  3 Graphs • graph: Adata structure containing:  a set of vertices V, (sometimes called nodes)  a set of edges E, where an edge represents a connection between 2 vertices. • Graph G = (V, E) • an edge is a pair (v, w) where v, w are in V • the graph at right:  V = {a, b, c, d}  E = {(a, c), (b, c), (b, d), (c, d)} • degree: number of edges touching a given vertex.  at right: a=1, b=2, c=3, d=2 a c b d

  4 Graph examples • Foreach, what are the vertices and what are the edges?  Web pages with links  Methods in a program that call each other  Road maps (e.g., Google maps)  Airline routes  Facebook friends  Course pre-requisites  Family trees  Paths through a maze
• 5.
  5 Paths • path: Apath from vertex a to b is a sequence of edges that can be followed starting from a to reach b.  can be represented as vertices visited, or edges taken  example, one path from V to Z: {b, h} or {V, X, Z}  What are two paths from U to Y? • path length: Number of vertices or edges contained in the path. • neighbor or adjacent: Two vertices connected directly by an edge.  example: V and X X U V W Z Y a c b e d f g h
• 6.
  6 Reachability, connectedness • reachable:Vertex a is reachable from b if a path exists from a to b. • connected: A graph is connected if every vertex is reachable from any other.  Is the graph at top right connected? • strongly connected: When every vertex has an edge to every other vertex. X U V W Z Y a c b e d f g h a c b d a c b d e
• 7.
  7 Loops and cycles •cycle: A path that begins and ends at the same node.  example: {b, g, f, c, a} or {V, X, Y, W, U, V}.  example: {c, d, a} or {U, W, V, U}.  acyclic graph: One that does not contain any cycles. • loop: An edge directly from a node to itself.  Many graphs don't allow loops. X U V W Z Y a c b e d f g h
• 8.
  8 Weighted graphs • weight:Cost associated with a given edge.  Some graphs have weighted edges, and some are unweighted.  Edges in an unweighted graph can be thought of as having equal weight (e.g. all 0, or all 1, etc.)  Most graphs do not allow negative weights. • example: graph of airline flights, weighted by miles between cities: ORD PVD MIA DFW SFO LAX LGA HNL 849 8 0 2 1387 1743 1843 1099 1120 1233 3 3 7 2555 142
• 9.
  9 Directed graphs • directedgraph ("digraph"): One where edges are one-way connections between vertices.  If graph is directed, a vertex has a separate in/out degree.  A digraph can be weighted or unweighted.  Is the graph below connected? Why or why not? a d b e g f c

  11 Linked Lists, Trees,Graphs • A binary tree is a graph with some restrictions:  The tree is an unweighted, directed, acyclic graph (DAG).  Each node's in-degree is at most 1, and out-degree is at most 2.  There is exactly one path from the root to every node. • A linked list is also a graph:  Unweighted DAG.  In/out degree of at most 1 for all nodes.

  12 Searching for paths •Searching for a path from one vertex to another:  Sometimes, we just want any path (or want to know there is a path).  Sometimes, we want to minimize path length (# of edges).  Sometimes, we want to minimize path cost (sum of edge weights). • What is the shortest path from MIA to SFO? Which path has the minimum cost? ORD PVD MIA DFW SFO LAX LGA HNL $50 $ 8 0 $140 $170 $70 $100 $110 $120 $ 6 0 $250 $ 2 0 0 $500 $130

  13 Depth-first search • depth-firstsearch (DFS): Finds a path between two vertices by exploring each possible path as far as possible before backtracking.  Often implemented recursively.  Many graph algorithms involve visiting or marking vertices. • Depth-first paths from a to all vertices (assuming ABC edge order):  to b: {a, b}  to c: {a, b, e, f, c}  to d: {a, d}  to e: {a, b, e}  to f: {a, b, e, f}  to g: {a, d, g}  to h: {a, d, g, h} a e b c h g d f

  14 DFS pseudocode function dfs(v1,v2): dfs(v1, v2, { }). function dfs(v1, v2, path): path += v1. mark v1 as visited. if v1 is v2: a path is found! for each unvisited neighbor n of v1: if dfs(n, v2, path) finds a path: a path is found! path -= v1. // path is not found. • The path param above is used if you want to have the path available as a list once you are done.  Trace dfs(a, f) in the above graph. a e b c h g d f
• 15.
  15 DFS observations • discovery:DFS is guaranteed to find a path if one exists. • retrieval: It is easy to retrieve exactly what the path is (the sequence of edges taken) if we find it • optimality: not optimal. DFS is guaranteed to find a path, not necessarily the best/shortest path  Example: dfs(a, f) returns {a, d, c, f} rather than {a, d, f}. a e b c h g d f
• 16.
  16 Breadth-first search • breadth-firstsearch (BFS): Finds a path between two nodes by taking one step down all paths and then immediately backtracking.  Often implemented by maintaining a queue of vertices to visit. • BFS always returns the shortest path (the one with the fewest edges) between the start and the end vertices.  to b: {a, b}  to c: {a, e, f, c}  to d: {a, d}  to e: {a, e}  to f: {a, e, f}  to g: {a, d, g}  to h: {a, d, h} a e b c h g d f

  17 BFS pseudocode function bfs(v1,v2): queue := {v1}. mark v1 as visited. while queue is not empty: v := queue.removeFirst(). if v is v2: a path is found! for each unvisited neighbor n of v: mark n as visited. queue.addLast(n). // path is not found. • Trace bfs(a, f) in the above graph. a e b c h g d f
• 18.
  18 BFS observations • optimality: always finds the shortest path (fewest edges).  in unweighted graphs, finds optimal cost path.  In weighted graphs, not always optimal cost. • retrieval: harder to reconstruct the actual sequence of vertices or edges in the path once you find it  conceptually, BFS is exploring many possible paths in parallel, so it's not easy to store a path array/list in progress  solution: We can keep track of the path by storing predecessors for each vertex (each vertex can store a reference to a previous vertex). • DFS uses less memory than BFS, easier to reconstruct the path once found; but DFS does not always find shortest path. BFS does. a e b c h g d f
• 19.
  19 DFS, BFS runtime •What is the expected runtime of DFS and BFS, in terms of the number of vertices V and the number of edges E ? • Answer: O(|V| + |E|)  where |V| = number of vertices, |E| = number of edges  Must potentially visit every node and/or examine every edge once.  why not O(|V| * |E|) ? • What is the space complexity of each algorithm?  (How much memory does each algorithm require?)

  20 BFS that findspath function bfs(v1, v2): queue := {v1}. mark v1 as visited. while queue is not empty: v := queue.removeFirst(). if v is v2: a path is found! (reconstruct it by following .prev back to v1.) for each unvisited neighbor n of v: mark n as visited. (set n.prev = v.) queue.addLast(n). // path is not found.  By storing some kind of "previous" reference associated with each vertex, you can reconstruct your path back once you find v2. a e b c h g d f prev
