Approximate string matching is an important paradigm in domains ranging from speech recognition to information retrieval and molecular biology. In this paper, we introduce a new f...
We present a new indexing method for the approximate string matching problem. The method is based on a su x tree combined with a partitioning of the pattern. We analyze the resulti...
— An approximate string query is to find from a collection of strings those that are similar to a given query string. Answering such queries is important in many applications su...
Top-k approximate querying on string collections is an important data analysis tool for many applications, and it has been exhaustively studied. However, the scale of the problem ...
This paper describes a method for optimizing the cost matrix of any approximate string matching algorithm based on the Levenshtein distance. The method, which uses genetic algorit...
