H-Index

Given an array of citations (each citation is a non-negative integer) of a researcher, write a function to compute the researcher’s h-index.

According to the definition of h-index on Wikipedia: “A scientist has index h if h of his/her N papers have at least h citations each, and the other N − h papers have no more than h citations each.”

For example, given citations = [3, 0, 6, 1, 5], which means the researcher has 5 papers in total and each of them had received 3, 0, 6, 1, 5 citations respectively. Since the researcher has 3 papers with at least 3 citations each and the remaining two with no more than 3 citations each, his h-index is 3.

Note: If there are several possible values for h, the maximum one is taken as the h-index.

解法1:

要注意h的范围是在[0, N]之间。
只需要用一个array记录每一个数字出现的次数,对于数字大于等于N的记录在N
最后从后往前,累加所有的次数,当count >= i的时候说明就是我们要求的h-index

public class Solution {
public int hIndex(int[] citations) {
if (citations == null || citations.length == 0) {
return 0;
}
Arrays.sort(citations);
int max = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < citations.length; i++) {
int curr = Math.min(citations[i], citations.length - i); // [1,4,5]
max = Math.max(max, curr);
}
return max;
}
}

解法2: Bucket Sort的思想

目标是找寻一个数i,使得比他引用次数多的paper的数量(包括和他一样的)要比i大就可以。统计每一个citation次数出现的次数,然后从大到小找到第一个满足条件的数字就可以了。
