Math 第n个组合

Math 第n个组合,math,statistics,probability,combinatorics,Math,Statistics,Probability,Combinatorics,是否有一种直接的方法可以获得nCr所有组合的有序集合的第n个组合 示例:我有四个元素:[6,4,2,1]。一次取三个的所有可能组合为: [6,4,2],[6,4,1],[6,2,1],[4,2,1] 是否有一种算法可以在有序结果集中给出例如第三个答案[6,2,1],而不枚举所有以前的答案?只是一个粗略的草图: 将数字排列到元组的上三角矩阵中: A(n-1,n-1) Aij = [i+1, j-1] 若首先遍历矩阵行,将得到两个元素按递增顺序的组合。要概括为三个元素,请将矩阵行视为另一个三

是否有一种直接的方法可以获得nCr所有组合的有序集合的第n个组合

示例:我有四个元素:[6,4,2,1]。一次取三个的所有可能组合为: [6,4,2],[6,4,1],[6,2,1],[4,2,1]

是否有一种算法可以在有序结果集中给出例如第三个答案[6,2,1],而不枚举所有以前的答案?

只是一个粗略的草图: 将数字排列到元组的上三角矩阵中:

A(n-1,n-1)   
Aij = [i+1, j-1]
若首先遍历矩阵行,将得到两个元素按递增顺序的组合。要概括为三个元素,请将矩阵行视为另一个三角形矩阵,而不是向量。它创建了一个立方体的角

至少我会这样处理这个问题

让我澄清一下,您不必存储矩阵,您需要计算索引。 让我做一个维度的例子,原则上你们可以扩展到20个维度(簿记可能很糟糕)


这个二维示例适用于任何数字n,并且您不必将排列列表化。

一种方法是使用位的属性。这仍然需要一些枚举,但您不必枚举每个集合

例如,您的集合中有4个数字。因此,如果您正在生成4个数字的所有可能组合,您可以按如下方式枚举它们:

{6, 4, 2, 1} 0000 - {(no numbers in set)} 0001 - {1} 0010 - {2} 0011 - {2, 1} ... 1111 - {6, 4, 2, 1} {6, 4, 2, 1} 0000-{(集合中没有数字)} 0001 - {1} 0010 - {2} 0011 - {2, 1} ... 1111 - {6, 4, 2, 1} 查看每个“位”如何对应于“该数字是否在您的集合中”?我们在这里看到有16种可能性(2^4)

所以现在我们可以遍历并找到所有只有3位开启的可能性。这将告诉我们存在的“3”的所有组合:

0111 - {4, 2, 1} 1011 - {6, 2, 1} 1101 - {6, 4, 1} 1110 - {6, 4, 2} 0111 - {4, 2, 1} 1011 - {6, 2, 1} 1101 - {6, 4, 1} 1110 - {6, 4, 2} 让我们将每个二进制值重写为十进制值:

0111 = 7 1011 = 11 1101 = 13 1110 = 14 0111 = 7 1011 = 11 1101 = 13 1110 = 14 现在我们已经这样做了-好吧,你说你想要“第三次”枚举。让我们看看第三大数字:11。它具有位模式1011。对应于。。。{6,2,1}


基本上,您可以对任何集合使用相同的概念。现在我们所做的就是将问题从“枚举所有集合”转化为“枚举所有整数”。对于您的问题来说,这可能要容易得多。

注意,您可以通过递归生成包含第一个元素的所有组合,然后生成不包含第一个元素的所有组合来生成序列。在这两种递归情况下,删除第一个元素以获得n-1个元素的所有组合。在Python中:

def combination(l, r):
    if r == 0:
        yield []
    elif len(l) == r:
        yield l
    else:
        for c in (combination(l[1:], r-1)):
            yield l[0:1]+c
        for c in (combination(l[1:], r)):
            yield c
每当您通过这样的选择生成序列时,您都可以通过计算一个选择生成的元素数并将计数与k进行比较来递归地生成第k个元素。如果k小于计数,则您做出该选择。否则,减去计数,然后在该点重复您可能做出的其他选择。如果总是有
b
选项,您可以将其视为在base
b
中生成一个数字。如果选择的数量不同,该技术仍然有效。在伪代码中(当所有选项始终可用时):

如果你颠倒了选择的顺序,你就颠倒了顺序

def reverseKthCombination(k, l, r):
    if r == 0:
        return []
    elif len(l) == r:
        return l
    else:
        i=nCr(len(l)-1, r)
        if k < i:
            return reverseKthCombination(k, l[1:], r)
        else:
            return l[0:1] + reverseKthCombination(k-i, l[1:], r-1)
  • TLDR?只需滚动到最底部,即可找到我的最终解决方案
当我在寻找获取索引的方法时,我偶然发现了这个问题,如果指定的组合位于字典排序的列表中,那么它将位于,反之亦然,从一些潜在的非常大的对象集中选择对象,但在后者中找不到太多(问题的反面并不那么难以捉摸)

