MonotoneMatrixSearchTraits Concept Reference

Definition

The concept MonotoneMatrixSearchTraits is a refinement of BasicMatrix and defines types and operations needed to compute the maxima for all rows of a totally monotone matrix using the function CGAL::monotone_matrix_search.

Notes

  • For the sake of efficiency (and in order to achieve the time bounds claimed for monotone_matrix_search), all these operations have to be realized in constant time - except for extract_all_even_rows which may take linear time.
  • There is an adaptor Dynamic_matrix that can be used to add most of the functionality described above to arbitrary matrix classes.
Has Models:
CGAL::Dynamic_matrix<M>

Member Function Documentation

Matrix* MonotoneMatrixSearchTraits::extract_all_even_rows ( ) const

returns a new Matrix consisting of all rows of m with even index, (i.e. first row is row 0 of m, second row is row 2 of m etc.).

Precondition
number_of_rows() >0.
Entry MonotoneMatrixSearchTraits::operator() ( int  row,
int  column 
) const

returns the entry at position (row, column).

Precondition
0 row < number_of_rows(), and 0 column < number_of_columns().
void MonotoneMatrixSearchTraits::replace_column ( int  old,
int  new 
)

replace column old with column number new.

Precondition
0 old, new < number_of_columns().
void MonotoneMatrixSearchTraits::shrink_to_quadratic_size ( )

deletes the rightmost columns, such that m becomes quadratic.

Precondition
number_of_columns() number_of_rows().
Postcondition
number_of_rows() == number_of_columns().
