Given a pattern $P$ and a text $T$, both strings over a binary alphabet, the binary jumbled string matching problem consists in telling whether any permutation of $P$ occurs in $T$. The indexed version of this problem, i.e., preprocessing a…

Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a collection of $D$ documents, which are strings over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, of total length $n$. We describe a data structure that uses linear space and and reports $k$ most relevant documents that contain a…

In a \emph{weighted sequence}, for every position of the sequence and every letter of the alphabet a probability of occurrence of this letter at this position is specified. Weighted sequences are commonly used to represent imprecise or…

The problem of storing a set of strings --- a string dictionary --- in compact form appears naturally in many cases. While classically it has represented a small part of the whole data to be processed (e.g., for Natural Language processing…

Neural networks using numerous text data have been successfully applied to a variety of tasks. While massive text data is usually compressed using techniques such as grammar compression, almost all of the previous machine learning methods…

We present a compressed data structure to store free trajectories of moving objects (ships over the sea, for example) allowing spatio-temporal queries. Our method, GraCT, uses a $k^2$-tree to store the absolute positions of all objects at…

In Gapped String Indexing, the goal is to compactly represent a string $S$ of length $n$ such that for any query consisting of two strings $P_1$ and $P_2$, called patterns, and an integer interval $[\alpha, \beta]$, called gap range, we can…

The problem of dictionary matching is a classical problem in string matching: given a set S of d strings of total length n characters over an (not necessarily constant) alphabet of size sigma, build a data structure so that we can match in…

Given a string $T$, it is known that its suffix tree can be represented using the compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) with $e_T$ arcs, taking overall $O(e_T+e_{{\overline{T}}})$ words of space, where ${\overline{T}}$ is the reverse…

An optimal index solving top-k document retrieval [Navarro and Nekrich, SODA12] takes O(m + k) time for a pattern of length m, but its space is at least 80n bytes for a collection of n symbols. We reduce it to 1.5n to 3n bytes, with…

The compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) of a string $T$ of length $n$ takes space proportional just to the number $e$ of right extensions of the maximal repeats of $T$, and it is thus an appealing index for highly repetitive…

Real-world data often comes in compressed form. Analyzing compressed data directly (without decompressing it) can save space and time by orders of magnitude. In this work, we focus on fundamental sequence comparison problems and try to…

Countless variants of the Lempel-Ziv compression are widely used in many real-life applications. This paper is concerned with a natural modification of the classical pattern matching problem inspired by the popularity of such compression…

Let $T$ be a string of length $n$ over an integer alphabet of size $\sigma$. In the word RAM model, $T$ can be represented in $O(n /\log_\sigma n)$ space. We show that a representation of all covers of $T$ can be computed in the optimal…

We present an algorithm for computing the Lyndon factorization of a string that is given in grammar compressed form, namely, a Straight Line Program (SLP). The algorithm runs in $O(n^4 + mn^3h)$ time and $O(n^2)$ space, where $m$ is the…

Under the word RAM model, we design three data structures that can be constructed in $O(n\sqrt{\lg n})$ time over $n$ points in an $n \times n$ grid. The first data structure is an $O(n\lg^{\epsilon} n)$-word structure supporting orthogonal…

Usually, a parser for an $LR(k)$-grammar $G$ is a deterministic pushdown transducer which produces backwards the unique rightmost derivation for a given input string $x \in L(G)$. The best known upper bound for the size of such a parser is…

Cadences are structurally maximal arithmetic progressions of indices corresponding to equal characters in an underlying string. This paper provides a polynomial time detection algorithm for 3-cadences in grammar-compressed binary strings.…

Given a string $S$ of length $n$, the classic string indexing problem is to preprocess $S$ into a compact data structure that supports efficient subsequent pattern queries. In this paper we consider the basic variant where the pattern is…

We consider the problem of compactly representing the Depth First Search (DFS) tree of a given undirected or directed graph having $n$ vertices and $m$ edges while supporting various DFS related queries efficiently in the RAM with…
