1 Sorting and Selection Introduction Divide and Conquer Merge-Sort Quick-Sort Radix-Sort Bucket-Sort 10-1 Introduction Assuming we have a sequence S storing a list of keyelement entries. The key of the element stored at rank i is key(i). Sorting is a process that rearrange the elements in S so that: if i j then key(i) key(j) according to the total order relation associated with the key. 10-2

2 Divide and Conquer Divide and Conquer is a designer pattern that allows us to solve larger problems by decomposing them into smaller and manageable sub-problems. Steps for divide and conquer: if the problem size is small enough, solve it using a straight forward algorithm divide the problem into two or more smaller sub-problems recursively solve the sub-problems combine the results of the sub-problems to obtain the result of the original problem Sorting Algorithms Review Sorting Algorithm Average Performance Worst Case Performance Remarks Bubble Sort O (n 2 ) O (n 2 ) Insertion Sort O (n 2 ) O (n 2 ) Simple but slow Selection Sort O (n 2 ) O (n 2 ) Heap Sort O (n log n) O (n log n) Fast but complicated 10-4

3 Merge Sort An efficient sorting algorithm based on divide and conquer. Algorithm: Divide: If S has at leas two elements (nothing needs to be done if S has zero or one elements), remove all the elements from S and put them into two sequences, S 1 and S 2, each containing about half of the elements of S. (e.g. S 1 contains the first n/2 elements and S 2 contains the remaining n/2 elements.) Recur: Recursively sort sequences S 1 and S 2. Conquer: Put back the elements into S by merging the sorted sequences S 1 and S 2 into a unique sorted sequence Merging Two Sequences But how can we merge two sorted sequences efficiently? We can use the pseudo code shown in the next slides. 10-6

4 Merging Two Sequences Algorithm merge (S 1, S 2, S): Input: Sequence S 1 and S 2 (on whose elements a total order relation is defined) sorted in non-decreasing order, and an empty sequence S. Output: Sequence S containing the union of the elements from S 1 and S 2 sorted in non-decreasing order; sequence S 1 and S 2 become empty at the end of the execution Merging Two Sequences while S 1 is not empty and S 2 is not empty do if S 1.first ().element () S 2.first ().element () then {move the first element of S 1 to the end of S} S.insertLast (S 1.remove (S 1.first ())) else {move the first element of S 2 to the end of S} S.insertLast (S 2.remove (S 2.first ())) {move the remaining elements of S 1 to S} while S 1 is not empty do S.insertLast (S 1.remove (S 1.first ())) {move the remaining elements of S 2 to S} while S 2 is not empty do S.insertLast (S 2.remove (S 2.first ())) 10-8

9 Merging Two Sequences Analysis Proposition 1: The merge-sort tree (see text book for details about the merge-sort tree) associated with the execution of a merge-sort on a sequence of n elements has a height of logn Proposition 2: A merge sort algorithm sorts a sequence of size n in O(n log n) time The only assumption we have made is that the input sequence S and each of the sub-sequences created by the recursive calls of the algorithm can access, insert to, and delete from the first and last nodes in O(1) time

10 Analysis We call the time spent at node v of merge-sort tree T the running time of the recursive call associated with v, excluding the recursive calls sent to v s children. If we let i represent the depth of node v in the merge-sort tree, the time spent at node v is O(n/2 i ) since the size of the sequence associated with v is n/2 i. Observe that T has exactly 2 i nodes at depth i. The total time spent at depth i in the tree is then O(2 i n/2 i ), which is O(n). We know the tree has height log n Therefore, the time complexity is O(n log n) Quick-Sort A simple sorting algorithm also based on divide and conquer. Steps for divide and conquer: Divide : If the sequence S has 2 or more elements, select an element x from S to be your pivot. Any arbitrary element, like the last, will do. Remove all the elements of S and divide them into 3 sequences: L, holds S s elements less than x E, holds S s elements equal to x G, holds S s elements greater than x Recurse: Recursively sort L and G Conquer: Finally, to put elements back into S in order, first inserts the elements of L, then those of E, and those of G

