我有以下实现,但我想添加一个阈值,所以如果结果大于它,就停止计算并返回。
我该怎么办?
编辑:这是我当前的代码,
threshold
尚未使用...目标是使用它
public static int DamerauLevenshteinDistance(string string1, string string2, int threshold)
{
// Return trivial case - where they are equal
if (string1.Equals(string2))
return 0;
// Return trivial case - where one is empty
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(string1) || String.IsNullOrEmpty(string2))
return (string1 ?? "").Length + (string2 ?? "").Length;
// Ensure string2 (inner cycle) is longer
if (string1.Length > string2.Length)
{
var tmp = string1;
string1 = string2;
string2 = tmp;
}
// Return trivial case - where string1 is contained within string2
if (string2.Contains(string1))
return string2.Length - string1.Length;
var length1 = string1.Length;
var length2 = string2.Length;
var d = new int[length1 + 1, length2 + 1];
for (var i = 0; i <= d.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
d[i, 0] = i;
for (var i = 0; i <= d.GetUpperBound(1); i++)
d[0, i] = i;
for (var i = 1; i <= d.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
for (var j = 1; j <= d.GetUpperBound(1); j++)
{
var cost = string1[i - 1] == string2[j - 1] ? 0 : 1;
var del = d[i - 1, j] + 1;
var ins = d[i, j - 1] + 1;
var sub = d[i - 1, j - 1] + cost;
d[i, j] = Math.Min(del, Math.Min(ins, sub));
if (i > 1 && j > 1 && string1[i - 1] == string2[j - 2] && string1[i - 2] == string2[j - 1])
d[i, j] = Math.Min(d[i, j], d[i - 2, j - 2] + cost);
}
}
return d[d.GetUpperBound(0), d.GetUpperBound(1)];
}
}
这是关于你的答案:Damerau - Levenshtein 距离,添加阈值 (抱歉无法发表评论,因为我还没有 50 名代表)
我认为你在这里犯了一个错误。您已初始化:
var minDistance = threshold;
你的更新规则是:
if (d[i, j] < minDistance)
minDistance = d[i, j];
此外,您提前退出的标准是:
if (minDistance > threshold)
return int.MaxValue;
现在,观察上面的 if 条件永远不会成立!您应该将
minDistance
初始化为 int.MaxValue
这是我能想到的最优雅的方式。设置完d的每个索引后,看看它是否超出了你的阈值。评估是恒定时间的,因此与整个算法的理论 N^2 复杂度相比,这只是杯水车薪:
public static int DamerauLevenshteinDistance(string string1, string string2, int threshold)
{
...
for (var i = 1; i <= d.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
for (var j = 1; j <= d.GetUpperBound(1); j++)
{
...
var temp = d[i,j] = Math.Min(del, Math.Min(ins, sub));
if (i > 1 && j > 1 && string1[i - 1] == string2[j - 2] && string1[i - 2] == string2[j - 1])
temp = d[i,j] = Math.Min(temp, d[i - 2, j - 2] + cost);
//Does this value exceed your threshold? if so, get out now
if(temp > threshold)
return temp;
}
}
return d[d.GetUpperBound(0), d.GetUpperBound(1)];
}
您还将此作为 SQL CLR UDF 问题提出,因此我将在特定上下文中回答:您最好的优化不是来自优化 Levenshtein 距离,而是来自减少比较对的数量。是的,更快的 Levenshtein 算法会改善情况,但不如将比较次数从 N 平方(其中 N 数百万行)减少到 N*某个因子那么多。我的建议是仅比较长度差异在可容忍增量内的元素。在大表上,您在
LEN(Data)
上添加一个持久计算列,然后使用 include Data: 在其上创建索引:
ALTER TABLE Table ADD LenData AS LEN(Data) PERSISTED;
CREATE INDEX ndxTableLenData on Table(LenData) INCLUDE (Data);
现在,您可以通过加入最大长度差异(例如 5)来限制纯粹的问题空间,如果您的数据
LEN(Data)
变化很大:
SELECT a.Data, b.Data, dbo.Levenshtein(a.Data, b.Data)
FROM Table A
JOIN Table B ON B.DataLen BETWEEN A.DataLen - 5 AND A.DataLen+5
终于得到了...虽然没有我希望的那么有用
public static int DamerauLevenshteinDistance(string string1, string string2, int threshold)
{
// Return trivial case - where they are equal
if (string1.Equals(string2))
return 0;
// Return trivial case - where one is empty
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(string1) || String.IsNullOrEmpty(string2))
return (string1 ?? "").Length + (string2 ?? "").Length;
// Ensure string2 (inner cycle) is longer
if (string1.Length > string2.Length)
{
var tmp = string1;
string1 = string2;
string2 = tmp;
}
// Return trivial case - where string1 is contained within string2
if (string2.Contains(string1))
return string2.Length - string1.Length;
var length1 = string1.Length;
var length2 = string2.Length;
var d = new int[length1 + 1, length2 + 1];
for (var i = 0; i <= d.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
d[i, 0] = i;
for (var i = 0; i <= d.GetUpperBound(1); i++)
d[0, i] = i;
for (var i = 1; i <= d.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
var im1 = i - 1;
var im2 = i - 2;
var minDistance = threshold;
for (var j = 1; j <= d.GetUpperBound(1); j++)
{
var jm1 = j - 1;
var jm2 = j - 2;
var cost = string1[im1] == string2[jm1] ? 0 : 1;
var del = d[im1, j] + 1;
var ins = d[i, jm1] + 1;
var sub = d[im1, jm1] + cost;
//Math.Min is slower than native code
//d[i, j] = Math.Min(del, Math.Min(ins, sub));
d[i, j] = del <= ins && del <= sub ? del : ins <= sub ? ins : sub;
if (i > 1 && j > 1 && string1[im1] == string2[jm2] && string1[im2] == string2[jm1])
d[i, j] = Math.Min(d[i, j], d[im2, jm2] + cost);
if (d[i, j] < minDistance)
minDistance = d[i, j];
}
if (minDistance > threshold)
return int.MaxValue;
}
return d[d.GetUpperBound(0), d.GetUpperBound(1)] > threshold
? int.MaxValue
: d[d.GetUpperBound(0), d.GetUpperBound(1)];
}
