Dynamic Programming
• An algorithm design technique (like divide and
conquer)
• Divide and conquer
– Partition the problem into independent subproblems
– Solve the subproblems recursively
– Combine the solutions to solve the original problem
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 3
Dynamic Programming
• Applicable when subproblems are not independent
– Subproblems share subsubproblems
– A divide and conquer approach would repeatedly solve the
common subproblems
– Dynamic programming solves every subproblem just once and
stores the answer in a table
• Used for optimization problems
– A set of choices must be made to get an optimal solution
– Find a solution with the optimal value (minimum or maximum)
– There may be many solutions that return the optimal value: an
optimal solution

information

Assembly Line Scheduling• Automobile factory with two assembly lines
– Each line has n stations: S1,1, . . . , S1,n and S2,1, . . . , S2,n
– Corresponding stations S1, j and S2, j perform the same function but can take different amounts of time a1, j and a2, j
– Entry times e1 and e2 and exit times x1 and x2
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 6
Assembly Line• After going through a station, can either:
– stay on same line at no cost, or
– transfer to other line: cost after Si,j is ti,j , j = 1, . . . , n - 1
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 7
Assembly Line Scheduling
• Problem:
what stations should be chosen from line 1 and which from line 2 in order to minimize the total time through the factory for one car?
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 8
One Solution
• Brute force– Enumerate all possibilities of selecting stations– Compute how long it takes in each case and choose
the best one
• Problem:
– There are 2n possible ways to choose stations– Infeasible when n is large
1 0 0 1 1
1 if choosing line 1 at step j (= n)
1 2 3 4 n
0 if choosing line 2 at step j (= 3)
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 9
1. Structure of the Optimal Solution
• Let’s consider the fastest way possible to get from the starting point through station S1,j
– If j = 1: determine how long it takes to get through S1,1
– If j ≥ 2, have two choices of how to get to S1, j:
• Through S1, j - 1, then directly to S1, j
• Through S2, j - 1, then transfer over to S1, j
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 10
1. Structure of the Optimal Solution
• Suppose that the fastest way through S1, j is through S1, j – 1
– We must have taken a fastest way from entry through S1, j – 1
– If there were a faster way through S1, j - 1, we would use it instead
• Similarly for S2, j – 1
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 11
Optimal Substructure
• Generalization: an optimal solution to the problem find the fastest way through S1, j contains within it an optimal solution to subproblems: find the fastest way through S1,
j - 1 or S2, j - 1.
• This is referred to as the optimal substructure property
• We use this property to construct an optimal solution to a problem from optimal solutions to subproblems
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 12
2. A Recursive Solution
• Define the value of an optimal solution in terms of the optimal solution to subproblems
• Assembly line subproblems– Finding the fastest way through station j on both lines, j = 1, 2, …, n
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 13
2. A Recursive Solution (cont.)
• fi[j] = the fastest time to get from the starting point through station Si,j
• j = 1 (getting through station 1)
f1[1] = e1 + a1,1
f2[1] = e2 + a2,1
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 14
2. A Recursive Solution (cont.)
• Compute fi[j] for j = 2, 3, …,n, and i = 1, 2
• Fastest way through S1, j is either:
– fastest way through S1, j - 1 then directly through S1, j, or
f1[j] = f1[j - 1] + a1,j
– fastest way through S2, j - 1, transfer from line 2 to line 1, then through S1, j
f1[j] = f2[j -1] + t2,j-1 + a1,j
f1[j] = min(f1[j - 1] + a1,j ,f2[j -1] + t2,j-1 + a1,j)

2. A Recursive Solution (cont.)
• f* = the fastest time to get through the entire factoryf* = min (f1[n] + x1, f2[n] + x2)

e1 + a1,1 if j = 1
f1[j] =
min(f1[j - 1] + a1,j ,f2[j -1] + t2,j-1 + a1,j) if j ≥ 2
e2 + a2,1 if j = 1
f2[j] =
min(f2[j - 1] + a2,j ,f1[j -1] + t1,j-1 + a2,j) if j ≥ 2
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 17
3. Computing the Optimal Solution
f* = min (f1[n] + x1, f2[n] + x2)
f1[j] = min(f2[j - 1] + a2,j ,f1[j -1] + t1,j-1 + a2,j)

