Maximum Subarray II

Given an array of integers, find two non-overlapping subarrays which have the largest sum.
The number in each subarray should be contiguous.
Return the largest sum.

Notice

The subarray should contain at least one number

For given [1, 3, -1, 2, -1, 2], the two subarrays are [1, 3] and [2, -1, 2] or [1, 3, -1, 2] and [2], they both have the largest sum 7.

Maximum Subarray 的follow up.

上来觉得这题很简单, 既然是求两个不互相交叠的子数组, 并使其和最大. 其实就是枚举划分位, 在每个划分位的左右, 各找到和最大的子数组,这样就是相当于这个划分位的最大和. 而左右两边求数组其实就是 Maximum Subarray 嘛~很简单. 但是这么做的后果是超时TLE.

 

再仔细分析这种O(n^2)复杂度的做法是否可以优化. 显然在枚举划分位, 并求其左右最大和数组的过程中有相当大的重复性. 我们可以先把划分位左边的最大和子数组,右边最大和子数组求出来先保存, 在O(n)时间先解决这个问题, 之后每次枚举划分位的时候,每个划分位的处理时间都是O(1).总体的时间复杂度就是O(n). 其实还是用DP的思路预先保存避免了子问题的重复解决,代码如下:

class Solution:
    """
    @param nums: A list of integers
    @return: An integer denotes the sum of max two non-overlapping subarrays
    """
    def maxTwoSubArrays(self, nums):
        if not nums or len(nums) < 2:
            return 0
        n = len(nums)
        #enumerate the split places
        """TLE超时的解法
        maxall = -sys.maxint
        for i in xrange(1, n):
            res1 = nums[0]
            local = nums[0]
            for j in xrange(1,i):
                local = max(local + nums[j], nums[j])
                res1 = max(res1, local)
            local = nums[i]
            res2 = nums[i]
            for j in xrange(i+1, n):
                local = max(local + nums[j], nums[j])
                res2 = max(res2, local)
            maxall = max(maxall, res1 + res2)
        return maxall
        """
        left = [-sys.maxint-1] * n
        right = [-sys.maxint-1] * n
        left[0] = nums[0]
        local = nums[0]
        for i in xrange(1, n):
            local = max(local + nums[i], nums[i])
            left[i] = max(left[i-1], local)
            
        right[-1] = nums[-1]
        local = nums[-1]
        for j in xrange(n-2, -1, -1):
            local = max(local + nums[j], nums[j])
            right[j] = max(right[j+1], local)
        
        maxall = -sys.maxint
        for i in xrange(n-1):
            maxall = max(maxall, left[i] + right[i+1]) #防止交叠
            
        return maxall

注意题目要求两个子数组不重叠. 所以划分位一定只能包含在一边.一定要注意.

另外其实在从右边往左求划分位右边最大和的过程中,本身已经可以计算最大和了, 这样只需要两次扫描.这种做法在Best Time to Buy and Sell Stock II 中有所体现. 不过相比DP优化而言,这种优化的价值比较小.

时间复杂度O(n), 空间复杂度也为O(n).
