Given a binary matrix mat[][] of size M * N and Q queries of the form {pi, pj, qi, qj}, the task for each query is to count the number of 0s in the submatrix from the cell (pi, pj) to (qi, qj).
Examples:
Input: mat[][] = {{0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1}, {1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1}, {0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1}, {1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1 }}, Q[] = {{0, 1, 3, 2}, {2, 2, 4, 5}, {4, 3, 5, 6}}
Output: 3 4 2
Explanation:
The submatrix from indices (0, 1) to (3, 2) contains 3 0s.
The submatrix from indices (2, 2) to (4, 5) contains 4 0s.
The submatrix from indices (4, 3) to (5, 6) contains 2 0s.Input: mat[][] = {{0, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 1}}, Q[] = {{0, 0, 2, 2}}
Output: 3
Naive Approach: The simplest approach to solve the problem is to count the number of 0s for each query by iterating the submatrix and print the count for each query.
Time Complexity: O(M*N*Q)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
Efficient Approach: To optimize the above approach, the idea is to preprocess the given matrix mat[][]. Create a count matrix, say prefixCnt[M][N], such that prefix_cnt[i][j] stores the count of 0s in the submatrix within indices (0, 0) to (i, j). Follow the steps below to compute prefixCnt[][]:
- Initialize prefixCnt[i][j] with 1 if mat[i][j] is 0. Otherwise, initialize with 0.
- Find the prefix sum for each row and column and update the matrix accordingly.
Once, matrix prefixCnt[][] is computed the count of 0s in any sub-matrix can be evaluated in O(1) time. Below is the expression to count the 0s in each submatrix from (pi, pj) to (qi, qj) can be calculated by:
cnt = prefixCnt[qi][qj] - prefixCnt[pi-1][qj] - prefixCnt[qi][pj - 1] + prefixCnt[pi - 1][pj - 1]
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
#define M 6
#define N 7
// Function to compute the matrix
// prefixCnt[M][N] from mat[M][N] such
// that prefixCnt[i][j] stores the
// count of 0's from (0, 0) to (i, j)
void preCompute(int mat[M][N],
int prefixCnt[M][N])
{
for (int i = 0; i < M; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < N; j++) {
// Initialize prefixCnt[i][j]
// with 1 if mat[i][j] is 0
if (mat[i][j] == 0) {
prefixCnt[i][j] = 1;
}
// Otherwise, assign with 0
else {
prefixCnt[i][j] = 0;
}
}
}
// Calculate prefix sum for each row
for (int i = 0; i < M; i++)
for (int j = 1; j < N; j++)
prefixCnt[i][j] += prefixCnt[i][j - 1];
// Calculate prefix sum for each column
for (int i = 1; i < M; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < N; j++)
prefixCnt[i][j] += prefixCnt[i - 1][j];
}

// (qi, qj) from prefixCnt[M][N]

int qi, int qj)
{
// Initialize that count of 0's

// indices (0, 0) to (qi, qj)
int cnt = prefixCnt[qi][qj];
// Subtract count of 0's within
// indices (0, 0) and (pi-1, qj)
if (pi > 0)
cnt -= prefixCnt[pi - 1][qj];
// Subtract count of 0's within
// indices (0, 0) and (qi, pj-1)
if (pj > 0)
cnt -= prefixCnt[qi][pj - 1];
// Add prefixCnt[pi - 1][pj - 1]
// because its value has been added
// once but subtracted twice
if (pi > 0 && pj > 0)
cnt += prefixCnt[pi - 1][pj - 1];
return cnt;
