Question:
Give an O(n squared)-time algorithm to find the longest monotonically increasing subsequence of a sequence of n numbers.

Answer:
A brute-force approach is enumerate all subsequences of the n numbers and find out a monotonically increasing one with the longest length. This algorithm has a poor exponential running time.
This problem exhibit optimal substructure and overlapping subproblems properties, and is suited for dynamic programming.

Let A denotes the array of n numbers, A[i] is the ith number of the array.
Let P{i,j} denotes problem of finding the longest monotonically increasing subsequence. So the original problem is P{1,n}.
Let S(i,j) denotes the length of longest subsequence of P{i,j}.
Let M(i,j) denotes the largest number in the longest subsequence of P{i,j}. Note for P{i,j}, there may exist several subsequence has the same longest length, M(i,j) should be the smallest one of them.

For P{1,j}, if A[j] is larger than M(1,j-1), then S(1,j) equals S(1,j-1) plus 1. Otherwise, it equals S(1,j-1).
So, we have:
  S(1,j) = S(1,j-1) if A[j] <> M[1,j-1]

The complicated thing in this procedure is how to maintain M's value correctly. The idea is if A[j] is larger than M(1,j-1), M(1,j) should be A[j]. If A[j] is smaller than M(1,j-1), M(1,j) should either be M(1,j-1) or A[j] if A[j] is larger than M(1,x) where S(1,x) is less than S(1,j-1).

This equation yields a n squared running time algorithm.


Correction:

Having done some tests, the preceding algorithm failed for this case: "8 9 1 2 3 4".  

The recursion can be performed another way. Let S(i) denotes the length of the longest subsequence that ended with item A(i). So, the relationship between a problem and its subproblem can be expressed as:

S(i) = max{ S(k)+1 } (k is between 0 and i -1) that all k satisfies A[k] is less than A[i]

And the final result is the largest one of array S.
