For every string inclusion relation there are two optimization problems: find a longest string included in every string of a given finite language, and find a shortest string in...
— We consider the approximate string membership checking (ASMC) problem of extracting all the strings or substrings in a document that approximately match some string in a given ...
Given a set of strings S of equal lengths over an alphabet Σ, the closest string problem seeks a string over Σ whose maximum Hamming distance to any of the given strings is as s...
We report (to our knowledge) the first evaluation of Constraint Satisfaction as a computational framework for solving closest string problems. We show that careful consideration o...
We resolve two open problems presented in [8]. First, we consider the problem of reconstructing an unknown string T over a fixed alphabet using queries of the form “does the st...
