What is shortest path tree problem?
In the shortest path tree problem, we start with a source node s. For any other node v in graph G, the shortest path between s and v is a path such that the total weight of the edges along this path is minimized.
Which algorithm is used to find shortest path problem?
Dijkstra’s Algorithm finds the shortest path between a given node (which is called the “source node”) and all other nodes in a graph.
Is the shortest path problem NP?
The length of a simple st path U is the sum of the weights of the edges on U but edges with f(e)=f(e’) are counted only once. The problem is to determine a shortest such st path….The Shortest Path Problem with Edge Information Reuse is NP-Complete.

How do you find DFS on a graph?
Depth First Search (DFS)
- Start by putting any one of the graph’s vertices on top of a stack.
- Take the top item of the stack and add it to the visited list.
- Create a list of that vertex’s adjacent nodes.
- Keep repeating steps 2 and 3 until the stack is empty.
How do I find the shortest path in BFS?
And so, the only possible way for BFS (or DFS) to find the shortest path in a weighted graph is to search the entire graph and keep recording the minimum distance from source to the destination vertex.
How do I use BFS to find shortest path?
How do you find the shortest path in DFS?
- Breadth First Search or BFS for a Graph.
- Depth First Search or DFS for a Graph.
- Applications of Depth First Search.
- Applications of Breadth First Traversal.
- Count the number of nodes at given level in a tree using BFS.
- Count all possible paths between two vertices.
- BFS using STL for competitive coding.
What is DFS and example?
Depth First Search (DFS) algorithm traverses a graph in a depthward motion and uses a stack to remember to get the next vertex to start a search, when a dead end occurs in any iteration. As in the example given above, DFS algorithm traverses from S to A to D to G to E to B first, then to F and lastly to C.
What is the main purpose of MST?
MST allows you to build multiple spanning trees over trunks. You can group and associate VLANs to spanning tree instances. Each instance can have a topology independent of other spanning tree instances. This architecture provides multiple forwarding paths for data traffic and enables load balancing.
How is MST different from shortest path?
If there are N vertices are present inside graph G then the minimum spanning tree of the graph will contain N-1 edges and N vertices. If there are N vertices present inside graph G, then in the shortest path between two vertices there can be at most N-1 edges, and at most N vertices can be present in the shortest path.
Can we use DFS for shortest path?
A) Dfs also can solve shortest path (also, smallest weighted path). The only cons would be the exponential time complexity arising from multiple edges revisiting already visited nodes.
Why is Dijkstra better than BFS?
If you consider travel websites, these use Dijkstra’s algorithm because of weights (distances) on nodes. If you will consider the same distance between all nodes, then BFS is the better choice. For example, consider A -> (B, C) -> (F) with edge weights given by A->B = 10, A->C = 20, B->F = C->F = 5.
