在Python 2.7中实现Karger Min Cut时出错



我在Python中实现Karger-Min-Cut算法时遇到了死锁。我伤透了脑筋,但仍然不明白为什么我的实现不起作用,而它可以用铅笔和纸很好地工作。。。

考虑具有四个节点1、2、3、4和五条边的图

CCD_ 1。

在python中,我用两个列表来表示它们:

nodes = [1, 2, 3, 4]
edges = [[1, 2], [1, 3], [2, 3], [2, 4], [3, 4]]

我的想法是:随机选择一条边,比如[1, 3],折叠它,从节点列表中删除node = 3,就像3合并为1一样,然后从边列表中删除边[1, 3]

现在这两个列表看起来像:

nodes = [1, 2, 4]
edges = [[1, 2], [2, 3], [2, 4], [3, 4]]

当3合并为1时,边缘列表进一步更新为

edges = [[1, 2], [2, 1], [2, 4], [1, 4]] 

通过将得到的边列表中的所有3个都更改为1。

这就完成了第一个循环。

在第二个循环中,假设边缘[1, 2]是从边缘列表中随机选择的,然后重复上面的步骤,这样

nodes = [1, 4]
edges = [[2, 1], [2, 4], [1, 4]] 

其被进一步改变为CCD_ 6。由于[1, 1]指示自循环,因此它被移除,并且该循环的结果边缘列表是[[1, 4], [1, 4]]

由于节点数为2,过程结束,最小切割数为2(即最终边列表的长度)。

因此,我在Python中的实现如下:

import numpy as np

nodes = []
edges = []

f = open("kargerMinCut.txt", "r")
# The txt file has the form of an adjacency list
# The link to the txt file is at the very end          
for l in f:
    v = l.split()
    # The first element of each line is a (distinct)
    # vertex and is appended to nodes list.    
    nodes.append(int(v[0]))
    for u in v[1:]:
        # Edges list has the form as described in my 4 nodes example
        # above, which is unlike what in an typical adjacency list for
        # an undirected graph is. Here, if node 1 and node 2 share 
        # an edge, then edge [1, 2] only appears once in the "edges"
        # list, edge [2, 1] is not, which is why I used "set" below.
        edge = [int(v[0])]
        edge.append(int(u))
        count = 0
        for edg in edges:
            if (set(edg) == set(edge)):
                count += 1
        if (count == 0):
            edges.append(edge)
f.close()

while (len(nodes) > 2):
    # Number of current edges
    m = len(edges)
    # Choose a random edge uniformly 
    idx = np.random.randint(m)
    edgeChosen = edges[idx]
    # Two corresponding nodes of the chosen edge
    i = edgeChosen[0]
    j = edgeChosen[1]
    # Remove the second one from nodes list
    nodes.remove(j)
    # Remove the chosen edge from edges list
    del edges[idx]
    # Change all "j"s to "i"
    for ed in edges:
        for e in ed:
            if e == j:
                e = i
    # Remove those [i, i] edges (self loop)
    for ed in edges[:]:
        if len(set(ed)) == 1:
            edges.remove(ed)

print len(edges)

这只是Karger-Min-Cut算法的一次运行。虽然while循环中的for循环效率很低,但我只想尝试一下这个想法。我在一个有200个节点和2000多条边的输入上试验了上面的代码。

但无论我做了什么,Python在成功删除了几个节点和边后都会出现以下错误:

nodes.remove(j)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

这有点好笑。如果x不在节点列表中,则意味着[1, 2], [1, 3], [2, 3], [2, 4], [3, 4]0是先前包含在所选边中的"j"之一,并且被删除或更改为相应的"i"。

但是,我找不到我的代码有什么问题。我是不是错过了什么?有什么想法吗?非常感谢。

这里有一个非常初级的工作版本。这段代码可以在很多方面进行改进,但它确实有效,应该为您指明如何正确做事的方向。

from random import randint
nodes = [1,2,3,4]
edges = [[1, 2], [1, 3], [2, 3], [2, 4], [3, 4]]

while (len(nodes) > 2):
    target_edge = edges[randint(0, len(edges) - 1)]
    replace_with = target_edge[0]
    num_to_replace = target_edge[1]
    for edge in edges:
        if(edge[0] == num_to_replace):
            edge[0] = replace_with
        if(edge[1] == num_to_replace):
            edge[1] = replace_with
    edges.remove(target_edge)
    nodes.remove(num_to_replace)
    #remove self loops
    for edge in edges:
        if(edge[0] == edge[1]):
            edges.remove(edge)
    print(edges)
print(nodes)
print(edges)

造成错误的代码的实际部分是

edgeChosen = edges[idx]
i = edgeChosen[0]
j = edgeChosen[1]

j不在节点中。

如果您发布完整的代码,我们可以提供更多帮助。
