|
||||
## Basic idea
|
||||
|
||||
We will _ease in_ with our own algorithm to find the shortest path. We will
|
||||
start by thinking about the ways we can achieve that. If we didn't have the `*`
|
||||
cells, we could've easily run a BFS[^1] and be done with it. Maybe it is a good
|
||||
place to start, or isn't, there is only one way to find out though.
|
||||
|
||||
_How does the BFS work?_ We know the vertex where we start and we know the
|
||||
vertex we want to find the shortest path to. Given this knowledge we
|
||||
incrementally visit all of our neighbours and we do that over and over until the
|
||||
destination is found[^2]. Could we leverage this somehow?
|
||||
|
||||
## Naïve approach
|
||||
|
||||
Well, we could probably start with all vertices being _unreachable_ (having the
|
||||
highest possible price) and try to improve what we've gotten so far until there
|
||||
are no improvements. That sounds fine, we shall implement this. Since we are
|
||||
going on repeat, we will name this function `bf()` as in _brute-force_, cause it
|
||||
is trying to find it the hard way:
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
const static std::vector<vertex_t> DIRECTIONS =
|
||||
std::vector{std::make_pair(0, 1), std::make_pair(0, -1),
|
||||
std::make_pair(1, 0), std::make_pair(-1, 0)};
|
||||
|
||||
auto bf(const graph& g, const vertex_t& source, const vertex_t& destination)
|
||||
-> int {
|
||||
// ‹source› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(source));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹destination› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(destination));
|
||||
|
||||
// we need to initialize the distances
|
||||
std::vector<std::vector<int>> distances(
|
||||
g.height(), std::vector(g.width(), graph::unreachable()));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹source› destination denotes the beginning where the cost is 0
|
||||
auto [sx, sy] = source;
|
||||
distances[sy][sx] = 0;
|
||||
|
||||
// now we need to improve the paths as long as possible
|
||||
bool improvement_found;
|
||||
do {
|
||||
// reset the flag at the beginning
|
||||
improvement_found = false;
|
||||
|
||||
// go through all of the vertices
|
||||
for (int y = 0; y < g.height(); ++y) {
|
||||
for (int x = 0; x < g.width(); ++x) {
|
||||
// skip the cells we cannot reach
|
||||
if (distances[y][x] == graph::unreachable()) {
|
||||
continue;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// go through the neighbours
|
||||
auto u = std::make_pair(x, y);
|
||||
for (const auto& [dx, dy] : DIRECTIONS) {
|
||||
auto v = std::make_pair(x + dx, y + dy);
|
||||
auto cost = g.cost(u, v);
|
||||
|
||||
// if we can move to the cell and it's better, relax¹ it
|
||||
if (cost != graph::unreachable() &&
|
||||
distances[y][x] + cost < distances[y + dy][x + dx]) {
|
||||
distances[y + dy][x + dx] = distances[y][x] + cost;
|
||||
improvement_found = true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
} while (improvement_found);
|
||||
|
||||
return distances[destination.second][destination.first];
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info Relaxation
|
||||
|
||||
I have made a brief mention of the relaxation in the comment in the code. You've
|
||||
been probably thought that **relaxation of an edge** means that you found
|
||||
a better solution to the problem.
|
||||
|
||||
In general it is an approximation technique that _reduces_ the problem of
|
||||
finding the path `u → x1 → … → xn → v` to subproblems
|
||||
`u → x1, x1 → x2, …, xn → v` such that the sum of the costs of each step is
|
||||
**minimal**.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Correctness
|
||||
|
||||
_Is our solution correct?_ It appears to be correct… We have rather complicated
|
||||
map and our algorithm has finished in an instant with the following output:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Graph:
|
||||
#############
|
||||
#..#..*.*.**#
|
||||
##***.....**#
|
||||
#..########.#
|
||||
#...###...#.#
|
||||
#..#...##.#.#
|
||||
#..#.*.#..#.#
|
||||
#D...#....#.#
|
||||
########*.*.#
|
||||
#S..........#
|
||||
#############
|
||||
Cost: 22
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a better look at the map, you will realize that the cost `22` is the
|
||||
one path skipping the `*` cells, since they cost more than going around.
|
||||
|
||||
We can play around a bit with it. The `*` cells can be even vortices that pull
|
||||
you in with a negative price and let you _propel_ yourself out :wink: Let's
|
||||
change their cost to `-1` then. Let's check what's the fastest path to the cell.
