Find K Pairs with Smallest Sums

题目链接:https://leetcode.com/problems/find-k-pairs-with-smallest-sums/

题目:

You are given two integer arrays nums1 and nums2 sorted in ascending order and an integer k.

Define a pair (u,v) which consists of one element from the first array and one element from the second array.

Find the k pairs (u1,v1),(u2,v2) ...(uk,vk) with the smallest sums.

Example 1:

Given nums1 = [1,7,11], nums2 = [2,4,6],  k = 3

Return: [1,2],[1,4],[1,6]

The first 3 pairs are returned from the sequence:
[1,2],[1,4],[1,6],[7,2],[7,4],[11,2],[7,6],[11,4],[11,6]

Example 2:

Given nums1 = [1,1,2], nums2 = [1,2,3],  k = 2

Return: [1,1],[1,1]

The first 2 pairs are returned from the sequence:
[1,1],[1,1],[1,2],[2,1],[1,2],[2,2],[1,3],[1,3],[2,3]

Example 3:

Given nums1 = [1,2], nums2 = [3],  k = 3 

Return: [1,3],[2,3]

All possible pairs are returned from the sequence:
[1,3],[2,3]

思路:

刚开始没想用heap做,记录几个下标,维护遍历过程中可能最小的pair,结果在更新下标时,越做越麻烦,遂放弃,参考别人的做法:

用最小堆保存遍历过程中的pairs。

当遍历到(i,j)时,继续往下遍历,相邻的结点是(i+1,j),(i,j+1) 

因为是有序数组,这两个pair是较小的,加入堆中。


算法:

	public List<int[]> kSmallestPairs(int[] nums1, int[] nums2, int k) {
		List<int[]> res = new ArrayList<int[]>();
		boolean visit[][] = new boolean[nums1.length][nums2.length];
		Queue<int[]> heap = new PriorityQueue<int[]>(new Comparator<int[]>(){
			public int compare(int[] i, int[] j) {
				return (nums1[i[0]] + nums2[i[1]] -( nums1[j[0]] + nums2[j[1]]));
			}
		});

		heap.add(new int[] { 0, 0 });
		visit[0][0] = true;

		while (!heap.isEmpty() && res.size() < k) {
			int d[] = heap.poll();
			res.add(new int[] { nums1[d[0]], nums2[d[1]] });

			if (d[1] + 1 < nums2.length && visit[d[0]][d[1] + 1] == false) {
				heap.add(new int[] { d[0], d[1] + 1 });
				visit[d[0]][d[1] + 1] = true;
			}
			if (d[0] + 1 < nums1.length && visit[d[0]+1][d[1]] == false) {
				heap.add(new int[] { d[0]+1, d[1]});
				visit[d[0]+1][d[1]] = true;
			}
		}
		return res;
	}
