      I think he's still working on it...
      Seriously going to a university for anything computer related is a joke. Most (not all) professors are stuck in the 80s/90s. For DB class I had to write a PHP app that talks to a DB. Ignoring the fact that I had to learn PHP, which is a travesty in its own right, The professor required us to print the code out and submit it. 100s of pages of code. I'm sure he didn't read it considering how fast he graded it and how many students he had. I would have learned so much and been better prepared for the workforce if he had us submit a GitHub repo. I graduated with a Masters in Software Engineering having never used Git, and every single job I've ever had uses Git. But I sure knew how to write a class in Java that handles fractions, having written that program for 3 different courses.

      You need to know the why behind the algorithm and not just the how. This video is great for a quick overview/review, but to really understand the algorithm you need to spend much more time understanding why the code does what it does.

      I may be the wrong one here, but your explanation seems utterly insufficient (similar trend in your other videos), where you just show walkthrough of the algorithm with specific data, but do not really explain what different part means. For instance, here you did not explain what does that condition mean, why do we perform this test.
      All you needed to say at the beginning is that the algorithm is just repeatedly testing triangle inequality in conjunction with Bellman optimality principle (shortest paths are composed out of shortest paths).

      @MichaelSambol  8 лет назад +6

    • @gabrielchu5798
      @gabrielchu5798 8 лет назад +7

      I think I get it! But it's just very confusing, it is called Bellman-Ford, ie, slide 14 courses.csail.mit.edu/6.006/spring11/lectures/lec15.pdf, runs on negative cycles (with detection), but can never output the shortest paths when there are negative cycles...

    • @MichaelSambol
      @MichaelSambol  8 лет назад +17

      Right! You can detect negative cycles, but a shortest path doesn't exist.

    • @laurenbouhnik
      @laurenbouhnik 7 лет назад +1

      Correct me if i'm wrong, but you can detect infinite negative cycles in Bellman-Ford if you simply use the n'th iteration to see if anything has changed. Since it's supposed to run n-1 times, a change in the n'th iteration will indicate an infinite loop :)

    • @DarkFalconDF
      @DarkFalconDF 6 лет назад

      I know it been 11 months, but if someone want that answered:
      Yes, you can do that.
      Other way of verifying the negative cycles is:
      After the algorithm of Bellman-Ford is called, you need to verify all the edges:
      uv = edge.
      u = origin
      v = destiny
      dist = distance from origin
      if (v.dist > uv.weight + u.dist) -> there is a negative cycle.

      no becouse dist 2 to 3 was faund that shortest path is via 1 where it produces 2 via 1 to 3 = 2 not 3 thats why its stored in the matrix not the graph
      if you revert back video this value was updated elier in video , this is why we looking total leess weight path , not less weight path via only one node

    What through me off for a bit is i, j, k starting at 1 is because the graph/vertices start at 1.
    if you're using indices or the lowest node is 0 or another number, then it needs to start at a different number.

    You should probably mention how that three-loop formula is derived. And how this solution is actually a dynamic programming solution i.e. For each vertex k, we test whether it serves as a faster intermediary to two other nodes i and j. So dist[i][j] = min(dist[i][j], dist[i][k] +dist[k][j] ) or if k=1, i=2 and j=3, the formula asks, can we reach j from i faster using k as an intermediary.
