Find cycles in an undirected graph

21 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi, I need to find cycles in a graph, exactly as it was asked here (and apparently without fully clear/working solutions!):
Here my example/code:
clear all; clc; close all;
figure('Color',[1 1 1]);
s = [1 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 5 6 7 6 8 9 10 10 12 12 13 14 15 16 17 17 18 19 20 21 20 25];
t = [2 8 18 3 4 23 5 21 6 7 8 11 9 10 11 12 14 13 15 18 16 17 18 25 19 20 1 22 24 26];
G = graph(s,t);
x = [0.5 0 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 3 3 3 5.5 6 4 6 6 4 3 2 0.5 -1 -2 -1 1.5 4.5 4.5];
y = [0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2 1.5 1 1 1.5 2 1 0.5 0.5 0 -1 -1 -0.5 -1 -1 1 0.5 0.5 -0.5 -0.5 0];
h = plot(G,'XData',x,'YData',y,'linewidth',2,'MarkerSize',7);
nl = h.NodeLabel;
h.NodeLabel = '';
xd = get(h, 'XData');
yd = get(h, 'YData');
text(xd, yd, nl, 'FontSize',17, 'FontWeight','bold', ...
'HorizontalAlignment','left', 'VerticalAlignment','top')
set(gca,'Fontsize',15,'FontWeight','Bold','LineWidth',2, 'box','on')
% Remove "branches"
xy = [x' y'];
while ~isempty(find(degree(G)==1))
degreeone = find(degree(G)==1);
G = rmnode(G,degreeone);
xy(degreeone,:) = [];
end
Here the corresponding Figure (after removal of "branches"):
My goal would be to find the following 5 cycles as output (i.e. lists of nodes composing each cycle):
  • 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-1
  • 6-7-8-9-10-11-6
  • 1-8-9-10-12-14-18-1
  • 1-18-19-20-1
  • 12-13-15-16-17-18-14-12
Note 1:
This method is partially working for my purposes.
Unfortunately, the 2nd and 4th cycles are not what I needed/expected.

for i = 1 : size(Output_SI,2)
w = [];
u = E(find(Output_SI(:,i)),:); % edges list
w(1) = u(1,1);
w(2) = u(1,2);
u(1,:) = [];
j = 2;
while ~isempty(u)
[ind,~] = find(u==w(j));
[~,ind2] = ismember(u, u(ind,:), 'rows');
g = u( ind2==1 ,:) ~= w(j);
w(j+1) = u( ind2==1 , g);
u( ind2==1 ,:) = [];
j = j + 1;
end
cycles_SI{i} = w;
end
% Sergii Iglin's results
>> cycles_SI{:}
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 11 10 9 8 1
1 8 9 10 12 14 18 1
1 8 9 10 12 13 15 16 17 18 1
1 18 19 20 1

nonTreeEdges = setdiff(G.Edges.EndNodes, t.Edges.EndNodes, 'rows');

for i = 1 : length(cycles_CT)
src = nonTreeEdges(i, 1);
tgt = nonTreeEdges(i, 2);
cycles_CT{i} = [tgt shortestpath(t, src, tgt)];
end

Any further idea / suggestion ?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Sim, I work at MathWorks on graphs. If you have a few minutes, I would very much appreciate hearing more about your workflow using cycles. Would you please contact me directly?

Because this sounds like a generally useful thing, I cooked up the attached polyregions class to do the partitioning that you described. It uses graph theoretic functions only.
Here is its application to the data example that you provided. Each partitioned polygon is contained in the polyshape array, pgon.
s = [1 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 5 6 7 6 8 9 10 10 12 12 13 14 15 16 17 17 18 19 20 21 20 25];
t = [2 8 18 3 4 23 5 21 6 7 8 11 9 10 11 12 14 13 15 18 16 17 18 25 19 20 1 22 24 26];
G = graph(s,t);
x = [0.5 0 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 3 3 3 5.5 6 4 6 6 4 3 2 0.5 -1 -2 -1 1.5 4.5 4.5];
y = [0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2 1.5 1 1 1.5 2 1 0.5 0.5 0 -1 -1 -0.5 -1 -1 1 0.5 0.5 -0.5 -0.5 0];
obj=polyregions(G,x,y);
pgon=polyshape(obj);
plot(obj);
hold on
plot(pgon);
hold off

