N'aimez-vous pas simplement les solutions de force brute? C'est un peu plus qu'un simple algorithme de retour en arrière: notre travailleur infatigable se déplace sur la carte, plaçant des fusibles et des feux d'artifice si nécessaire, tout en testant tous les mouvements possibles à tout moment. Eh bien, presque --- nous restreignons l'ensemble des mouvements et abandonnons tôt les états non optimaux afin que cela ne prenne pas une durée insupportable (et, en particulier, pour qu'il se termine.) Une attention particulière est prise pour ne pas créer de cycles ou involontaires. chemins et de ne pas revenir en arrière de la même façon que nous sommes venus, il est donc garanti que nous ne visitons pas le même état deux fois. Même ainsi, trouver une solution optimale peut prendre un certain temps, donc nous finissons par abandonner l'optimisation d'une solution si elle prend trop de temps.

Cet algorithme a encore une certaine marge. D'une part, de meilleures solutions peuvent être trouvées en augmentant les FRUSTRATIONparamètres. Il n'y a pas de GAB de compétition, mais ces chiffres peuvent être augmentés si et quand ...

Compiler avec: g++ fireworks.cpp -ofireworks -std=c++11 -pthread -O3.

Exécuter avec: ./fireworks.

Pour référence, voici une approche beaucoup plus simple. Il essaie de connecter des feux d'artifice à une seule ligne de fusible principale, créant une forme "d'escalier". Si un feu d'artifice ne peut pas se connecter directement à la ligne principale (ce qui se produit lorsque deux feux d'artifice ou plus s'allument en même temps), il retrace la ligne principale à la recherche d'un point où il peut se ramifier perpendiculairement vers le bas ou vers la droite (et échoue si un tel point n'existe pas.)

Sans surprise, il fait pire que le solveur de force brute, mais pas par une énorme marge. Honnêtement, je m'attendais à ce que la différence soit un peu plus grande.

Par curiosité, combien de temps cela prend-il pour compléter les paramètres actuels?

@Geobits: Cela dépend de la machine, évidemment, et je n'ai pas regardé de trop près, mais je pense à une vingtaine de minutes, donner ou prendre.
