Computational genomics involves comparing sequences based on “similarity” for detecting evolutionary and functional relationships. Until very recently, available portions of th...
Regular expression pattern matching is widely used in computational biology. Searching through a database of sequences for a motif (a simple regular expression), or its variations...
Genome sequencing opened a new era in genetics allowing the study of genomes at the nucleotide level. However, the chosen method of sequencing produced large numbers of nucleotide...
We address the problem of string matching on Ziv-Lempel compressed text. The goal is to search a pattern in a text without uncompressing it. This is a highly relevant issue to keep...
Abstract We present a fast compression and decompression scheme for natural language texts that allows e cient and exible string matching by searching the compressed text directly....
