Java中的稀疏矩阵/数组

java

我正在开发一个用Java编写的项目,该项目要求我建立一个非常大的2-D稀疏数组。非常稀疏,如果有所作为。无论如何:此应用程序最关键的方面是时间方面的效率(假定内存负载,尽管没有那么无限的限制,以至于我无法使用标准的2D数组-关键范围在两个维度上都在数十亿之内)。

在数组中的千亿个单元中,将有数十万个单元包含一个对象。我需要能够非常快速地修改单元格内容。

无论如何:有人知道为此目的特别好的图书馆吗?它必须是伯克利,LGPL或类似的许可证(没有GPL,因为该产品不能完全开源)。或者,如果只有一种非常简单的方法来制作自制的稀疏数组对象,那也可以。

我正在考虑MTJ,但尚未听到有关其质量的任何意见。

使用散列图构建的稀疏数组对于频繁读取的数据效率很低。最有效的实现方式是使用Trie,该Trie允许访问分布有段的单个向量。

Trie可以通过仅执行只读两个数组索引来获取元素存储的有效位置,或知道基础存储中是否不存在元素,从而计算表中是否存在元素。

它也可以为稀疏数组的默认值在后备存储中提供默认位置,因此你不需要对返回的索引进行任何测试,因为Trie保证所有可能的源索引都将至少映射到默认值在后备存储中的位置(你经常会在其中存储零,空字符串或空对象)。

存在支持快速更新Tries的实现,并通过一个“ compact()”操作在多个操作结束时优化后备存储的大小。尝试比哈希映射要快得多,因为它们不需要任何复杂的哈希函数,并且不需要处理读取冲突(对于哈希映射,读取和写入都具有冲突,这需要循环以跳至下一个候选职位,并对其进行测试以比较有效来源索引…)

另外,Java Hashmaps只能在对象上建立索引,并且为每个散列的源索引创建一个Integer对象(每次读取都需要创建该对象,而不仅仅是写入)在内存操作方面是昂贵的,因为它强调了垃圾收集器。

我真的希望JRE包括IntegerTrieMap 作为慢速HashMap 的默认实现或LongTrieMap 作为慢速HashMap 的默认实现…但这是仍然不是这样。

你可能想知道什么是特里?

它只是一小部分整数数组(比矩阵的整个坐标范围小),可以将坐标映射到向量中的整数位置。

例如,假设你想要一个1024 * 1024矩阵,其中仅包含一些非零值。与其将矩阵存储在包含1024 * 1024个元素(超过100万个)的数组中,不如将其拆分为大小为16 * 16的子范围,而只需要64 * 64个这样的子范围即可。

在这种情况下,Trie索引将仅包含64 * 64的整数(4096),并且将至少有16 * 16的数据元素(包含默认零或稀疏矩阵中最常见的子范围)。

并且用于存储值的向量对于彼此相等的子范围将仅包含1个副本(其中大多数为零,它们将由相同的子范围表示)。

因此matrix[i][j],你可以使用类似以下语法,而不是使用类似的语法:

trie.values[trie.subrangePositions[(i & ~15) + (j >> 4)] +
            ((i & 15) << 4) + (j & 15)]

使用trie对象的访问方法将可以更方便地处理它。

注意:此代码不完整,因为它只能处理单个矩阵大小,并且其压缩器仅限于仅检测公共子范围而不进行交错。

另外,代码不会根据矩阵大小确定将矩阵划分为子范围(用于x或y坐标)的最佳宽度或高度。它仅使用相同的静态子范围大小16(对于两个坐标),但可以方便地使用其他任何2的小数幂(但是如果不使用2的幂,则会降低int indexOf(int, int)和int offsetOf(int, int)内部方法的速度),对于两个坐标和向上理想情况下,该compact()方法应该能够确定最佳的拟合尺寸。

如果这些分裂子区域的大小可以改变,那么将有必要添加实例成员对这些小范围的大小,而不是静态的SUBRANGE_POSITIONS,并且使静态方法int subrangeOf(int i, int j)int positionOffsetOf(int i, int j)成非静态的; 和初始化数组DEFAULT_POSITIONS,DEFAULT_VALUES则需要将其删除或重新定义。

如果要支持交织,则基本上是从将现有值分成两个大小相同的值开始(两者都是最小子范围大小的倍数,第一个子集可能比第二个子集多一个子范围),以及你将在所有连续位置扫描较大的一个,以找到匹配的交错;那么你将尝试匹配这些值。然后,将子集分成两半(也是最小子范围大小的倍数),以递归循环,然后再次扫描以匹配这些子集(这会将子集的数量乘以2:与当前值的大小相比,subrangePositions索引的大小值得该值,以查看其是否提供有效的压缩(如果没有,则在此处停止:你直接从交错压缩过程中找到了最佳子范围大小)。在这种情况下; 在压实期间,子范围的大小将是可变的。

