The '''Hoshen–Kopelman algorithm''' is a simple and efficient [[algorithm]] for labeling [[Cluster analysis|clusters]] on a grid
== Percolation theory ==
[[Percolation theory]] is the study of the behavior and [[statistics]] of [[cluster analysis|clusters]] on [[Lattice graph|lattices]]. Suppose we have a large square lattice where each cell can be occupied with the [[probability]]

== Hoshen–Kopelman algorithm for cluster finding ==
In this algorithm, we scan through a grid looking for occupied cells and labeling them with cluster labels. The scanning process is called a [[raster scan]]. The algorithm begins with scanning the grid cell by cell and

On the other hand, if the current cell has no neighbors, it is assigned a new, previously unused, label. The entire grid is processed in this way.
Following [[pseudocode]] is referred from [https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~fricke/ Tobin Fricke's] implementation of the same algorithm.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~fricke/projects/hoshenkopelman/hoshenkopelman.html |title=The Hoshen-Kopelman Algorithm for cluster identification|first=Tobin |last=Fricke |website=ocf.berkeley.edu |date=2004-04-21 |access-date=2016-09-17}}</ref> On completion, the cluster labels may be found in <code>labels</code>. Not shown is the second raster scan of the grid needed to produce the example output. In that scan, the value at <code>label[x,y]</code> is replaced by <code>find(label[x,y])</code>.

Consider the following example. The dark cells in the grid in
The algorithm processes the input grid, cell by cell, as follows: Let's say that grid is a two-dimensional array.
Line 73 ⟶ 80:
* <code>grid[0][3]</code> is occupied so check cell to the left which is unoccupied so we increment the current label value and assign the label to the cell as <code>2</code>.
* <code>grid[0][4]</code>, <code>grid[0][5]</code> and <code>grid[1][0]</code> are unoccupied so they are not labeled.
* <code>grid[1][1]</code> is occupied so check cell to the left and above, both the cells are unoccupied so assign a new label <code>3</code>.
* <code>grid[1][2]</code> is occupied so check cell to the left and above, only the cell to the left is occupied so assign the label of a cell on the left to this cell <code>3</code>.
* <code>grid[1][3]</code> is occupied so check cell to the left and above, both the cells are occupied, so merge the two clusters and assign the cluster label of the cell above to the cell on the left and to this cell i.e. <code>2</code>. (Merging using union algorithm will label all the cells with label <code>3</code> to <code>2</code>)
* <code>grid[1][4]</code> is occupied so check cell to the left and above, only the cell to the left is occupied so assign the label of a cell on the left to this cell <code>2</code>.
