Dijkstra's algorithm (/ ˈ d aɪ k s t r ə z / DYKE-strəz) is an algorithm for finding the shortest paths between nodes in a weighted graph, which may represent, for example, a road network. It was conceived by computer scientist Edsger W. Dijkstra in 1956 and published three years later.
A common example of a graph-based pathfinding algorithm is Dijkstra's algorithm. [3] This algorithm begins with a start node and an "open set" of candidate nodes. At each step, the node in the open set with the lowest distance from the start is examined.
A very high-level description of Isomap algorithm is given below. Determine the neighbors of each point. All points in some fixed radius. K nearest neighbors. Construct a neighborhood graph. Each point is connected to other if it is a K nearest neighbor. Edge length equal to Euclidean distance. Compute shortest path between two nodes. Dijkstra ...
Shortest path (A, C, E, D, F), blue, between vertices A and F in the weighted directed graph. In graph theory, the shortest path problem is the problem of finding a path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph such that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized.

From a dynamic programming point of view, Dijkstra's algorithm for the shortest path problem is a successive approximation scheme that solves the dynamic programming functional equation for the shortest path problem by the Reaching method. [8] [9] [10] In fact, Dijkstra's explanation of the logic behind the algorithm, [11] namely Problem 2.
Andrew Goldberg and others explained the correct termination conditions for the bidirectional version of Dijkstra’s Algorithm. [1] As in A* search, bi-directional search can be guided by a heuristic estimate of the remaining distance to the goal (in the forward tree) or from the start (in the backward tree).
The contraction hierarchies (CH) algorithm is a two-phase approach to the shortest path problem consisting of a preprocessing phase and a query phase.As road networks change rather infrequently, more time (seconds to hours) can be used to once precompute some calculations before queries are to be answered.
