This crate contains an implementation of the SMAWK algorithm for finding the smallest element per row in a totally monotone matrix.
Add this to your Cargo.toml:
toml
[dependencies]
smawk = "0.2"
and this to your crate root:
rust
extern crate smawk;
You can now efficiently find row and column minima. Here is an example where we find the column minima:
```rust extern crate ndarray; extern crate smawk;
use ndarray::arr2; use smawk::smawkcolumnminima;
let matrix = arr2(&[ [3, 2, 4, 5, 6], [2, 1, 3, 3, 4], [2, 1, 3, 3, 4], [3, 2, 4, 3, 4], [4, 3, 2, 1, 1], ]); let minima = vec![1, 1, 4, 4, 4]; asserteq!(smawkcolumn_minima(&matrix), minima); ```
The minima vector gives the index of the minimum value per column,
so minima[0] == 1 since the minimum value in the first column is 2
(row 1). Note that the smallest row index is returned.
This is a changelog describing the most important changes per release.
#18: Make
online_column_minima generic in matrix type.
#23: Switch to the Rust 2018 edition. We test against the latest stable and nightly version of Rust.
#29: Drop strict Rust 2018 compatibility by not testing with Rust 1.31.0.
#32: Fix crash on
overflow in is_monge.
#33: Update rand
dependency to latest version and get rid of rand_derive.
#34: Bump num-traits
and version-sync dependencies to latest versions.
#35: Drop unnecessary Windows tests. The assumption is that the numeric computations we do are cross-platform.
#36: Update ndarray
dependency to the latest version.
#37: Automate publishing new releases to crates.io.
First release with the classical offline SMAWK algorithm as well as a newer online version where the matrix entries can depend on previously computed column minima.
SMAWK can be distributed according to the MIT license. Contributions will be accepted under the same license.