11 Example Select - pick an element Example Divide - rearrange elements so that x goes to its final position E 10-22

12 Example Recurse and Conquer - recursively sort In-Place Quick-Sort Divide step: l scans the sequence from the left, and r from the right

13 In-Place Quick-Sort A swap is performed when l is at an element larger than the pivot and r is at one smaller than the pivot In-Place Quick-Sort 10-26

14 In-Place Quick-Sort A final swap with the pivot completes the divide step Analysis Consider a quick-sort tree T: Let s i (n) denote the sum of the input sizes of the nodes at depth i in T. We know that s 0 (n) = n since the root of T is associated with the entire input set. Also, s 1 (n) = n - 1 since the pivot is not propagated. Thus: either s 2 (n)= n - 3, or n - 2 (if one of the nodes has a zero input size). The worst case running time of a quick-sort is then: Which reduces to: O i= 0 i= 1 Thus quick-sort runs in time O(n 2 ) in the worst case. n 1 n 2 ( n i) = O i = O( n ) n 1 O s i ( n) i=

15 Analysis Now to look at the best case running time: We can see that quicksort behaves optimally if, whenever a sequence S is divided into subsequences L and G, they are of equal size. More precisely: s 0 (n) = n s 1 (n) = n - 1 s 2 (n) = n - (1 + 2) = n - 3 s 3 (n) = n - ( ) = n - 7 s i (n) = n - ( i-1 ) = n - 2 i This implies that T has height O(log n) Best Case Time Complexity: O(n log n) Randomized Quick-Sort Select the pivot as a random element of the sequence The expected running time of randomized quick-sort on a sequence of size n is O(nlogn) The time spent at a level of the quick-sort tree is O(n) We show that the expected height of the quick-sort tree is O(logn) 10-30

16 Randomized Quick-Sort good vs. bad pivots good: 1/4 n L /n 3/4 bad: n L /n < 1/4 or n L /n > 3/4 the probability of a good pivot is 1/2, thus we expect k/2 good pivots out of k pivots after a good pivot the size of each child sequence is at most 3/4 the size of the parent sequence After h pivots, we expect (3/4) h/2 n elements the expected height h of the quick-sort tree is at most: 2 log 4/3 n Decision Tree For Comparison-Based Sorting 10-32

17 How Fast Can We Sort? Proposition: The worst case running time of any comparison-based algorithm for sorting an n-element sequence S is Θ(n log n). Justification: The running time of a comparison-based sorting algorithm must be equal to or greater than the depth of the decision tree T associated with this algorithm. Each internal node of T is associated with a comparison that establishes the ordering of two elements of S. Each external node of T represents a distinct permutation of the elements of S. Hence T must have at least n! external nodes which implies T has a height of at least log(n!) Since n! has at least n/2 terms that are greater than or equal to n/2, we have: log(n!) (n/2) log(n/2). So the total time complexity: Θ(n log n) Can We Sort Faster Than O(n log n)? As we can see in the previous slides, O(n log n) is the best we can do in comparison-based sorting. How about non-comparison-based sorting? Can we sort faster than O(n log n) using non-comparisonbased sorting? The answer to this question is yes

18 Radix-Sort Unlike other sorting methods, radix sort considers the structure of the keys Assuming keys are represented in a base M number system (M is the radix), i.e., if M = 2, the keys are represented in binary Sorting is done by comparing bits in the same position Extension to keys that are alphanumeric strings Radix Exchange Sort We examine bits from left to right First sort the array with respect to the leftmost bit: 10-36

19 Radix Exchange Sort Then we partition the array into 2 arrays: Radix Exchange Sort Finally, we recursively sort top sub-array, ignoring leftmost bit(s) recursively sort bottom sub-array, ignoring leftmost bit(s) Time to sort n b-bit numbers: O(bn) 10-38

