The approximate string matching is a fundamental and recurrent problem that arises in most computer science fields. This problem can be defined as follows: Let $D=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots x_d\}$ be a set of $d$ words defined on an alphabet…
We introduce a new class of straight-line programs (SLPs), named the Lyndon SLP, inspired by the Lyndon trees (Barcelo, 1990). Based on this SLP, we propose a self-index data structure of $O(g)$ words of space that can be built from a…
We propose novel algorithms for sequence prediction based on ideas from stringology. These algorithms are time and space efficient and satisfy mistake bounds related to particular stringological complexity measures of the sequence. In this…
The classical pattern matching asks for locating all occurrences of one string, called the pattern, in another, called the text, where a string is simply a sequence of characters. Due to the potential practical applications, it is desirable…
The class of input-output systems representable as Chen-Fliess series arises often in control theory. One well known drawback of this representation, however, is that the iterated integrals which appear in these series are algebraically…
A synchronizing word of a deterministic finite complete automaton is a word whose action maps every state to a single one. Finding a shortest or a short synchronizing word is a central computational problem in the theory of synchronizing…
The sparse dictionary coding framework represents signals as a linear combination of a few predefined dictionary atoms. It has been employed for images, time series, graph signals and recently for 2-way (or 2D) spatio-temporal data…
Detecting all the strings that occur in a text more frequently or less frequently than expected according to an IID or a Markov model is a basic problem in string mining, yet current algorithms are based on data structures that are either…
We develop a combinatorial approach to the study of semigroups and monoids with finite presentations satisfying small overlap conditions. In contrast to existing geometric methods, our approach facilitates a sequential left-right analysis…
Contemporary large models often exhibit behaviors suggesting the presence of low-level primitives that compose into modules with richer functionality, but these fundamental building blocks remain poorly understood. We investigate this…
A method for online tensor dictionary learning is proposed. With the assumption of separable dictionaries, tensor contraction is used to diminish a $N$-way model of $\mathcal{O}\left(L^N\right)$ into a simple matrix equation of…
We introduce a new family of compressed data structures to efficiently store and query large string dictionaries in main memory. Our main technique is a combination of hierarchical Front-coding with ideas from longest-common-prefix…
Dictionaries are collections of vectors used for representations of random vectors in Euclidean spaces. Recent research on optimal dictionaries is focused on constructing dictionaries that offer sparse representations, i.e.,…
In this paper we present a really simple linear-time algorithm constructing a context-free grammar of size O(g log (N/g)) for the input string, where N is the size of the input string and g the size of the optimal grammar generating this…
We introduce a new approach to LZ77 factorization that uses O(n/d) words of working space and O(dn) time for any d >= 1 (for polylogarithmic alphabet sizes). We also describe carefully engineered implementations of alternative approaches to…
The set of permutations on a finite set can be given the lattice structure known as the weak Bruhat order. This lattice structure is generalized to the set of words on a fixed alphabet $\Sigma$ = {x,y,z,...}, where each letter has a fixed…
The article focuses on word (or string) attractors, which are sets of positions related to the text compression efficiency of the underlying word. The article presents two combinatorial algorithms based on Suffix automata or Directed…
The Chen-Fox-Lyndon theorem states that every finite word over a fixed alphabet can be uniquely factorized as a lexicographically nonincreasing sequence of Lyndon words. This theorem can be used to define the family of Lyndon words in a…
The process of sorting the suffixes of a text plays a fundamental role in Text Algorithms. They are used for instance in the constructions of the Burrows-Wheeler transform and the suffix array, widely used in several fields of Computer…
The compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) [Blumer et al. 1987] of a string is the minimal compact automaton that recognizes all the suffixes of the string. CDAWGs can be used for various string tasks including text pattern searching,…
