Description
Given a string s, find the longest palindromic subsequence's length in s. You may assume that the maximum length of s is 1000.
Example 1:
Input:
"bbbab"
Output:
4
One possible longest palindromic subsequence is "bbbb".
Example 2:
Input:
"cbbd"
Output:
2
One possible longest palindromic subsequence is "bb".
Solution
DP, O(n ^ 2), S(n ^ 2)
dp[i][j]: the longest palindromic subsequence's length of substring(i, j)
State transition:
dp[i][j] = dp[i+1][j-1] + 2 if s.charAt(i) == s.charAt(j)
otherwise, dp[i][j] = Math.max(dp[i+1][j], dp[i][j-1])
Initialization: dp[i][i] = 1
public class Solution {
public int longestPalindromeSubseq(String s) {
int len = s.length();
int[][] dp = new int[len][len];
for (int i = len - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
dp[i][i] = 1;
for (int j = i + 1; j < len; ++j) {
if (s.charAt(i) == s.charAt(j)) {
dp[i][j] = dp[i + 1][j - 1] + 2;
} else {
dp[i][j] = Math.max(dp[i + 1][j], dp[i][j - 1]);
}
}
}
return dp[0][len - 1];
}
}
