2662. Minimum Cost of a Path With Special Roads

Description

You are given an array start where start = [startX, startY] represents your initial position (startX, startY) in a 2D space. You are also given the array target where target = [targetX, targetY] represents your target position (targetX, targetY).

The cost of going from a position (x1, y1) to any other position in the space (x2, y2) is |x2 - x1| + |y2 - y1|.

There are also some special roads. You are given a 2D array specialRoads where specialRoads[i] = [x1i, y1i, x2i, y2i, costi] indicates that the ith special road can take you from (x1i, y1i) to (x2i, y2i) with a cost equal to costi. You can use each special road any number of times.

Return the minimum cost required to go from (startX, startY) to (targetX, targetY).

 

Example 1:

Input: start = [1,1], target = [4,5], specialRoads = [[1,2,3,3,2],[3,4,4,5,1]]
Output: 5
Explanation: The optimal path from (1,1) to (4,5) is the following:
- (1,1) -> (1,2). This move has a cost of |1 - 1| + |2 - 1| = 1.
- (1,2) -> (3,3). This move uses the first special edge, the cost is 2.
- (3,3) -> (3,4). This move has a cost of |3 - 3| + |4 - 3| = 1.
- (3,4) -> (4,5). This move uses the second special edge, the cost is 1.
So the total cost is 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 5.
It can be shown that we cannot achieve a smaller total cost than 5.

Example 2:

Input: start = [3,2], target = [5,7], specialRoads = [[3,2,3,4,4],[3,3,5,5,5],[3,4,5,6,6]]
Output: 7
Explanation: It is optimal to not use any special edges and go directly from the starting to the ending position with a cost |5 - 3| + |7 - 2| = 7.

 

Constraints:

  • start.length == target.length == 2
  • 1 <= startX <= targetX <= 105
  • 1 <= startY <= targetY <= 105
  • 1 <= specialRoads.length <= 200
  • specialRoads[i].length == 5
  • startX <= x1i, x2i <= targetX
  • startY <= y1i, y2i <= targetY
  • 1 <= costi <= 105

Solutions

Solution 1: Dijkstra

We can find that for each coordinate $(x, y)$ we visit, suppose the minimum cost from the start point to $(x, y)$ is $d$. If we choose to move directly to $(targetX, targetY)$, then the total cost is $d + x - targetX + y - targetY $. If we choose to go through a special path $(x_1, y_1) \rightarrow (x_2, y_2)$, then we need to spend $ x - x_1 + y - y_1 + cost$ to move from $(x, y)$ to $(x_2, y_2)$.

Therefore, we can use Dijkstra algorithm to find the minimum cost from the start point to all points, and then choose the smallest one from them.

We define a priority queue $q$, each element in the queue is a triple $(d, x, y)$, which means that the minimum cost from the start point to $(x, y)$ is $d$. Initially, we add $(0, startX, startY)$ to the queue.

In each step, we take out the first element $(d, x, y)$ in the queue, at this time we can update the answer, that is $ans = \min(ans, d + dist(x, y, targetX, targetY))$. Then we enumerate all special paths $(x_1, y_1) \rightarrow (x_2, y_2)$ and add $(d + dist(x, y, x_1, y_1) + cost, x_2, y_2)$ to the queue.

Finally, when the queue is empty, we can get the answer.

The time complexity is $O(n^2 \times \log n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n^2)$. Where $n$ is the number of special paths.
