花花酱 LeetCode 1292. Maximum Side Length of a Square with Sum Less than or Equal to Threshold

Given a m x n matrix mat and an integer threshold. Return the maximum side-length of a square with a sum less than or equal to threshold or return 0 if there is no such square.

Example 1:

Input: mat = [[1,1,3,2,4,3,2],[1,1,3,2,4,3,2],[1,1,3,2,4,3,2]], threshold = 4
Output: 2
Explanation: The maximum side length of square with sum less than 4 is 2 as shown.

Example 2:

Input: mat = [[2,2,2,2,2],[2,2,2,2,2],[2,2,2,2,2],[2,2,2,2,2],[2,2,2,2,2]], threshold = 1
Output: 0

Example 3:

Input: mat = [[1,1,1,1],[1,0,0,0],[1,0,0,0],[1,0,0,0]], threshold = 6
Output: 3

Example 4:

Input: mat = [[18,70],[61,1],[25,85],[14,40],[11,96],[97,96],[63,45]], threshold = 40184
Output: 2

Constraints:

• 1 <= m, n <= 300
• m == mat.length
• n == mat[i].length
• 0 <= mat[i][j] <= 10000
• 0 <= threshold <= 10^5

Solution: DP + Brute Force

Precompute the sums of sub-matrixes whose left-top corner is at (0,0).

Try all possible left-top corner and sizes.

Time complexity: O(m*n*min(m,n))
Space complexity: O(m*n)

Solution 2: Binary Search

Search for the smallest size k that is greater than the threshold, ans = k – 1.

Solution 3: Bounded Search

Time complexity: O(m*n + min(m,n))