20 Radix Exchange Sort How do we do the sort from the previous page? Same idea as partition in Quicksort: repeat scan top-down to find key starting with 1; scan bottom-up to find key starting with 0; exchange keys; until scan indices cross; Radix Exchange Sort 10-40

21 Radix Exchange Sort Radix Exchange Sort vs. Quick Sort Similarities both partition array both recursively sort sub-arrays Differences Method of partitioning radix exchange divides array based on greater than or less than 2 b-1 quick sort partitions based on greater than or less than some element of the array Time complexity Radix exchange: O(bn) Quick sort average case: O(n log n) 10-42

22 Straight Radix Sort Examines bits from right to left: for k 0 to b-1 do sort the array in a stable way, looking only at bit k Stable Sorting In a stable sort, the initial relative order of equal keys is unchanged. For example, observe the first step of the sort from the previous page: Note that the relative order of those keys ending with 0 is unchanged, and the same is true for elements ending in

23 Stable Sorting We show that any two keys are in the correct relative order at the end of the algorithm Given two keys, let k be the leftmost bit-position where they differ At step k the two keys are put in the correct relative order Because of stability, the successive steps do not change the relative order of the two keys Example Consider sorting on an array with these two keys It makes no difference what order they are in when the sort begins. When the sort visits bit k, the keys are put in the correct relative order. Because the sort is stable, the order of the two keys will not be changed when bits > k are compared

24 Radix Sort on Decimal Numbers Straight Radix Sort on Decimal Numbers for k 0 to b - 1 do sort the array in a stable way, looking only at digit k Suppose we can perform the stable sort above in O(n) time. The total time complexity would be O(bn) As you might have guessed, we can perform a stable sort based on the keys k th digit in O(n) time. The method? Bucket Sort

25 Bucket Sort n numbers Each number {1, 2, 3,... m} Stable Time: O(n + m) For example, m = 3 and our array is: Note that there are two 2 s and two 1 s First, we create M buckets Example 10-50

26 Example Example Now, pull the elements from the buckets into the array At last, the sorted array (sorted in a stable way): 10-52

27 Sorting Algorithms Summary Sorting Algorithm Average Performance Worst Case Performance Remarks Bubble Sort O (n 2 ) O (n 2 ) Insertion Sort O (n 2 ) O (n 2 ) Simple but slow Selection Sort O (n 2 ) O (n 2 ) Heap Sort O (n log n) O (n log n) Fast but complicated Merge Sort O (n log n) O (n log n) Fast but still relatively complicated Quick Sort O (n log n) O (n 2 ) Integer Sort O (n) O (n) Fast and simple, but poor performance in worst case Fast and simple, but only applicable to integer keys Selection Finding the minimum or maximum element from an unsorted sequence takes O(n). This problem can be generalized into finding the k th minimum element from an unsorted sequence. We can first sort the sequence and then return the element stored at rank k-1. This will take O(n log n) due to sorting. But we can do better 10-54

28 Prune and Search Also call decrease-and-conquer. A design pattern that is also used in binary search. We find the solution by pruning away a fraction of the objects in the original problem and solve it recursively. The prune-and-search algorithm that we will discuss is call randomized quick selection. Not surprisingly, randomized quick selection is very similar to randomized quick sort Randomized Quick Selection Algorithm quickselect (S, k): Input: Unsorted sequences S containing n comparable elements, and an integer k {1,n} Output: The k th smallest element of S if n=1 then return the (first) element of S. pick a random element x of S remove all element from S and put them into 3 sequences: - L, storing the element in S less than x - E, storing the element in S equal to x - G, storing the element in S greater than x. if k L then return quickselect (L, k) else if k L + E then return x else return quickselect (G, k- L - E ) Performance: Worst case: O(n 2 ) Expected: O(n) Every element in E is equal to x Note the new selection parameter
