如果你的数组是排序的，这应该运行在O(n)，其中n是min(a.length, b.length)

function intersect_1d( a, b ){
    var out=[], ai=0, bi=0, acurr, bcurr, last=Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER;
    while( ( acurr=a[ai] )!==undefined && ( bcurr=b[bi] )!==undefined ){
        if( acurr < bcurr){
            if( last===acurr ){
                out.push( acurr );
            }
            last=acurr;
            ai++;
        }
        else if( acurr > bcurr){
            if( last===bcurr ){
                out.push( bcurr );
            }
            last=bcurr;
            bi++;
        }
        else {
            out.push( acurr );
            last=acurr;
            ai++;
            bi++;
        }
    }
    return out;
}

下面是underscore.js的实现:

_.intersection = function(array) {
  if (array == null) return [];
  var result = [];
  var argsLength = arguments.length;
  for (var i = 0, length = array.length; i < length; i++) {
    var item = array[i];
    if (_.contains(result, item)) continue;
    for (var j = 1; j < argsLength; j++) {
      if (!_.contains(arguments[j], item)) break;
    }
    if (j === argsLength) result.push(item);
  }
  return result;
};

与效率无关，但很容易理解，这里有一个集合的并和交的例子，它处理集合的数组和集合的集合。

        }
        intI++;

        {

// return whether an element exists in an array

            blnAbort = true;

// return the union of all sets

            if (find(arrResult, varElement_a) === false)
            {
                // add it
                arrResult[intI] = varElement_a;
                intI++;

// return the intersection of all sets

    // for each set

            var blnCandidate = true;

            // for each set
            processArray(arr_a, function(arrSet_a)
            {

var strOutput = ''

var arrSet1 = [1,2,3];

alert(strOutput);

// return the intersection of 3 sets

alert(strOutput);

// of 3 sets of sets, which set is the intersecting set

alert(strOutput);

下面是一个使用可选的比较函数处理多个数组的简单实现:

函数交叉(数组，compareFn = (val1, val2) => (val1 == val2)) { 如果数组。长度< 2)返回数组[0]?［］ Const array1 = arrays[0] const array2 =交集(arrays.slice(1)， compareFn) array1返回。过滤器(val1 =>数组2。if (val2 => compareFn(val1, val2))) ｝ console.log(十字路口([[1,2,3],[2、3、4、5]])) console.log(十字路口([[{id: 1}, {id: 2}], [{id: 1}, {id: 3}]], (val1, val2) => val1。Id === val2.id)

function intersectionOfArrays(arr1, arr2) {
    return arr1.filter((element) => arr2.indexOf(element) !== -1).filter((element, pos, self) => self.indexOf(element) == pos);
}

基于Anon的出色回答，这个函数返回两个或多个数组的交集。

function arrayIntersect(arrayOfArrays)
{        
    var arrayCopy = arrayOfArrays.slice(),
        baseArray = arrayCopy.pop();

    return baseArray.filter(function(item) {
        return arrayCopy.every(function(itemList) {
            return itemList.indexOf(item) !== -1;
        });
    });
}
