I'm trying to understand what the shortest bitonic path means. Could you explain it to me in simple terms, please?

This path, from vertex s to vertex t, possesses a unique characteristic: an intermediate vertex v.

The weights of the edges on the path from s to v follow a strictly increasing pattern, adding an interesting dimension to the path's construction.

Conversely, the edges from v to t exhibit a strictly decreasing trend in their weights, creating a 'bitonic' or 'V-shaped' pattern when visualized.

The algorithm's goal is to identify such a path that adheres to these strict conditions on edge weights, ensuring both an ascending and descending sequence of weights along distinct segments.

The Bitonic shortest-path algorithm is an efficient method for finding a specific type of path between two vertices in a weighted graph.
