We have attempted in this paper to reduce the number of checked condition through saving frequency of the tandem replicated words, and also using non-overlapping iterative neighbor intervals on plane sweep algorithm. The essential idea of…
Time series are ubiquitous in domains ranging from medicine to marketing and finance. Frequent Pattern Mining (FPM) from a time series has thus received much attention. Recently, it has been studied under the order-preserving (OP) matching…

A Random Access query to a string $T\in [0..\sigma)^n$ asks for the character $T[i]$ at a given position $i\in [0..n)$. In $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of space, this fundamental task admits constant-time queries. While this is optimal in the…
We study the internal dictionary matching (IDM) problem where a dictionary $\mathcal{D}$ containing $d$ substrings of a text $T$ is given, and each query concerns the occurrences of patterns in $\mathcal{D}$ in another substring of $T$. We…
We consider the problem of finding, given two documents of total length $n$, a longest string occurring as a substring of both documents. This problem, known as the Longest Common Substring (LCS) problem, has a classic $O(n)$-time solution…

Given \(k\) strings each of length at most $n$, computing the shortest common supersequence of them is a well-known NP-hard problem (when \(k\) is unbounded). On the other hand, when \(k=2\), such a shortest common supersequence can be…
Searching for all occurrences of a pattern in a text is a fundamental problem in computer science with applications in many other fields, like natural language processing, information retrieval and computational biology. Sampled string…
Given an array A of $n$ elements, we wish to support queries for the most frequent and least frequent element in a subrange $[l, r]$ of $A$. We also wish to support updates that change a particular element at index $i$ or insert/ delete an…
A longest common extension (LCE) query on a string computes the length of the longest common suffix or prefix at two given positions. A dynamic LCE algorithm maintains a data structure that allows efficient LCE queries on a string that can…
The circular dictionary matching problem is an extension of the classical dictionary matching problem where every string in the dictionary is interpreted as a circular string: after reading the last character of a string, we can move back…
Given a text $T$ of length $n$ and a pattern $P$ of length $m$, the string matching problem is a task to find all occurrences of $P$ in $T$. In this study, we propose an algorithm that solves this problem in $O((n + m)q)$ time considering…

We revisit the classic border tree data structure [Gu, Farach, Beigel, SODA 1994] that answers the following prefix-suffix queries on a string $T$ of length $n$ over an integer alphabet $\Sigma=[0,\sigma)$: for any $i,j \in [0,n)$ return…
In this paper we study lower bounds for the fundamental problem of text indexing with mismatches and differences. In this problem we are given a long string of length $n$, the "text", and the task is to preprocess it into a data structure…
