Table of Contents

Description

This library contains several graphs algorithms. The nodes in the graph can be any kind of object: a Character, a String, an Integer or a complex object.

How to install it

Metacello new
    repository: 'github://pharo-ai/graph-algorithms';
    baseline: 'AIGraphAlgorithms';
    load

How to depend on it

If you want to add this repo to your Metacello Baselines or Configurations, copy and paste the following expression:

spec
    baseline: 'AIGraphAlgorithms' 
    with: [ spec repository: 'github://pharo-ai/graph-algorithms' ]

Implemented graph algorithms

  • Tarjan’s Algorithm: Strongly Connected Components
  • BFS: Breath First Search
  • Graph Reducer: Merge all strongly connected components in a graph to a single node
  • Dijkstra: Shortest path in a weighted graph
  • Bellman-Ford: Shortest path in negative weighted graphs
  • Kruskal: Minimum or Maximum expanding tree in a graph
  • HITS: Hyperlink-Induced Topic Search
  • Topological Sort
  • Shortest Path in DAG

How to use the graph algorithms

The below code was extracted from the Pharo Graphs booklet which is a booklet in which this library along with all the algorithms are explained. You can check it out in Booklet-PharoGraphs

All the graph algorithms of this library share a common API also. The class AIGraphAlgorithm provides the common API to add nodes, edges, searching the nodes, etc.

Some of the common methods are:

  • algorithm nodes:
  • algorithm nodes
  • algorithm edges
  • algorithm edges:from:to:
  • algorithm edges:from:to:weight:
  • algorithm findNode:
  • algorithm run

Example 1

For using the topological sort algorithm, we can run this code snippet

"First define the nodes and the edges"
nodes := #( $A $B $C $D $E $F $G ).
edges := #( #( $A $B ) #( $A $C ) #( $B $E ) #( $C $E ) #( $C $D )
    #( $D $E ) #( $D $F ) #( $E $G ) #( $F $G ) ).

"Instantiate the graph algorithm"
topSortingAlgo := AITopologicalSorting new.

"Set the nodes and edges"    
topSortingAlgo nodes: nodes.
topSortingAlgo
    edges: edges
    from: [ :each | each first ]
    to: [ :each | each second ].

"Run to obtain the result"
topologicalSortedElements := topSortingAlgo run.

Example 2

Or if we want to find the shortest path in a weighted graph:

nodes := $A to: $F.
edges := #( #( $A $B 5 ) #( $A $C 1 ) #( $B $C 2 ) #( $B $E 20 )
    #( $B $D 3 ) #( $C $B 3 ) #( $C $E 12 ) #( $D $C 3 )
    #( $D $E 2 ) #( $D $F 6 ) #( $E $F 1 ) ).

dijkstra := AIDijkstra new.
dijkstra nodes: nodes.
dijkstra
    edges: edges
    from: [ :each | each first ]
    to: [ :each | each second ]
    weight: [ :each | each third ].

shortestPathAToB := dijkstra runFrom: $A to: $B.
pathDistanceAToB := (dijkstra findNode: $B) pathDistance.

dijkstra end: $F.
shortestPathAToF := dijkstra reconstructPath.
pathDistanceAToF := (dijkstra findNode: $F) pathDistance.

dijkstra reset.
shortestPathBToE := dijkstra runFrom: $B to: $E.

Graph generation algorithms

This library also contains algorithms for generating regular and random graphs. This algorithms are not loaded by default. To load them, you can either load them manually using Iceberg directly from the Pharo image or load the GraphGenerators baseline group.

The algorithms implemented are:

  • Albert Barabasi Graph Generator
  • Atlas Graph Graph Generator
  • Erdos Renyi GNM Graph Generator
  • Erdos Renyi GNP Graph Generator
  • Grid 2D Graph Generator
  • Grid 3D Graph Generator
  • Hexagonal Lattice Graph Generator
  • Kleinberg Graph Generator
  • Triangular Lattice Graph Generator
  • Waltz Strogatz Graph Generator
