- Task
Provide a function to find the closest two points among a set of given points in two dimensions, i.e. to solve the Closest pair of points problem in the planar case.
The straightforward solution is a O(n2) algorithm (which we can call brute-force algorithm); the pseudo-code (using indexes) could be simply:
bruteForceClosestPair of P(1), P(2), ... P(N) if N < 2 then return ∞ else minDistance ← |P(1) - P(2)| minPoints ← { P(1), P(2) } foreach i ∈ [1, N-1] foreach j ∈ [i+1, N] if |P(i) - P(j)| < minDistance then minDistance ← |P(i) - P(j)| minPoints ← { P(i), P(j) } endif endfor endfor return minDistance, minPoints endif
A better algorithm is based on the recursive divide&conquer approach, as explained also at Wikipedia's Closest pair of points problem, which is O(n log n); a pseudo-code could be:
closestPair of (xP, yP) where xP is P(1) .. P(N) sorted by x coordinate, and yP is P(1) .. P(N) sorted by y coordinate (ascending order) if N ≤ 3 then return closest points of xP using brute-force algorithm else xL ← points of xP from 1 to ⌈N/2⌉ xR ← points of xP from ⌈N/2⌉+1 to N xm ← xP(⌈N/2⌉)x yL ← { p ∈ yP : px ≤ xm } yR ← { p ∈ yP : px > xm } (dL, pairL) ← closestPair of (xL, yL) (dR, pairR) ← closestPair of (xR, yR) (dmin, pairMin) ← (dR, pairR) if dL < dR then (dmin, pairMin) ← (dL, pairL) endif yS ← { p ∈ yP : |xm - px| < dmin } nS ← number of points in yS (closest, closestPair) ← (dmin, pairMin) for i from 1 to nS - 1 k ← i + 1 while k ≤ nS and yS(k)y - yS(i)y < dmin if |yS(k) - yS(i)| < closest then (closest, closestPair) ← (|yS(k) - yS(i)|, {yS(k), yS(i)}) endif k ← k + 1 endwhile endfor return closest, closestPair endif

We provide a small helper class for distance comparisons:

P2 = p2;

public readonly PointF P1;
public readonly PointF P2;
public float Length()

public float LengthSquared()
{
return (P1.X - P2.X) * (P1.X - P2.X)
+ (P1.Y - P2.Y) * (P1.Y - P2.Y);

Brute force:

.Select( j => new Segment( points[i], points[j] )))
.OrderBy( seg => seg.LengthSquared())
.First();
return result;
}
And divide-and-conquer.
public static Segment MyClosestDivide(List<PointF> points)
{
return MyClosestRec(points.OrderBy(p => p.X).ToList());
}
private static Segment MyClosestRec(List<PointF> pointsByX)
{
int count = pointsByX.Count;
if (count <= 4)
return Closest_BruteForce(pointsByX);
// left and right lists sorted by X, as order retained from full list
var leftByX = pointsByX.Take(count/2).ToList();
var leftResult = MyClosestRec(leftByX);
var rightByX = pointsByX.Skip(count/2).ToList();
var rightResult = MyClosestRec(rightByX);
var result = rightResult.Length() < leftResult.Length() ? rightResult : leftResult;
// There may be a shorter distance that crosses the divider
// Thus, extract all the points within result.Length either side
var midX = leftByX.Last().X;
var bandWidth = result.Length();
var inBandByX = pointsByX.Where(p => Math.Abs(midX - p.X) <= bandWidth);
// Sort by Y, so we can efficiently check for closer pairs
var inBandByY = inBandByX.OrderBy(p => p.Y).ToArray();
int iLast = inBandByY.Length - 1;
for (int i = 0; i < iLast; i++ )
{

for (int j = i + 1; j <= iLast; j++)
{

// Comparing each point to successivly increasing Y values
// Thus, can terminate as soon as deltaY is greater than best result

break;
if (Segment.Length(pLower, pUpper) < result.Length())

However, the difference in speed is still remarkable.

Non Linq Brute Force:

{
Trace.Assert(points.Count >= 2);
int count = points.Count;
// Seed the result - doesn't matter what points are used
// This just avoids having to do null checks in the main loop below
var result = new Segment(points[0], points[1]);
var bestLength = result.Length();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
for (int j = i + 1; j < count; j++)
if (Segment.Length(points[i], points[j]) < bestLength)
{
result = new Segment(points[i], points[j]);
bestLength = result.Length();
}
return result;
}
Targeted Search: Much simpler than divide and conquer, and actually runs faster for the random points. Key optimization is that if the distance along the X axis is greater than the best total length you already have, you can terminate the inner loop early. However, as only sorts in the X direction, it degenerates into an N^2 algorithm if all the points have the same X.
Segment Closest(List<PointF> points)
{
Trace.Assert(points.Count >= 2);
int count = points.Count;
points.Sort((lhs, rhs) => lhs.X.CompareTo(rhs.X));
var result = new Segment(points[0], points[1]);
var bestLength = result.Length();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
var from = points[i];
for (int j = i + 1; j < count; j++)
{
var to = points[j];
var dx = to.X - from.X;
if (dx >= bestLength)
{
break;
}
if (Segment.Length(from, to) < bestLength)
{
result = new Segment(from, to);
bestLength = result.Length();

# takes two-column object(x,y-values), or creates such an object from x and y values

The brute force algorithm is easy. Reading from left to right, clop is defined as a function that forms the Cartesian product of its argument, and then extracts the member whose left side is a minimum with respect to the floating point comparison relation after deleting equal pairs and attaching to the left of each remaining pair the sum of the squares of the differences between corresponding coordinates.
#import flo
clop = @iiK0 fleq$-&l+ *EZF ^\~& plus+ sqr~~+ minus~~bbI
The divide and conquer algorithm following the specification
given above is a little more hairy but not much longer.
The eudist
library function
is used to compute the distance between points.
