Abstract. The edit distance between strings A and B is defined as the minimum number of edit operations needed in converting A into B or vice versa. Typically the allowed edit oper...
We introduce the notion of conservative edit distance and mapping between two RNA stem-loops. We show that unlike the general edit distance between RNA secondary structures, the co...
In this paper, we develop and discuss several distance measures for permutation type representations of solutions of combinatorial optimisation problems. The problems discussed in...
It is widely accepted that the optimal alignment between a pair of proteins or nucleic acid sequences that minimizes the edit distance may not necessarily re

Edit distance matching has been used in literature for word spotting with characters taken as primitives. The recognition rate however, is limited by the segmentation inconsistenci...
