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...
Given two n-bit (cyclic) binary strings, A and B, represented on a circle (necklace instances). Let each sequence have the same number k of 1’s. We are interested in computing th...
When facing the question of learning languages in realistic settings, one has to tackle several problems that do not admit simple solutions. On the one hand, languages are usually...

The problem of identifying approximately duplicate objects in databases is an essential step for the information integration process. Most existing approaches have relied on gener...
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...