|
||||
```
|
||||
Graph:
|
||||
#############
|
||||
#..#..*.*.**#
|
||||
##***.....**#
|
||||
#..########.#
|
||||
#...###...#.#
|
||||
#..#...##.#.#
|
||||
#..#.*.#..#.#
|
||||
#D...#....#.#
|
||||
########*.*.#
|
||||
#S..........#
|
||||
#############
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And we're somehow stuck… The issue comes from the fact that _spinning around_ in
|
||||
the vortices allows us to lower the cost infinitely. That's why after each
|
||||
iteration there is still a possibility to lower the cost, hence the algorithm
|
||||
doesn't finish. _What can we do about this?_
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
This algorithm is correct as long as there are no negative loops, i.e. ways how
|
||||
to lower the cost infinitely. Therefore we can also just lay a precondition that
|
||||
requires no negative loops to be present.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixing the infinite loop
|
||||
|
||||
Our issue lies in the fact that we can endlessly lower the cost. Such thing must
|
||||
surely happen in some kind of a loop. We could probably track the relaxations
|
||||
and once we spot repeating patterns, we know we can safely terminate with _some_
|
||||
results at least.
|
||||
|
||||
This approach will not even work on our 2D map, let alone any graph. Problem is
|
||||
that the _negative loops_ lower the cost in **each** iteration and that results
|
||||
in lowering of the costs to the cells that are reachable from the said loops.
|
||||
That's why this problem is relatively hard to tackle, it's not that easy to spot
|
||||
the repeating patterns algorithmically.
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand, we can approach this from the different perspective. Let's
|
||||
assume the worst-case scenario (generalized for any graph):
|
||||
> Let $K_n$ be complete graph. Let $P$ be the shortest path from $v_1$ to $v_n$
|
||||
> such that $P$ has $n - 1$ edges, i.e. the shortest path between the two chosen
|
||||
> vertices visits all vertices (not necessarily in order) and has the lowest
|
||||
> cost.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> In such scenario assume the worst-case ordering of the relaxations (only one
|
||||
> _helpful_ relaxation per iteration). In this case, in each iteration we find
|
||||
> the next edge on our path $P$ as the last. This means that we need
|
||||
> $\vert V \vert - 1$ iterations to find the shortest path $P$.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Because we have laid $P$ as the shortest path from $v_1$ to $v_n$ and it
|
||||
> visits all vertices, its prefixes are the shortest paths from $v_1$ to any
|
||||
> other vertex in our graph.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Therefore, we can safely assume that any relaxation after $\vert V \vert - 1$
|
||||
> iterations, is the effect of a negative loop in the graph.
|
||||
|
||||
_How can we leverage this?_ We will go through the edges only as many times as
|
||||
cells we have. Let's adjust the code to fix the looping:
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
auto bf_finite(const graph& g, const vertex_t& source,
|
||||
const vertex_t& destination) -> int {
|
||||
// ‹source› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(source));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹destination› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(destination));
|
||||
|
||||
// we need to initialize the distances
|
||||
std::vector<std::vector<int>> distances(
|
||||
g.height(), std::vector(g.width(), graph::unreachable()));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹source› destination denotes the beginning where the cost is 0
|
||||
auto [sx, sy] = source;
|
||||
distances[sy][sx] = 0;
|
||||
|
||||
// now we only iterate as many times as cells that we have
|
||||
for (int i = g.height() * g.width(); i > 0; --i) {
|
||||
// go through all of the vertices
|
||||
for (int y = 0; y < g.height(); ++y) {
|
||||
for (int x = 0; x < g.width(); ++x) {
|
||||
// skip the cells we cannot reach
|
||||
if (distances[y][x] == graph::unreachable()) {
|
||||
continue;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// go through the neighbours
|
||||
auto u = std::make_pair(x, y);
|
||||
for (const auto& [dx, dy] : DIRECTIONS) {
|
||||
auto v = std::make_pair(x + dx, y + dy);
|
||||
auto cost = g.cost(u, v);
|
||||
|
||||
// if we can move to the cell and it's better, relax¹ it
|
||||
if (cost != graph::unreachable() &&
|
||||
distances[y][x] + cost < distances[y + dy][x + dx]) {
|
||||
distances[y + dy][x + dx] = distances[y][x] + cost;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return distances[destination.second][destination.first];
