这里是java O(nlogn)的实现

        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

这是一个O(n²)的Java实现。我只是没有使用二分搜索来找到S中最小的元素，它是>= than x，我只是使用了一个for循环。使用二分搜索将使复杂度为O(n logn)

public static void olis(int[] seq){

    int[] memo = new int[seq.length];

    memo[0] = seq[0];
    int pos = 0;

    for (int i=1; i<seq.length; i++){

        int x = seq[i];

            if (memo[pos] < x){ 
                pos++;
                memo[pos] = x;
            } else {

                for(int j=0; j<=pos; j++){
                    if (memo[j] >= x){
                        memo[j] = x;
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
            //just to print every step
            System.out.println(Arrays.toString(memo));
    }

    //the final array with the LIS
    System.out.println(Arrays.toString(memo));
    System.out.println("The length of lis is " + (pos + 1));

}

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);

{
    std::vector<int> seq{0, 8, 2, 3, 7, 9};

}

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!

求最长递增子序列的O(NLog(N))方法 让我们维护一个数组，其中第i个元素是一个大小为i的子序列可以结束的最小的数字。

我故意避免进一步的细节，因为投票最多的答案已经解释了它，但这种技术最终导致使用set数据结构的整洁实现(至少在c++中)。

下面是c++中的实现(假设需要严格增加最长子序列的大小)

using namespace std;
typedef long long ll;

int main()
{
  ll n;
  cin >> n;
  ll arr[n];
  set<ll> S;

  for(ll i=0; i<n; i++)
  {
    cin >> arr[i];
    auto it = S.lower_bound(arr[i]);
    if(it != S.end())
      S.erase(it);
    S.insert(arr[i]);
  }

  cout << S.size() << endl; // Size of the set is the required answer

  return 0;
