Approximating pairwise, or k-wise, independence with sublinear memory is of considerable importance in the data stream model. In the streaming model the joint distribution is give...
Many applications need to solve the following problem of approximate string matching: from a collection of strings, how to find those similar to a given string, or the strings in ...
Detecting approximate symmetries of parts of a model is important when attempting to determine the geometric design intent of approximate boundary-representation (B-rep) solid mod...
We study the novel problem of efficiently computing the update distance for a pair of relational databases. In analogy to the edit distance of strings, we define the update distan...
A classical measure of similarity between strings is the length of the longest common subsequence(LCS) between the two given strings. The search for efficient algorithms for findi...
