Palindrom ved frontinnsetting

Palindrom ved frontinnsetting
Prøv det på GfG Practice tegn-til-legge-på-front-for-Palindrome

Gitt en streng s som kun består av små engelske bokstaver, finn den minimum antall tegn som må være lagt til til front av s for å gjøre det til et palindrom.
Note: Et palindrom er en streng som leser det samme fremover og bakover.

Eksempler:  

Inndata : s = 'abc'
Produksjon : 2
Forklaring : Vi kan lage strengpalindrom over som 'cbabc' ved å legge til 'b' og 'c' foran.

Inndata : s = 'aacecaaaa'
Produksjon : 2
Forklaring : Vi kan lage strengpalindrom over som 'aaaacecaaaa' ved å legge til to a-er foran strengen.

Innholdsfortegnelse

[Naiv tilnærming] Kontrollerer alle prefikser - O(n^2) Tid og O(1) Mellomrom

Ideen er basert på observasjonen at vi må finne det lengste prefikset fra gitt streng som også er et palindrom. Da vil minimum fronttegn som skal legges til for å lage gitt strengpalindrom være de resterende tegnene.

[Forventet tilnærming 1] Bruke lps-array av KMP-algoritme - O(n) Tid og O(n) Space

Den viktigste observasjonen er at det lengste palindromiske prefikset til en streng blir det lengste palindromiske suffikset på baksiden.
Gitt en streng s = 'aacecaaaa' dens omvendte revS = 'aaaacecaa'. Det lengste palindromiske prefikset til s er 'aacecaa'.

For å finne dette effektivt bruker vi LPS-arrayet fra KMP algoritme . Vi setter sammen den opprinnelige strengen med et spesialtegn og dens omvendte: s + '$' + revS.
LPS-matrisen for denne kombinerte strengen hjelper til med å identifisere det lengste prefikset til s som samsvarer med et suffiks av revS som også representerer det palindromiske prefikset til s.

Den siste verdien av LPS-matrisen forteller oss hvor mange tegn som allerede danner et palindrom i begynnelsen. Dermed er minimum antall tegn som skal legges til for å gjøre s til et palindrom s.length() - lps.back().

[Forventet tilnærming 2] Bruke Manachers algoritme

Tanken er å bruke Manachers algoritme for å effektivt finne alle palindromiske delstrenger i lineær tid.
Vi transformerer strengen ved å sette inn spesialtegn (#) for å håndtere palindromer med både partall og oddetall jevnt.
Etter forbehandling skanner vi fra slutten av den originale strengen og bruker palindromradiusarrayen for å sjekke om prefikset s[0...i] er et palindrom. Den første slike indeks i gir oss det lengste palindromiske prefikset og vi returnerer n - (i + 1) som minimumstegn å legge til.

Tidskompleksitet: O(n) manachers algoritme kjører i lineær tid ved å utvide palindromer ved hvert senter uten å gå tilbake til tegn, og prefikssjekksløyfen utfører O(1) operasjoner per tegn over n tegn.
Hjelpeplass: O(n) brukt for den modifiserte strengen og palindromlengde-arrayen p[] som begge vokser lineært med inngangsstørrelsen.
