1473 - Paint House III.

Hard

There is a row of m houses in a small city, each house must be painted with one of the n colors (labeled from 1 to n), some houses that have been painted last summer should not be painted again.

A neighborhood is a maximal group of continuous houses that are painted with the same color.

  • For example: houses = [1,2,2,3,3,2,1,1] contains 5 neighborhoods [{1}, {2,2}, {3,3}, {2}, {1,1}].

Given an array houses, an m x n matrix cost and an integer target where:

  • houses[i]: is the color of the house i, and 0 if the house is not painted yet.
  • cost[i][j]: is the cost of paint the house i with the color j + 1.

Return the minimum cost of painting all the remaining houses in such a way that there are exactly target neighborhoods. If it is not possible, return -1.

Example 1:

Input: houses = [0,0,0,0,0], cost = [[1,10],[10,1],[10,1],[1,10],[5,1]], m = 5, n = 2, target = 3

Output: 9

Explanation: Paint houses of this way [1,2,2,1,1]

This array contains target = 3 neighborhoods, [{1}, {2,2}, {1,1}].

Cost of paint all houses (1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 5) = 9.

Example 2:

Input: houses = [0,2,1,2,0], cost = [[1,10],[10,1],[10,1],[1,10],[5,1]], m = 5, n = 2, target = 3

Output: 11

Explanation: Some houses are already painted, Paint the houses of this way [2,2,1,2,2]

This array contains target = 3 neighborhoods, [{2,2}, {1}, {2,2}].

Cost of paint the first and last house (10 + 1) = 11.

Example 3:

Input: houses = [3,1,2,3], cost = [[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1]], m = 4, n = 3, target = 3

Output: -1

Explanation: Houses are already painted with a total of 4 neighborhoods [{3},{1},{2},{3}] different of target = 3.

Constraints:

  • m == houses.length == cost.length
  • n == cost[i].length
  • 1 <= m <= 100
  • 1 <= n <= 20
  • 1 <= target <= m
  • 0 <= houses[i] <= n
  • 1 <= cost[i][j] <= 104
