java priorityQueue update problem

(sorry for my bad english) I'm writing an implementation of Dijkstra algoritm and I need to use a priority queue. I use PriorityQueue as definited 开发者_开发百科in Java Platform SE 6. There is a way o a method like Q.update() in Java Platform SE 5 that rebuild priority queue in case the priorities of its elements have changed since they were inserted? (I have problem with relax and Q.poll()) I need that the update takes O(log n)


No, with a PriorityQueue, there is no way to re-heap elements while they are in the queue.

This is a common optimization for heaps. Although the time complexity of removing the top of the heap and putting an (updated) element back into the heap is of the same order, it takes roughly half the time just to notify the heap that the top element has been updated and may need to be moved down in the heap.


Updating the priority of an element already in the priority queue is an important operation and a priority queue not offering this operation is more or less useless.

An implementation of a priority queue which allows updating an already inserted value in O(log n) time looks like this:

And here are three small examples of using the priority queue.

static void showMinHeap() {
    Integer[] values = { 7, 9, 6, 3, 5, 1, 2, 8, 4, 0};
    PQueue<Integer> pq = new PQueue<Integer>(Arrays.asList(values));

    int lev = 1, i = 0;
    PQueue.PQItem<Integer> item = pq.getFirstItem();
    while(item != null) {
        if (i == lev) {
            System.out.println();
            lev <<= 1;
            i = 0;
        }
        System.out.print(item.getData());
        System.out.print(' ');
        i++;
        item = pq.getNextItem(item);
    }    
    System.out.println();
}

static void heapSort() {
    Integer[] values = { 7, 9, 6, 3, 5, 1, 2, 8, 4, 0};
    PQueue<Integer> pq = new PQueue<Integer>(Arrays.asList(values));

    for(int i=0; i < values.length; i++) {
        System.out.print(pq.removeFirst());
        System.out.print(' ');
    }
    System.out.println();
}

static void testNodes() {
    class Node implements Comparable<Node> {
        private int m_key;

        public Node(int k) { 
            m_key = k; 
        }

        public void updateKey() {
            m_key *= 2;
        }

        public int compareTo(Node v) {
            return (m_key == v.m_key) ? 0 : (m_key < v.m_key) ? -1 : 1;
        }

        public String toString() {
            return String.valueOf(m_key);
        }
    }

    PQueue<Node> pq= new PQueue<Node>();
    Random rand = new Random(7777);
    final int size = 20;

    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        Node v = new Node(rand.nextInt(size));
        pq.add(v);
    }
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
        // change key and update priority
        PQueue.PQItem<Node> item = pq.getItem(rand.nextInt(pq.size()));
        item.getData().updateKey();
        pq.updatePriority(item);

        // remove and show first
        System.out.println(pq.removeFirst());
    }
    System.out.println();
}
