ok, can anybody indicate an algorithm that would verify if there exists a set of k independent vertices in a graph ? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Algorithm Geeks group. To post to this group,

[algogeeks] K minimum sums in two sorted arrays ?

2006-11-29 Thread Suranjit Adhikari
Problem Consider two sorted arrays of arbitary size, The aim is to find k minimum sums with the condition that there must be elements from both arrays in each sum. What is the best possible way to do this o(klogk) ? example input array1 = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7] array2= [3,4,7,9,15,17,25] find 3

I've found an implementation that uses whether bc is a 'right turn' from ab as its sole corvergence criterion (where a b and c are sites in neighboring regions). The code it uses is: if ((b.x-a.x)*(c.y-a.y) - (c.x-a.x)*(b.y-a.y) 0) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You

I think O(klogk) is possible. array1=A={a1,a2,...,},B=arrary2={b1,b2,..} think about the 2-d grid generated by A,B ( all points (ai,bj)). using a swap line x+y=c, swap these point until we have scaned k point. maintain a heap to tell which point will be the next point we will scan. Moreover, if

The problem is infact finding the lowest numbers of the combined arrays. For that you can use concept of merge algorithm of the merge sort. That will work out in only O(nlogn) time. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to