但是这段代码显示了如何分配非零值并data为其他(非零)子范围重新分配数组,然后当存在重复项时如何优化(compact()使用该setAt(int i, int j, double value)方法执行分配后)此数据的存储可以在数据中统一的子范围,并在subrangePositions数组中的同一位置重新索引。

无论如何,特里的所有原理都在这里实现:

使用单个向量而不是双索引数组(每个数组单独分配)来表示矩阵总是更快(并且在内存中更紧凑,意味着更好的局部性)。改进在double getAt(int, int)方法中可见!

你节省了大量空间,但是在分配值时,可能需要一些时间重新分配新的子范围。因此,子范围不应太小,否则重新设置对于设置矩阵而言会过于频繁。

通过检测公共子范围,可以将初始的大矩阵自动转换为更紧凑的矩阵。然后,典型的实现将包含上述方法compact()。但是,如果get()访问非常快而set()相当快,则如果有很多要压缩的常见子范围(例如,用自身减去大型非稀疏随机填充矩阵时),compact()可能会非常慢。 ,或将其乘以零:在这种情况下,通过实例化一个新的并丢弃旧的来重置Trie会更简单,更快。

公用子范围在数据中使用公用存储,因此此共享数据必须是只读的。如果必须更改单个值而不更改矩阵的其余部分,则必须首先确保在subrangePositions索引中仅对其进行一次引用。否则,你将需要在values向量的任意位置(通常在末尾)分配一个新的子范围,然后将该新子范围的位置存储到subrangePositions索引中。

请注意,通用Colt库虽然很好,但在处理稀疏矩阵时却不如它好,因为它使用了哈希(或行压缩)技术,尽管它是一个出色的优化,这既是节省空间和节省时间的,特别是对于最常见的getAt()操作。

即使是此处描述的setAt()操作也可以节省大量时间(此处实现的方式,即在设置后无需自动压缩,仍然可以根据需求和估计时间来实现,其中压缩仍将节省大量存储空间时间价格):节省的时间与子范围内的单元格数量成正比,而节省的空间则与每个子范围内的单元格数量成反比。如果要使用子范围大小,则最好妥协,例如每个子范围的像元数是2D矩阵中像元总数的平方根(在使用3D矩阵时,它将是立方根)。

在Colt稀疏矩阵实现中使用的哈希技术的不便之处在于,它们增加了很多存储开销,并且由于可能的冲突而导致访问时间变慢。尝试可以避免所有冲突,然后可以保证在最坏的情况下将线性O(n)时间节省为O(1)时间,其中(n)是可能发生冲突的次数(在稀疏矩阵的情况下,可能是对于非稀疏(即完整矩阵),最大为矩阵中非默认值像元的数量,即最大为矩阵大小的总数乘以与哈希填充因子成比例的因子)。

在Colt中使用的RC(行压缩)技术距离Tries较近,但这是另一种代价,这里使用的压缩技术对最频繁的只读get()操作具有非常慢的访问时间,并且非常慢setAt()操作的压缩。此外,所使用的压缩不是正交的,这与Tries的这种保留正交性的表示方式不同。对于相关的查看操作(例如跨步,换位(基于整数循环模块化操作的跨步操作),细分(通常包括子视图,包括子视图)),也将尝试保留这种正交性。

我只是希望柯尔特将来会更新,以使用Tries实现另一种实现(即TrieSparseMatrix而不是HashSparseMatrix和RCSparseMatrix)。这些想法在本文中。

Trove实现(基于int-> int映射)也基于类似于Colt的HashedSparseMatrix的哈希技术,即它们具有相同的不便之处。尝试会快很多,而且会占用适度的额外空间(但是可以对最终的矩阵/ trie使用最终的compact()ion操作,在延迟的时间内优化并变得比Trove和Colt更好)。

注意:此Trie实现绑定到特定的本机类型(此处为double)。这是自愿的,因为使用装箱类型的通用实现具有巨大的空间开销(并且访问时间要慢得多)。在这里,它仅使用双精度的原生一维数组,而不是通用Vector。但是,当然也可以为Tries派生通用实现…不幸的是,Java仍然不允许编写具有本机类型所有优点的真正通用类,除非编写多个实现(对于通用Object类型或每个通用类型)。本机类型),并通过类型工厂为所有这些操作提供服务。该语言应该能够自动实例化本机实现并自动构建工厂(目前,即使在Java 7中也不是这种情况,这是在其中。
