[LintCode] Connected Component in Undirected Graph

Posted 2020-10-14 Push your limit!

Find the number connected component in the undirected graph. Each node in the graph contains a label and a list of its neighbors. (a connected component (or just component) of an undirected graph is a subgraph in which any two vertices are connected to each other by paths, and which is connected to no additional vertices in the supergraph.)

Each connected component should sort by label.

 

Example

Given graph:

A------B  C
 \     |  | 
  \    |  |
   \   |  |
    \  |  |
      D   E

Return {A,B,D}, {C,E}. Since there are two connected component which is {A,B,D}, {C,E}

 

Solution 1. BFS

Algorithm.

Iterate all nodes in the input graph and do the following.

1. For each unvisited graph node s, do a bfs starting from it and add all nodes that can be reached from s to a list as one connected component. Add each visited nodes to a global set that tracks which nodes have been visited.

2. Sort each connected component.

Solution 2. Union Find

Algorithm.

1. Add each node to a union find data structure and connect these nodes based on the graph edges. A hash map is better suited for the union find since the input graph nodes‘ labels do not necessarily starts from 0 and are not guranteed to be consecutive. 

2. Iterate through the uf and create a mapping bewteen a root label and its represented node labels. Sort each map value and add it to the final result.
