290. Word Pattern

Description

Given a pattern and a string s, find if s follows the same pattern.

Here follow means a full match, such that there is a bijection between a letter in pattern and a non-empty word in s. Specifically:

Each letter in pattern maps to exactly one unique word in s.
Each unique word in s maps to exactly one letter in pattern.
No two letters map to the same word, and no two words map to the same letter.

Example 1:

Input: pattern = "abba", s = "dog cat cat dog"

Output: true

Explanation:

The bijection can be established as:

'a' maps to "dog".
'b' maps to "cat".

Example 2:

Input: pattern = "abba", s = "dog cat cat fish"

Output: false

Example 3:

Input: pattern = "aaaa", s = "dog cat cat dog"

Output: false

Constraints:

1 <= pattern.length <= 300
pattern contains only lower-case English letters.
1 <= s.length <= 3000
s contains only lowercase English letters and spaces ' '.
s does not contain any leading or trailing spaces.
All the words in s are separated by a single space.

Solutions

Solution 1: Hash Table

First, we split the string $s$ into a word array $ws$ with spaces. If the length of $pattern$ and $ws$ is not equal, return false directly. Otherwise, we use two hash tables $d_1$ and $d_2$ to record the correspondence between each character and word in $pattern$ and $ws$.

Then, we traverse $pattern$ and $ws$. For each character $a$ and word $b$, if there is a mapping for $a$ in $d_1$, and the mapped word is not $b$, or there is a mapping for $b$ in $d_2$, and the mapped character is not $a$, return false. Otherwise, we add the mapping of $a$ and $b$ to $d_1$ and $d_2$ respectively.

After the traversal, return true.

The time complexity is $O(m + n)$ and the space complexity is $O(m + n)$. Here $m$ and $n$ are the length of $pattern$ and string $s$.
