In-memory hash tables provide fast access to large numbers of strings, with less space overhead than sorted structures such as tries and binary trees. If chains are used for collis...
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...
We consider the problem of finding pairs of short patterns such that, in a given input sequence of length n, the distance between each pair’s patterns is at least α. The proble...
Abstract. We introduce a new data structure, called MiGaL for “Multiple Graph Layers”, that is composed of various graphs linked together ions of abstraction/refinement. The n...
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...
