@atul.. Sorry, but i don't agree with both of ur posts...
First of all, the complexity won't be log(m*n) for heapifying.. log(m*n) is valid in case of a heap represented in the form of a binary tree.. But, i have have repeatedly stressing in my previous posts that the submatrix heap is not a binary tree heap but rather a graph or say a binary tree (not really tree) where its subtrees share some nodes... Disagree with the following comment.. /** it seem that the sub-matrix need to be heapifyed for A[i][j] is A[i+1][j] to A[row][col] there is no need to include A[i][j+1] to A[i][col] for A[i][j] as you have mentioned above. **/ Also, i see that you have not properly heapified the submatrices correctly in the example that u have provided in the previous post.. Plz go thru my last post and see if ur doubts can get clarified.. --------------------------------------------- Really sorry, in case previously given details by me were inadequate... Was posting in a hurry :)... -------------------------------------------- Hope, now all doubts would be cleared... ----------------------------------------------- On Jan 11, 9:55 pm, Lucifer <sourabhd2...@gmail.com> wrote: > @Ankur.. > > I will try to explain the approach with an example.. > > Say the given matrix (sorted row wise and column wise) is as follows: > > a1 a2 a3 a4 > > b1 b2 b3 b4 > > c1 c2 c3 c4 > > d1 d2 d3 d4 > > Now, we want to sort the 2D array such that when all the rows are > aligned sequentially it should result in a sorted sequence.. > i.e. > > F1 F2 F3 F4 > ............. > ................ > F13 F14 F15 F16 > > such that F1 <= F2 <=....<= F16.. > > Now, let take each row at a time and ensure that that row contains all > the elements as expected in the output matrix.. > > Row - 1 : > M[0][0] = a1, which is at the correct place.. hence we won't touch > it.. > > Now our task is to pick the second smallest no. in the matrix and > place it at M[0][1].. > Currently, M[0][1] is the second smallest in Row-1, but we are not > sure whether its the second smallest in the entire matrix.. > Hence, only way we can check that is to look in the submatrix (M[1][0] > -- M[3][3]) > > Now, as we know that in the submatrix enclosed within (M[1][0] -- M[3] > [3]) the smallest element present in this submatrix is positioned at > M[1][0], therefore we will check M[0][1] against M[1][0].. > > If M[0][1] <= M[1][0], > that means M[0][1] has the second smallest element in the entire > matrix.. > else > M[1][0] is the second smallest element in the entire matrix and > we will swap M[1][0] with M[0][1].. > > Now, there are few things we need ensure if we end up swapping the > values: > 1) After swapping M[0][1]'s new value will be smaller than its > original value, therefore the following is still valid: > M[0][1] <= M[0][2] <=M[0][3] > and also as M[0][1]'s new value was previously placed below > M[0][0], hence it is >= M[0][0] .. > that means after swapping Row-1 still mains the sorted > order... > 2) Old value of M[1][0] <= M[1][1].. > Hence, the new value of M[0][1] is still <= M[1][1].. > therefore the sorted order of Column-2 is still valid... > 3) Now, new value of M[1][0] >= M[0][0] as an impact of old value of > M[0][1] >= M[0][0] > Also, new value of M[1][0] <= M[1][1] as an impact of > old value of M[0][1] <= M[1][1].. > [ point 3 can be proved by the using the explanation from > points 1 &2.. > 4) Now the only thing that we need to ensure is that Column - 1 is in > sorted order i.e M[1][0] (new) <= M[2][0] (old).. > If the above is true that means the submatrix enclosed within > (M[1][0] -- M[3][3]) is stabalized and has the row/column wise sorted > order property in place... > What if its not ?? then we need to readjust the submatrix ... > Once we do that we are done for the current iteration.. > [ we will talk abt stabalization in sometime.. lets take it for > granted right now..] > > Now, we will follow the same approach for M[0][2], so that it holds > the third largest element.. > > Once we are done with Row -1.. we have the first 4 smallest elements > in place and we move on to the next row and follow a same process.. > For ex- > Row -2 > M[1][0] is already in place and has the 5th largest element.. > Hence, lets look at M[1][1]..
