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

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!

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;
}

说到DP solution,我发现很奇怪的是没有人提到LIS可以简化为LCS。你所需要做的就是对原始序列的副本进行排序,删除所有重复的副本,然后对它们进行LCS。在伪代码中是:

def LIS(S):
    T = sort(S)
    T = removeDuplicates(T)
    return LCS(S, T)

以及用Go语言编写的完整实现。如果你不需要重构解,你就不需要维护整个n^2 DP矩阵。

func lcs(arr1 []int) int {
    arr2 := make([]int, len(arr1))
    for i, v := range arr1 {
        arr2[i] = v
    }
    sort.Ints(arr1)
    arr3 := []int{}
    prev := arr1[0] - 1
    for _, v := range arr1 {
        if v != prev {
            prev = v
            arr3 = append(arr3, v)
        }
    }

    n1, n2 := len(arr1), len(arr3)

    M := make([][]int, n2 + 1)
    e := make([]int, (n1 + 1) * (n2 + 1))
    for i := range M {
        M[i] = e[i * (n1 + 1):(i + 1) * (n1 + 1)]
    }

    for i := 1; i <= n2; i++ {
        for j := 1; j <= n1; j++ {
            if arr2[j - 1] == arr3[i - 1] {
                M[i][j] = M[i - 1][j - 1] + 1
            } else if M[i - 1][j] > M[i][j - 1] {
                M[i][j] = M[i - 1][j]
            } else {
                M[i][j] = M[i][j - 1]
            }
        }
    }

    return M[n2][n1]
}
