The single-source shortest path problem, in which we have to find shortest paths from a source vertex v to all other vertices in the graph. The single-destination shortest path problem, in which we have to find shortest paths from all vertices in the directed graph to a single destination vertex v. This can be reduced to the single-source ...
A central problem in algorithmic graph theory is the shortest path problem.One of the generalizations of the shortest path problem is known as the single-source-shortest-paths (SSSP) problem, which consists of finding the shortest paths from a source vertex to all other vertices in the graph.
The path [4,2,3] is not considered, because [2,1,3] is the shortest path encountered so far from 2 to 3. At k = 3, paths going through the vertices {1,2,3} are found. Finally, at k = 4, all shortest paths are found. The distance matrix at each iteration of k, with the updated distances in bold, will be:
Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path from a given source node to every other node. [7]: 196–206 It can be used to find the shortest path to a specific destination node, by terminating the algorithm after determining the shortest path to the destination node. For example, if the nodes of the graph represent cities, and the costs of ...
The first three stages of Johnson's algorithm are depicted in the illustration below. The graph on the left of the illustration has two negative edges, but no negative cycles. The center graph shows the new vertex q, a shortest path tree as computed by the Bellman–Ford algorithm with q as starting vertex, and the values h(v) computed at each other node as the length of the shortest path from ...
In graph theory, betweenness centrality is a measure of centrality in a graph based on shortest paths. For every pair of vertices in a connected graph, there exists at least one shortest path between the vertices, that is, there exists at least one path such that either the number of edges that the path passes through (for unweighted graphs) or ...
The weighted shortest-path distance generalises the geodesic distance to weighted graphs. In this case it is assumed that the weight of an edge represents its length or, for complex networks the cost of the interaction, and the weighted shortest-path distance d W (u, v) is the minimum sum of weights across all the paths connecting u and v. See ...
The number of shortest paths between and every vertex is calculated using breadth-first search. The breadth-first search starts at s {\displaystyle s} , and the shortest distance d ( v ) {\displaystyle d(v)} of each vertex from s {\displaystyle s} is recorded, dividing the graph into discrete layers.
