Scapegoat trees: a comparative performance assessment
Η εργασία αυτή παρουσιάζει και αναλύει μια εναλλακτική μέθοδο για την αποδοτική
εξισορρόπηση δυαδικών δέντρων αναζήτησης. Τα δέντρα scapegoat είναι ελαφρώς
ισορροπημένα και ανακατασκευάζουν μέρη τους υπό ορισμένες συνθήκες. Η amortized
χρονική πολυπλοκότητα για κάθε λειτουργία INSERT ή REMOVE είναι Ο(logn), ενώ η
worst-case πραγματική χρονική πολυπλοκότητα μιας FIND είναι Ο(logn). Τα δέντρα
scapegoat, σε αντίθεση με τις περισσότερες υλοποιήσεις αυτεξισορροπούμενων BST, δεν
απαιτούν επιπλέον δεδομένα (π.χ. χρώματα, βάρη, ύψη) στους κόμβους των δέντρων.
Χρησιμοποιούνται διάφορες μετρικές και δοκιμές για τη σύγκριση των δέντρων AVL και
scapegoat ως προς τη λειτουργικότητά τους. Τέλος, παρέχουμε δεδομένα ως προς την
επίδοση των δέντρων scapegoat σε πιθανές εφαρμογές πραγματικού χρόνου.This Thesis presents and analyzes an alternative tree scheme for the efficient balancing of
binary search trees. Scapegoat trees are loosely balanced and restructure parts of
themselves on certain conditions. The amortized time complexity for each INSERT or
REMOVE operation is Ο(logn), while the worst-case real-time complexity of a FIND one
is Ο(logn). Scapegoat trees, unlike most self-balancing BST implementations, do not
require extra data (e.g. colors, weights, heights) in the tree nodes. Various metrics and
tests are used to compare AVL and scapegoat trees on their functionality. Finally, we
provide data as to the performance of scapegoat trees in potential real-time applications
Top-Down Skiplists
We describe todolists (top-down skiplists), a variant of skiplists (Pugh
1990) that can execute searches using at most
binary comparisons per search and that have amortized update time
. A variant of todolists, called working-todolists,
can execute a search for any element using binary comparisons and have amortized search time
. Here, is the "working-set number" of
. No previous data structure is known to achieve a bound better than
comparisons. We show through experiments that, if implemented
carefully, todolists are comparable to other common dictionary implementations
in terms of insertion times and outperform them in terms of search times.Comment: 18 pages, 5 figure
