String comparison is a critical issue in many application domains, including speech recognition, contents search, and bioinformatics. The similarity between two strings of lengths...
Background: The use of novel algorithmic techniques is pivotal to many important problems in life science. For example the sequencing of the human genome [1] would not have been p...
A new and conceptually simple data structure, called a suffix array, for on-line string searches is introduced in this paper. Constructing and querying suffix arrays is reduced to...
In this paper, we present ScalParC (Scalable Parallel Classifier), a new parallel formulation of a decision tree based classification process. Like other state-of-the-art decision...
This paper introduces a new family of string classifiers based on local relatedness. We use three types of local relatedness measurements, namely, longest common substrings (LCStr&...