Hi JUN WANG,
In 3D, what would be the criterion be for deciding which vertices form a tile? In 2D, a polygon is a tile if it doesn't overlap with any other polygons in the graph. How would that generalize to 3D?
Also, in your example, there are only 23 vertices, so it is not clear how you could have a polygon with vertex indices 1-12-35-33-25.

What is the time complexity of this algorithm?

Just use for loop and cells since you already know indices of each polygon
s = [1 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 5 6 6 6 8 9 10 10 12 12 13 14 15 16 17 17 18 19 20 21 20 25];
t = [2 8 18 3 4 23 5 21 6 7 8 11 9 10 11 12 14 13 15 18 16 17 18 25 19 20 1 22 24 26];
x = [0.5 0 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 3 3 3 5.5 6 4 6 6 4 3 2 0.5 -1 -2 -1 1.5 4.5 4.5];
y = [0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2 1.5 1 1 1.5 2 1 0.5 0.5 0 -1 -1 -0.5 -1 -1 1 0.5 0.5 -0.5 -0.5 0];
ind = {{1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1}
{6 7 8 9 10 11 6}
{1 8 9 10 12 14 18 1}
{1 18 19 20 1}
{12 13 15 16 17 18 14 12}};
cla
% plot([x(s);x(t)],[y(s);y(t)],'.b')
hold on
for i = 1:length(ind)
ix = cell2mat(ind{i});
plot(x(ix),y(ix),'color',rand(1,3))
end
hold off
axis equal

Here is an example. Any ideas how to remove branches?
See the attached script

Hi Darova, to remove branches I used this:
% Remove branches
xy = [x' y'];
while ~isempty(find(degree(G)==1))
degreeone = find(degree(G)==1);
G = rmnode(G,degreeone);
xy(degreeone,:) = [];
end
About your idea/proposal, it looks cool and promising! Also, a nice animation!
However, is there any way to extrapolate the nodes composing each "cycle"/"polygon" that you were able to isolate ?
Thanks a lot for your efforts!

Hey @Matt J! hope this message finds you well! I am back to my post after a while :-)
... I have a quite silly question..... I was trying to use your function in a loop for, in order to get automatically the number of polygons / cycles.... However, sometimes, it happens that there are not polygons / cycles (i.e. there are only tree-like graphs) to detect, as in this example, which returns an error...
% (1) use the function "spatialgraph2D"
>> obj = spatialgraph2D(SG, SG.Nodes.X, SG.Nodes.Y)
obj =
spatialgraph2D with properties:
G: [1×1 graph]
x: [12×1 double]
y: [12×1 double]
labels: [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12]
pruneType: 'basic'
% (2) plot the graph
>> plot(obj)
% (3) calculate "polyshape" of "obj"
>> pgon = polyshape(obj)
Index in position 1 exceeds array bounds.
Error in spatialgraph2D (line 70)
obj.tol=min(D(2,:))/1000;
Error in spatialgraph2D/pruneBranches (line 253)
obj=spatialgraph2D(Gp,xp,yp,lp);
Error in spatialgraph2D/polyshape (line 98)
obj=pruneBranches(obj);
Is there a way to workaround this error in spatialgraph2D ?
Maybe just giving an empty "pgon" or something, but not an error (otherwise the loop for breaks..) ?
All the best,
Sim
P.S.: Just for a sake of completness.... here following the edge list of my example:
>> obj.G.Edges(:,1)
ans =
11×1 table
EndNodes

Yes, I do the same, copy to the clipboard, delete from the discussion panel and paste it there with my modifications... but I think that the matlab staff already knows it, and I am confident they will fix it soon :-)

@Matt J, any idea on how to solve this small issue ? :)
