。我们只是在S的末尾加上X。 否则,找到S中最小元素的索引>= than X,并将其更改为X。这里parent[indexX] = S[index - 1]。

其他回答

下面是从动态规划的角度评估问题的三个步骤:

递归定义:maxLength(i) == 1 + maxLength(j) where 0 < j < i and array[i] > array[j] 递归参数边界:可能有0到i - 1个子序列作为参数传递 求值顺序:由于是递增子序列,所以要从0求值到n

如果我们以序列{0,8,2,3,7,9}为例,at index:

我们会得到子序列{0}作为基本情况 [1]有一个新的子序列{0,8} [2]试图评估两个新的序列{0,8,2}和{0,2}通过添加元素在索引2到现有的子序列-只有一个是有效的,所以添加第三个可能的序列{0,2}只到参数列表 ...

下面是c++ 11的工作代码:

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

int getLongestIncSub(const std::vector<int> &sequence, size_t index, std::vector<std::vector<int>> &sub) {
    if(index == 0) {
        sub.push_back(std::vector<int>{sequence[0]});
        return 1;
    }

    size_t longestSubSeq = getLongestIncSub(sequence, index - 1, sub);
    std::vector<std::vector<int>> tmpSubSeq;
    for(std::vector<int> &subSeq : sub) {
        if(subSeq[subSeq.size() - 1] < sequence[index]) {
            std::vector<int> newSeq(subSeq);
            newSeq.push_back(sequence[index]);
            longestSubSeq = std::max(longestSubSeq, newSeq.size());
            tmpSubSeq.push_back(newSeq);
        }
    }
    std::copy(tmpSubSeq.begin(), tmpSubSeq.end(),
              std::back_insert_iterator<std::vector<std::vector<int>>>(sub));

    return longestSubSeq;
}

int getLongestIncSub(const std::vector<int> &sequence) {
    std::vector<std::vector<int>> sub;
    return getLongestIncSub(sequence, sequence.size() - 1, sub);
}

int main()
{
    std::vector<int> seq{0, 8, 2, 3, 7, 9};
    std::cout << getLongestIncSub(seq);
    return 0;
}

这里是java O(nlogn)的实现

import java.util.Scanner;

public class LongestIncreasingSeq {


    private static int binarySearch(int table[],int a,int len){

        int end = len-1;
        int beg = 0;
        int mid = 0;
        int result = -1;
        while(beg <= end){
            mid = (end + beg) / 2;
            if(table[mid] < a){
                beg=mid+1;
                result = mid;
            }else if(table[mid] == a){
                return len-1;
            }else{
                end = mid-1;
            }
        }
        return result;
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {        
        
//        int[] t = {1, 2, 5,9,16};
//        System.out.println(binarySearch(t , 9, 5));
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        int size = in.nextInt();//4;
        
        int A[] = new int[size];
        int table[] = new int[A.length]; 
        int k = 0;
        while(k<size){
            A[k++] = in.nextInt();
            if(k<size-1)
                in.nextLine();
        }        
        table[0] = A[0];
        int len = 1; 
        for (int i = 1; i < A.length; i++) {
            if(table[0] > A[i]){
                table[0] = A[i];
            }else if(table[len-1]<A[i]){
                table[len++]=A[i];
            }else{
                table[binarySearch(table, A[i],len)+1] = A[i];
            }            
        }
        System.out.println(len);
    }    
}

//可以使用TreeSet

下面是O(n^2)算法的Scala实现:

object Solve {
  def longestIncrSubseq[T](xs: List[T])(implicit ord: Ordering[T]) = {
    xs.foldLeft(List[(Int, List[T])]()) {
      (sofar, x) =>
        if (sofar.isEmpty) List((1, List(x)))
        else {
          val resIfEndsAtCurr = (sofar, xs).zipped map {
            (tp, y) =>
              val len = tp._1
              val seq = tp._2
              if (ord.lteq(y, x)) {
                (len + 1, x :: seq) // reversely recorded to avoid O(n)
              } else {
                (1, List(x))
              }
          }
          sofar :+ resIfEndsAtCurr.maxBy(_._1)
        }
    }.maxBy(_._1)._2.reverse
  }

  def main(args: Array[String]) = {
    println(longestIncrSubseq(List(
      0, 8, 4, 12, 2, 10, 6, 14, 1, 9, 5, 13, 3, 11, 7, 15)))
  }
}

Petar Minchev的解释帮助我理清了事情,但我很难解析所有内容,所以我做了一个带有过度描述性变量名和大量注释的Python实现。我做了一个简单的递归解,O(n²)解,和O(n log n)解。

我希望它能帮助理清算法!
