Find shortest path linked with Dijkstra’s Algorithm?


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, just wondering what algorithms the find shortest path node uses to calculate the shortest path, Ive been looking around but I can't figure out whether it's A/* or Dijkstra’s Algorithm

It’s safest to treat Find Shortest Path SOP as a Dijkstra-style weighted shortest-path solver. Houdini’s docs describe shortest-path computation in terms of running Dijkstra’s algorithm (for shortest paths on a graph), and the Find Shortest Path SOP is exactly “shortest paths along mesh edges with customizable costs.”
