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 \(\infty\)
- When the starting vertex and ending vertex are the same.
- 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