3. Computing the Optimal Solution
• For j ≥ 2, each value fi[j] depends only on the values of f1[j – 1] and f2[j - 1]
• Compute the values of fi[j]– in increasing order of j
• Bottom-up approach– First find optimal solutions to subproblems– Find an optimal solution to the problem from the subproblems

Additional Information
• To construct the optimal solution we need the sequence
of what line has been used at each station:
– li[j] – the line number (1, 2) whose station (j - 1) has been used
to get in fastest time through Si,j, j = 2, 3, …, n
– l* - the line whose station n is used to get in the fastest way
through the entire factory

Dynamic Programming Algorithm
1. Characterize the structure of an optimal solution
– Fastest time through a station depends on the fastest time on
previous stations
2. Recursively define the value of an optimal solution
– f1[j] = min(f1[j - 1] + a1,j ,f2[j -1] + t2,j-1 + a1,j)
3. Compute the value of an optimal solution in a bottom-up
fashion
– Fill in the fastest time table in increasing order of j (station #)
4. Construct an optimal solution from computed information
– Use an additional table to help reconstruct the optimal solution

Matrix-Chain Multiplication
Problem: given a sequence A1, A2, …, An, compute the product:
A1 A2 An
• Matrix compatibility:
C = A B
colA = rowB
rowC = rowA
colC = colB
A1 A2 Ai Ai+1 An
coli = rowi+1
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 26
Matrix-Chain Multiplication
• In what order should we multiply the matrices?
A1 A2 An
• Parenthesize the product to get the order in which
matrices are multiplied
• E.g.: A1 A2 A3 = ((A1 A2) A3)
= (A1 (A2 A3))
• Which one of these orderings should we choose?
– The order in which we multiply the matrices has a
significant impact on the cost of evaluating the product

• A2: 100 x 5
• A3: 5 x 50
1. ((A1 A2) A3): A1 A2 = 10 x 100 x 5 = 5,000 (10 x 5)
((A1 A2) A3) = 10 x 5 x 50 = 2,500
Total: 7,500 scalar multiplications
2. (A1 (A2 A3)): A2 A3 = 100 x 5 x 50 = 25,000 (100 x 50)
(A1 (A2 A3)) = 10 x 100 x 50 = 50,000
Total: 75,000 scalar multiplications
one order of magnitude difference!!

Matrix-Chain Multiplication
• Given a chain of matrices A1, A2, …, An, where
for i = 1, 2, …, n matrix Ai has dimensions pi-1x pi,
fully parenthesize the product A1 A2 An in a
way that minimizes the number of scalar
multiplications.