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And we get the following result:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Graph:
|
||||
#############
|
||||
#..#..*.*.**#
|
||||
##***.....**#
|
||||
#..########.#
|
||||
#...###...#.#
|
||||
#..#...##.#.#
|
||||
#..#.*.#..#.#
|
||||
#D...#....#.#
|
||||
########*.*.#
|
||||
#S..........#
|
||||
#############
|
||||
Cost: -236
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The negative cost means that there is a way to _propel_ ourselves via some
|
||||
vortices. Let's adjust the cost of _vortices_ back to the original `5` and check
|
||||
whether our modified algorithm works as it did before. And it surely does yield
|
||||
the `22` as before.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip Refactoring
|
||||
|
||||
You can definitely notice some _deep nesting_ in our code, to counter this
|
||||
phenomenon I will convert the looping over `x` and `y` to one variable that can
|
||||
be decomposed to `x` and `y`. It is a very common practice when working with 2D
|
||||
arrays/lists to represent them as 1D. In our case:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
i : 0 → width * height - 1
|
||||
x = i % width
|
||||
y = i / width
|
||||
```

## Bellman-Ford
|
||||
|
||||
If you have ever attended any Algorithms course that had path-finding in its
|
||||
sylabus, you probably feel like you've seen the algorithm above before[^3]… And
|
||||
yes, the first algorithm I have proposed is a very dumb version of the
|
||||
_Bellman-Ford_ algorithm, it's dumb, because it loops :wink: After our “looping”
|
||||
prevention we got to the point that is almost the _Bellman-Ford_ with the one
|
||||
exception that it doesn't report whether there are any negative cycles, it just
|
||||
ends.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's have a look at a proper implementation of the Bellman-Ford algorithm:
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
auto bellman_ford(const graph& g, const vertex_t& source)
|
||||
-> std::vector<std::vector<int>> {
|
||||
// ‹source› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(source));
|
||||
|
||||
// we need to initialize the distances
|
||||
std::vector<std::vector<int>> distances(
|
||||
g.height(), std::vector(g.width(), graph::unreachable()));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹source› destination denotes the beginning where the cost is 0
|
||||
auto [sx, sy] = source;
|
||||
distances[sy][sx] = 0;
|
||||
|
||||
// now we only iterate as many times as cells that we have
|
||||
for (int i = g.height() * g.width(); i > 0; --i) {
|
||||
// go through all of the vertices
|
||||
for (int v = g.height() * g.width() - 1; v >= 0; --v) {
|
||||
int y = v / g.width();
|
||||
int x = v % g.width();
|
||||
|
||||
// skip the cells we cannot reach
|
||||
if (distances[y][x] == graph::unreachable()) {
|
||||
continue;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// go through the neighbours
|
||||
auto u = std::make_pair(x, y);
|
||||
for (const auto& [dx, dy] : DIRECTIONS) {
|
||||
auto v = std::make_pair(x + dx, y + dy);
|
||||
auto cost = g.cost(u, v);
|
||||
|
||||
// if we can move to the cell and it's better, relax¹ it
|
||||
if (cost != graph::unreachable() &&
|
||||
distances[y][x] + cost < distances[y + dy][x + dx]) {
|
||||
distances[y + dy][x + dx] = distances[y][x] + cost;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// now we check for the negative loops
|
||||
bool relaxed = false;
|
||||
for (int v = g.height() * g.width() - 1; !relaxed && v >= 0; --v) {
|
||||
int y = v / g.width();
|
||||
int x = v % g.width();
|
||||
|
||||
// skip the cells we cannot reach
|
||||
if (distances[y][x] == graph::unreachable()) {
|
||||
continue;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// go through the neighbours
|
||||
auto u = std::make_pair(x, y);
|
||||
for (const auto& [dx, dy] : DIRECTIONS) {
|
||||
auto v = std::make_pair(x + dx, y + dy);
|
||||
auto cost = g.cost(u, v);
|
||||
|
||||
// if we can move to the cell and it's better, relax¹ it
|
||||
if (cost != graph::unreachable() &&
|
||||
distances[y][x] + cost < distances[y + dy][x + dx]) {
|
||||
relaxed = true;
|
||||
std::cerr << "Found a negative loop\n";
|
||||
break;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return distances;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And if we run it with our negative cost of entering vortices:
|
||||
```
|
||||
[Bellman-Ford] Found a negative loop
|
||||
[Bellman-Ford] Cost: -240
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### On the Bellman-Ford
|
||||
|
||||
You might be surprised that we have managed to iterate from a brute-force method
|
||||
that mindlessly tries to find a better path until there are no better paths left
|
||||
all the way to the Bellman-Ford algorithm.
