Description
The main characteristics are:
-
Process is done only on edges with positive costs.
-
A negative value on a cost column is interpreted as the edge does not exist.
-
-
Values are returned when there is a path.
-
When there is no path:
-
When the starting vertex and ending vertex are the same.
-
The aggregate cost of the non included values \((v, v)\) is \(0\)
-
-
When the starting vertex and ending vertex are the different and there is no path:
-
The aggregate cost the non included values \((u, v)\) is \(\infty\)
-
-
-
For optimization purposes, any duplicated value in the starting vertices or on the ending vertices are ignored.
-
Running time (worse case scenario): \(O((V \log V + E))\)
-
For large graphs where there is a path bewtween the starting vertex and ending vertex:
-
It is expected to terminate faster than pgr_dijkstra