1. The Structure of an Optimal Parenthesization
• Notation:
Ai…j = Ai Ai+1 Aj, i j
• For i < j:
Ai…j = Ai Ai+1 Aj
= Ai Ai+1 Ak Ak+1 Aj
= Ai…k Ak+1…j
• Suppose that an optimal parenthesization of Ai…j splits the product between Ak and Ak+1, where i k < j
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 31
Optimal Substructure
Ai…j = Ai…k Ak+1…j
• The parenthesization of the “prefix” Ai…k must be an
optimal parentesization
• If there were a less costly way to parenthesize Ai…k, we
could substitute that one in the parenthesization of Ai…j
and produce a parenthesization with a lower cost than the optimum contradiction!
• An optimal solution to an instance of the matrix-chain multiplication contains within it optimal solutions to subproblems
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 32
2. A Recursive Solution
• Subproblem:
determine the minimum cost of parenthesizing
Ai…j = Ai Ai+1 Aj for 1 i j n
• Let m[i, j] = the minimum number of
multiplications needed to compute Ai…j
– Full problem (A1..n): m[1, n]
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 33
2. A Recursive Solution (cont.)
• Define m recursively:
– i = j: Ai…i = Ai m[i, i] = 0, for i = 1, 2, …, n
– i < j: assume that the optimal parenthesization splits the
product Ai Ai+1 Aj between Ak and Ak+1, i k < j
Ai…j = Ai…k Ak+1…j
m[i, j] = m[i, k] + m[k+1, j] + pi-1pkpj
Ai…k Ak+1…j Ai…kAk+1…j
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 34
2. A Recursive Solution (cont.)
• Consider the subproblem of parenthesizing Ai…j =
Ai Ai+1 Aj for 1 i j n
= Ai…k Ak+1…j for i k < j
• m[i, j] = the minimum number of multiplications
needed to compute the product Ai…j
m[i, j] = m[i, k] + m[k+1, j] + pi-1pkpj
min # of multiplications to compute Ai…k
# of multiplications to compute Ai…kAk…j
min # of multiplications to compute Ak+1…j
m[i, k] m[k+1,j]
pi-1pkpj
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 35
2. A Recursive Solution (cont.)
m[i, j] = m[i, k] + m[k+1, j] + pi-1pkpj
• We do not know the value of k– There are j – i possible values for k: k = i, i+1, …, j-1
• Minimizing the cost of parenthesizing the product Ai Ai+1 Aj becomes:
0 if i = jm[i, j] = min {m[i, k] + m[k+1, j] + pi-1pkpj} if i < j
ik<j
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 36
Reconstructing the Optimal Solution
• Additional information to maintain:
• s[i, j] = a value of k at which we can split
the product Ai Ai+1 Aj in order
to obtain an optimal parenthesization
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 37
3. Computing the Optimal Costs
0 if i = jm[i, j] = min {m[i, k] + m[k+1, j] + pi-1pkpj} if i < jik<j
• How many subproblems do we have?– Parenthesize Ai…j for 1 i j n
– One problem for each choice of i and j
• A recurrent algorithm may encounter each subproblem many times in different branches of the recursion overlapping subproblems
• Compute a solution using a tabular bottom-up approach
(n2)
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 38
3. Computing the Optimal Costs (cont.)
0 if i = jm[i, j] = min {m[i, k] + m[k+1, j] + pi-1pkpj} if i < j
ik<j
• How do we fill in the tables m[1..n, 1..n] and s[1..n, 1..n] ?– Determine which entries of the table are used in computing m[i, j]– m[i, j] = cost of computing a product of j – i – 1 matrices– m[i, j] depends only on costs for products of fewer than j – i – 1
matrices
Ai…j = Ai…k Ak+1…j
– Fill in m such that it corresponds to solving problems of increasing length

4. Construct the Optimal Solution
• Store the optimal choice made at each subproblem• s[i, j] = a value of k such that an optimal
parenthesization of Ai..j splits the product between Ak and Ak+1
• s[1, n] is associated with the entire product A1..n
– The final matrix multiplication will be split at k = s[1, n]A1..n = A1..s[1, n] As[1, n]+1..n
– For each subproduct recursively find the corresponding value of k that results in an optimal parenthesization

Elements of Dynamic Programming
• Optimal Substructure
– An optimal solution to a problem contains within it an
optimal solution to subproblems
– Optimal solution to the entire problem is built in a
bottom-up manner from optimal solutions to
subproblems
• Overlapping Subproblems
– If a recursive algorithm revisits the same subproblems
over and over the problem has overlapping
subproblems
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 49
Optimal Substructure - Examples
• Assembly line
– Fastest way of going through a station j contains:
the fastest way of going through station j-1 on either
line
• Matrix multiplication
– Optimal parenthesization of Ai Ai+1 Aj that splits
the product between Ak and Ak+1 contains:
an optimal solution to the problem of parenthesizing
Ai..k and Ak+1..j
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 50
Discovering Optimal Substructure
1. Show that a solution to a problem consists of making a
choice that leaves one or more similar problems to be
solved
2. Suppose that for a given problem you are given the
choice that leads to an optimal solution
3. Given this choice determine which subproblems result
4. Show that the solutions to the subproblems used within
the optimal solution must themselves be optimal
• Cut-and-paste approach
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 51
Parameters of Optimal Substructure
• How many subproblems are used in an optimal
solution for the original problem
– Assembly line:
– Matrix multiplication:
• How many choices we have in determining
which subproblems to use in an optimal solution
– Assembly line:
– Matrix multiplication:
One subproblem (the line that gives best time)
Two choices (line 1 or line 2)
Two subproblems (subproducts Ai..k, Ak+1..j)
j - i choices for k (splitting the product)
6/08/2004 Lecture 6 COSC3101A 52
Parameters of Optimal Substructure
• Intuitively, the running time of a dynamic
programming algorithm depends on two factors:
– Number of subproblems overall
– How many choices we look at for each subproblem
• Assembly line (n) subproblems (n stations)
– 2 choices for each subproblem
• Matrix multiplication: (n2) subproblems (1 i j n)
– At most n-1 choices
(n) overall
(n3) overall