|
||||
|
||||
I always say that Bellman-Ford is a _smart_ brute-force. BF is also an algorithm
|
||||
that leverages _dynamic programming_. You might wonder how can it utilize DP if
|
||||
it is “technically” a brute-force technique. Table with the shortest distances
|
||||
is the thing that makes it DP.
|
||||
|
||||
> I might not know the shortest path yet, but I do remember all of other paths,
|
||||
> and I can improve them, if possible.
|
||||
|
||||
That's where the beauty of both _dynamic programming_ and _relaxing_ gets merged
|
||||
together and does its magic.
|
||||
|
||||
Proof of the correctness of the BF is done via induction to the number of
|
||||
iterations. I would suggest to try to prove the correctness yourself and
|
||||
possibly look it up, if necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
Also the correctness of the BF relies on the conclusion we've made when fixing
|
||||
the infinite-loop on our naïve BF solution.
|
||||
|
||||
## Small refactor
|
||||
|
||||
Since we are literally copy-pasting the body of the loops just for the sake of
|
||||
relaxing, we can factor that part out into a separate function:
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
static auto _check_vertex(const graph& g,
|
||||
std::vector<std::vector<int>>& distances, int v,
|
||||
bool check_only = false) -> bool {
|
||||
bool improvement_found = false;
|
||||
|
||||
// unpack the vertex coordinates
|
||||
int y = v / g.width();
|
||||
int x = v % g.width();
|
||||
|
||||
// skip the cells we cannot reach
|
||||
if (distances[y][x] == graph::unreachable()) {
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// go through the neighbours
|
||||
auto u = std::make_pair(x, y);
|
||||
for (const auto& [dx, dy] : DIRECTIONS) {
|
||||
auto v = std::make_pair(x + dx, y + dy);
|
||||
auto cost = g.cost(u, v);
|
||||
|
||||
// if we can move to the cell and it's better, relax¹ it
|
||||
if (cost != graph::unreachable() &&
|
||||
distances[y][x] + cost < distances[y + dy][x + dx]) {
|
||||
if (check_only) {
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
distances[y + dy][x + dx] = distances[y][x] + cost;
|
||||
improvement_found = true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return improvement_found;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This function can be also used for checking the negative loops at the end of the
|
||||
BF by using the `check_only` parameter to signal that we just want to know if
|
||||
there would be any edge relaxed instead of performing the relaxation itself.
|
||||
|
||||
Then we can also see the differences between the specific versions of our
|
||||
path-finding algorithms in a clear way:
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
auto bf(const graph& g, const vertex_t& source, const vertex_t& destination)
|
||||
-> int {
|
||||
// ‹source› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(source));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹destination› must be within the bounds
|
||||
assert(g.has(destination));
|
||||
|
||||
// we need to initialize the distances
|
||||
std::vector<std::vector<int>> distances(
|
||||
g.height(), std::vector(g.width(), graph::unreachable()));
|
||||
|
||||
// ‹source› destination denotes the beginning where the cost is 0
|
||||
auto [sx, sy] = source;
|
||||
distances[sy][sx] = 0;
|
||||
|
||||
// now we need to improve the paths as long as possible
|
||||
bool improvement_found;
|
||||
do {
|
||||
// reset the flag at the beginning
|
||||
improvement_found = false;
|
||||
|
||||
// go through all of the vertices
|
||||
for (int v = g.height() * g.width() - 1; v >= 0; --v) {
|
||||
improvement_found = _check_vertex(g, distances, v) || improvement_found;
|
||||
}
|
||||
} while (improvement_found);
|
||||
|
||||
return distances[destination.second][destination.first];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
auto bf_finite(const graph& g, const vertex_t& source,
|
||||
const vertex_t& destination) -> int {

You might've noticed that I've been using abbreviation _BF_ interchangeably for
|
||||
both _Bellman-Ford_ and _brute-force_. If you think about the way Bellman-Ford
|
||||
algorithm works, you should realize that in the worst case it's updating the
|
||||
shortest path till there no shorter path exists, so in a sense, you could really
|
||||
consider it a brute-force algorithm.

|
||||
[^2]: Of course, there are some technicalities like keeping track of the visited
|
||||
vertices to not taint the shortest path by already visited vertices.
|
||||
[^3]: or at least you should, LOL
