Count positions in Binary Matrix having equal count of set bits in corresponding row and column

Given a boolean matrix mat[][] of size M * N, the task is to print the count of indices from the matrix whose corresponding row and column contain an equal number of set bits.

Examples:

Input; mat[][] = {{0, 1}, {1, 1}}
Output: 2
Explanation:
Position (0, 0) contains 1 set bit in corresponding row {(0, 0), (0, 1)} and column {(0, 0), (1, 0)}.
Position (1, 1) contains 2 set bits in corresponding row {(1, 0), (1, 1)} and column {(0, 1), (1, 1)}.

Input: mat[][] = {{0, 1, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 1, 0}}
Output: 5

Naive Approach: The simplest approach to solve is to count and store the number of set bits present in the elements of each row and column of the given matrix. Then, traverse the matrix and for each position, check if the count of set bits of both the row and column is equal or not. For every index for which the above condition is found to be true, increment count. Print the final value of count after complete traversal of the matrix.

Time Complexity: O(N²)
Auxiliary Space: O(N²)

Efficient Approach: To optimize the above approach, follow the steps below:

Initialize two temporary arrays row[] and col[] of sizes N and M respectively.
Traverse the matrix mat[][]. Check for every index (i, j), if mat[i][j] is equal to 1 or not. If found to be true, increment row[i] and col[j] by 1.
Traverse the matrix mat[][] again. Check for every index (i, j), if row[i] and col[j] are equal or not. If found to be true, increment count.
Print the final value of count.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++14

// C++14 program to implement
// above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the count of indices in
// from the given binary matrix having equal
// count of set bits in its row and column
int countPosition(vector<vector<int>> mat)
{
    int n = mat.size();
    int m = mat[0].size();
 
    // Stores count of set bits in
    // coressponding column and row
    vector<int> row(n);
    vector<int> col(m);
 
    // Traverse matrix
    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++) 
    {
        for(int j = 0; j < m; j++) 
        {
             
            // Since 1 contains a set bit
            if (mat[i][j] == 1) 
            {
                 
                // Update count of set bits
                // for current row and col
                col[j]++;
                row[i]++;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Stores the count of
    // required indices
    int count = 0;
 
    // Traverse matrix
    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++) 
    {
        for(int j = 0; j < m; j++)
        {
             
            // If current row and column
            // has equal count of set bits
            if (row[i] == col[j]) 
            {
                count++;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Return count of
    // required position
    return count;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    vector<vector<int>> mat = { { 0, 1 },
                                { 1, 1 } };
 
    cout << (countPosition(mat));
}