因为我也解决了(我认为是)你的确切问题,然后我想我会把我的解决方案发布到这里

**
编辑:我的需求也是您的需求——我看到了答案,认为递归很好。现在,经过六年的漫长岁月,你终于拥有了它;只需向下滚动。
**

对于您在问题中提出的要求(我认为是这样),这将很好地完成工作:

def iterCombinations(n, k):
if k==1:
    for i in range(n):
        yield [i]
    return
result = []
for a in range(k-1, n):
    for e in iterCombinations(n, k-1):
        if e[-1] == a:
            break
        yield e + [a]
然后,您可以在按降序排列的集合中查找该项(或使用一些等效的比较方法),因此对于所讨论的情况:

>>> itemsDescending = [6,4,2,1]
>>> for c in iterCombinations(4, 3):
...     [itemsDescending[i] for i in c]
...
[6, 4, 2]
[6, 4, 1]
[6, 2, 1]
[4, 2, 1]
但是,在Python中,这也可能是开箱即用的:

>>> import itertools
>>> for c in itertools.combinations(itemsDescending, 3):
...     c
...
(6, 4, 2)
(6, 4, 1)
(6, 2, 1)
(4, 2, 1)

以下是我为满足非递归算法的需求所做的工作,该算法不创建或遍历任意方向的有序列表,而是使用简单但有效的nCr非递归实现,选择(n,k):

要获取排序列表中某个(从零开始)索引的组合,请执行以下操作:

def iterCombination(index, n, k):
    '''Yields the items of the single combination that would be at the provided
    (0-based) index in a lexicographically sorted list of combinations of choices
    of k items from n items [0,n), given the combinations were sorted in 
    descending order. Yields in descending order.
    '''
    if index < 0 or index >= choose(n, k):
        return
    n -= 1
    for i in range(k):
        while choose(n, k) > index:
            n -= 1
        yield n
        index -= choose(n, k)
        n -= 1
        k -= 1
这对于你的例子来说太过分了(但我现在意识到这只是一个例子);这是每个索引的顺序:

def exampleUseCase(itemsDescending=[6,4,2,1], k=3):
    n = len(itemsDescending)
    print("index -> combination -> and back again:")
    for i in range(choose(n, k)):
        c = [itemsDescending[j] for j in iterCombination(i, n, k)][-1::-1]
        index = indexOfCombination([itemsDescending.index(v) for v in c])
        print("{0} -> {1} -> {2}".format(i, c, index))

>>> exampleUseCase()
index -> combination -> and back again:
0 -> [6, 4, 2] -> 0
1 -> [6, 4, 1] -> 1
2 -> [6, 2, 1] -> 2
3 -> [4, 2, 1] -> 3
这可以找到给定长列表的索引,或在眨眼间返回某个天文索引的组合,例如:

>>> choose(2016, 37)
9617597205504126094112265433349923026485628526002095715212972063686138242753600
>>> list(iterCombination(_-1, 2016, 37))
[2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003,
2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989,
1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981, 1980, 1979]

或者,因为这是最后一个,并且由于选择(n,k)中的反射,所以可以很快,这里有一个从右边到中间,看起来也一样快…

>>> choose(2016, 37)//2
4808798602752063047056132716674961513242814263001047857606486031843069121376800
>>> list(iterCombination(_, 2016, 37))
[1978, 1973, 1921, 1908, 1825, 1775, 1747, 1635, 1613, 1598, 1529, 1528, 1521,
1445, 1393, 1251, 1247, 1229, 1204, 1198, 922, 901, 794, 699, 685, 633, 619, 598,
469, 456, 374, 368, 357, 219, 149, 93, 71]
最后一个例子暂停思考了一秒钟,但你不会吗

>>> import random
>>> rSet = set(random.randint(0, 10000000) for i in range(900))
>>> len(rSet)
900
>>> rList = sorted(rSet, reverse=True)
>>> combinations.indexOfCombination(rList)

然而,从该索引返回到它在前面的实现中表示的900-choose-10000000的组合将非常缓慢(因为它只是在每次迭代时从n中减去一)

对于这样大的组合列表,我们可以对空间进行二进制搜索,而我们添加的开销意味着对于小的组合列表,搜索速度只会稍微慢一点:

def iterCombination(index, n, k):
    '''Yields the items of the single combination that would be at the provided
    (0-based) index in a lexicographically sorted list of combinations of choices
    of k items from n items [0,n), given the combinations were sorted in 
    descending order. Yields in descending order.
    '''
    if index < 0 or n < k or n < 1 or k < 1 or choose(n, k) <= index:
        return
    for i in range(k, 0, -1):
        d = (n - i) // 2 or 1
        n -= d
        while 1:
            nCi = choose(n, i)
            while nCi > index:
                d = d // 2 or 1
                n -= d
                nCi = choose(n, i)
            if d == 1:
                break
            n += d
            d //= 2
            n -= d
        yield n
        index -= nCi
最后提醒您,对于问题的用例,您将执行以下操作:

def combinationAt(index, itemsDescending, k):
    return [itemsDescending[i] for i in
            list(iterCombination(index, len(itemsDescending), k))[-1::-1]]

>>> itemsDescending = [6,4,2,1]
>>> numberOfItemsBeingChosen = 3
>>> zeroBasedIndexWanted = 1
>>> combinationAt(zeroBasedIndexWanted, itemsDescending, numberOfItemsBeingChosen)
[6, 4, 1]
