Proble TLDR
Count of LIS in an array
Intuition
To find Longest Increasing Subsequence, there is a known algorithm with O(nlog(n)) time complexity. However, it can help with this case:
3 5 4 7
when we must track both 3 4 7 and 3 5 7 sequences. Given that, we can try to do full search with DFS, taking or skipping a number. To cache some results, we must make dfs depend on only the input arguments. Let’s define it to return both max length of LIS and count of them in one result, and arguments are the starting position in an array and previous number that we must start sequence from.
Approach
use an array cache, as
Mapgives TLE
Complexity
Time complexity:
O(n^2)Space complexity:
O(n^2)
Code
class R(val maxLen: Int, val cnt: Int)
fun findNumberOfLIS(nums: IntArray): Int {
val cache = Array(nums.size + 1) { Array<R>(nums.size + 2) { R(0, 0) } }
fun dfs(pos: Int, prevPos: Int): R = if (pos == nums.size) R(0, 1) else
cache[pos][prevPos].takeIf { it.cnt != 0 }?: {
val prev = if (prevPos == nums.size) Int.MIN_VALUE else nums[prevPos]
var cnt = 0
while (pos + cnt < nums.size && nums[pos + cnt] == nums[pos]) cnt++
val skip = dfs(pos + cnt, prevPos)
if (nums[pos] <= prev) skip else {
val start = dfs(pos + cnt, pos).let { R(1 + it.maxLen, cnt * it.cnt ) }
if (skip.maxLen == start.maxLen) R(skip.maxLen, start.cnt + skip.cnt)
else if (skip.maxLen > start.maxLen) skip else start
}
}().also { cache[pos][prevPos] = it }
return dfs(0, nums.size).cnt
}
Magical rundown
🏰🔮🌌 The Astral Enigma of Eternity
In the boundless tapestry of time, an enigmatic labyrinth 🗝️ whispers
tales of forgotten epochs. Your fateful quest? To decipher the longest
increasing subsequences hidden within the celestial array 🧩 [3, 5, 4, 7].
🌄 The Aurora Gateway: dfs(0, nums.size)
/ \
🌳 The Verdant Passage (dfs(1,0)) / 🌑 The Nebulous Veil (dfs(1,nums.size))
Your odyssey commences at twilight's brink: will you tread the lush
🌳 Verdant Passage or dare to penetrate the enigmatic 🌑 Nebulous Veil?
🌄 The Aurora Gateway: dfs(0, nums.size)
/
🍃 The Glade of Whispers (Pos 1: num[1]=3, dfs(1,0))
/
🌊 The Cascade of Echoes (Pos 2: num[2]=5, dfs(2,1))
/
⛰️ The Bastion of Silence (Pos 3: num[3]=4, dfs(3,2)) 🚫🔒
The labyrinth’s heart pulsates with cryptic riddles. The ⛰️ Bastion of Silence
remains locked, overshadowed by the formidable 🌊 Cascade of Echoes.
🌄 The Aurora Gateway: dfs(0, nums.size)
/
🍃 The Glade of Whispers (Pos 1: num[1]=3, dfs(1,0))
\
🌑 The Phantom of Riddles (Pos 2: num[2]=5, dfs(2,0))
Retracing your footsteps, echoes of untaken paths whisper secrets. Could
the ⛰️ Bastion of Silence hide beneath the enigma of the 🌑 Phantom of Riddles?
🌄 The Aurora Gateway: dfs(0, nums.size)
/
🍃 The Glade of Whispers (Pos 1: num[1]=3, dfs(1,0))
\
💨 The Mist of Mystery (Pos 3: num[3]=4, dfs(3,0))
\
🌩️ The Tempest of Triumph (Pos 4: num[4]=7, dfs(4,3)) 🏁🎉
At last, the tempest yields! Each twist and turn, each riddle spun and
secret learned, illuminates a longest increasing subsequence in the cosmic array.
Your enchanted grimoire 📜✨ (cache) now vibrates with the wisdom of ages:
prevPos\pos 0 1 2 3 4
0 (0,0) (2,1) (2,1) (3,2) (0,0)
1 (0,0) (0,0) (2,1) (3,2) (0,0)
2 (0,0) (0,0) (0,0) (2,1) (0,0)
3 (0,0) (0,0) (0,0) (0,0) (0,0)
4 (0,0) (0,0) (0,0) (0,0) (0,0)
Beneath the shimmering cosmic symphony, you cast the final incantation
🧙♂️ dfs(0, nums.size).cnt. The grimoire blazes with ethereal light, revealing
the total count of longest increasing subsequences.
You emerge from the labyrinth transformed: no longer merely an adventurer,
but the 🌟 Cosmic Guardian of Timeless Wisdom. 🗝️✨🌠
