Computer Science Homework

1. Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to implement sorting algorithms for the autocomplete application. 2. 2.Description

Write a program to implement autocomplete for a given set of N terms, where a term is a query string and an associated nonnegative weight. That is, given a prefix, find all queries that start with the given prefix, in descending order of weight.

Autocomplete is pervasive in modern applications. As the user types, the program predicts the complete query (typically a word or phrase) that the user intends to type. Autocomplete is most effective when there are a limited number of likely queries. For example, the Internet Movie Database uses it to display the names of movies as the user types; search engines use it to display suggestions as the user enters web search queries; cell phones use it to speed up text input.

2. Description

Write a program to implement autocomplete for a given set of N terms, where a term

is a query string and an associated nonnegative weight. That is, given a prefix, find all

queries that start with the given prefix, in descending order of weight.

Autocomplete is pervasive in modern applications. As the user types, the program

predicts the complete query (typically a word or phrase) that the user intends to type.

Autocomplete is most effective when there are a limited number of likely queries. For

example, the Internet Movie Database uses it to display the names of movies as the

user types; search engines use it to display suggestions as the user enters web search

queries; cell phones use it to speed up text input.

In these examples, the application predicts how likely it is that the user is typing each

query and presents to the user a list of the top-matching queries, in descending order

of weight. These weights are determined by historical data, such as box office revenue

for movies, frequencies of search queries from other Google users, or the typing

history of a cell phone user. For the purposes of this assignment, you will have access

to a set of all possible queries and associated weights (and these queries and weights

will not change).

The performance of autocomplete functionality is critical in many systems. For

example, consider a search engine which runs an autocomplete application on a server

2

farm. According to one study, the application has only about 50ms to return a list of

suggestions for it to be useful to the user. Moreover, in principle, it must perform this

computation for every keystroke typed into the search bar and for every user!

In this assignment, you will implement autocomplete by sorting the terms by query

string (with running time O(N log N) in sorting, or even better, where N is the of

terms); binary searching to find all query strings that start with a given prefix (with

running time O(log N)); and sorting the matching terms by weight (with running time

O(M log M) in sorting, where M is the number of matching terms). Finally display

results for the user. The following shows the top seven queries (city names) that start

with AI M with weights equal to their populations.

2.1. Part 1: autocomplete term (60 pts)

Write an immutable data type Term.java that represents an autocomplete term: a query

string and an associated integer weight. You must implement the following API,

which supports comparing terms by three different orders: lexicographic order by

query string (the natural order); in descending order by weight (an alternate order);

and lexicographic order by query string but using only the first r characters (a family

of alternate orderings). The last order may seem a bit odd, but you will use it in Part

3 to find all query strings that start with a given prefix (of length r).

public class Term implements Comparable {

/* Initializes a term with the given query string and weight. */

public Term(String query, long weight)

/* Compares the two terms in descending order by weight. */

public static Comparator byReverseWeightOrder()

/* Compares the two terms in lexicographic order but using only the first

r characters of each query. */

public static Comparator byPrefixOrder(int r)

/* Compares the two terms in lexicographic order by query. */

public int compareTo(Term that)

3

3

// Returns a string representation of this term in the following format:

// weight (i.e., ??.toString()), followed by a tab, followed by query.

public String toString()

}

Corner cases. The constructor should throw

a java.lang.NullPointerException if query is null and

a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if weight is negative.

The byPrefixOrder() method should throw

a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if r is negative.

Performance requirements. The string comparison functions should take time

proportional to the number of characters needed to resolve the comparison.

2.2. Part 2: binary search (30 pts)

When binary searching a sorted array that contains more than one key equal to the

search key, the client may want to know the index of either the first or the last such

key. Accordingly, implement the following API:

public class BinarySearchDeluxe {

/* Returns the index of the first key in a[] that equals the search key,

or -1 if no such key. */

public static int firstIndexOf(Key[] a, Key key, Comparator

comparator)

/* Returns the index of the last key in a[] that equals the search key,

or -1 if no such key. */

public static int lastIndexOf(Key[] a, Key key, Comparator

comparator)

}

Corner cases. Each static method should throw a java.lang.NullPointerException if

any of its arguments is null. You should assume that the argument array is in sorted

order (with respect to the supplied comparator).

Performance requirements. The firstIndexOf() and lastIndexOf() methods should

make at most 1 + ⌈log2 N⌉ compares in the worst case, where N is the length of the

array. In this context, a compare is one call to comparator.compare().

2.3. Part 3: autocomplete (70 pts)

In this part, you will implement a data type that provides autocomplete functionality

for a given set of string and weights, using Term and BinarySearchDeluxe. To do

so, sort the terms in lexicographic order; use binary search to find the all query strings

4

that start with a given prefix; and sort the matching terms in descending order by

weight. Organize your program by creating an data type Autocomplete with the

following API:

public class Autocomplete { // implement sorting algorithm in this class

/* Initializes the data structure from the given array of terms. */

public Autocomplete(Term[] terms)

/* Returns all terms that start with the given prefix, in descending

order of weight. */

public Term[] allMatches(String prefix)

}

Corner cases. The constructor should throw a java.lang.NullPointerException if its

argument is null or if any of the entries in its argument array are null. Each method

should throw a java.lang.NullPointerException if its argument is null.

Performance requirements. The constructor should make proportional

to N log N compares (or better) in the worst case, where N is the number of terms.

The allMatches() method should make proportional to log N + M log M compares (or

better) in the worst case, where M is the number of matching terms. In this context,

a compare is one call to any of the compare()or compareTo() methods defined in Term.

2.4. Input format for testing (30 pts)

We provide a number of sample input files for testing. Each file consists of an

integer N followed by N pairs of query strings and nonnegative weights. There is one

pair per line, with the weight and string separated by a tab. A weight can be any

integer between 0 and 2^63 − 1. A query string can be an arbitrary sequence of

Unicode characters, including spaces (but not newlines).

• The file wiktionary.txt contains the 10,000 most common words in Project

Gutenberg, with weights proportional to their frequencies.

• The file cities.txt contains over 90,000 cities, with weights equal to their

populations.

Below is a sample client that takes the name of an input file and an integer k as

command-line arguments. It reads the data from the file; then it repeatedly reads

autocomplete queries from standard input, and prints out the top k matching terms in

descending order of weight. public static void main(String[] args) {

// read in the terms from a file

String filename = args[0]; // first argument from command line

In in = new In(filename);

int N = in.readInt();

Term[] terms = new Term[N];

for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {

long weight = in.readLong(); // read the next weight

in.readChar(); // scan past the tab

String query = in.readLine(); // read the next query

terms[i] = new Term(query, weight); // construct the term

}

// read in queries from standard input and print the top k matching terms

int k = Integer.parseInt(args[1]); // 2nd argument from command line

Autocomplete autocomplete = new Autocomplete(terms);

while (StdIn.hasNextLine()) {

String prefix = StdIn.readLine();

Term[] results = autocomplete.allMatches(prefix);

for (int i = 0; i < Math.min(k, results.length); i++)

System.out.println(results[i]);

}

Interactive GUI (optional, but fun and no extra work): Compile AutocompleteGUI.java. The program takes the name of a file and an

integer k as command-line arguments and provides a GUI for the user to enter queries.

It presents the top k matching terms in real time. When the user selects a term, the

GUI opens up the results from a Google search for that term in a browser.
