Let ${\cal{D}}$ = $\{d_1, d_2, d_3, ..., d_D\}$ be a given set of $D$ (string) documents of total length $n$. The top-$k$ document retrieval problem is to index $\cal{D}$ such that when a pattern $P$ of length $p$, and a parameter $k$ come…
Cartesian tree matching is a form of generalized pattern matching where a substring of the text matches with the pattern if they share the same Cartesian tree. This form of matching finds application for time series of stock prices and can…
In this paper we describe compressed indexes that support pattern matching queries for strings with wildcards. For a constant size alphabet our data structure uses $O(n\log^{\varepsilon}n)$ bits for any $\varepsilon>0$ and reports all…
We describe the first self-indexes able to count and locate pattern occurrences in optimal time within a space bounded by the size of the most popular dictionary compressors. To achieve this result we combine several recent findings,…
Many websites with an underlying database containing structured data provide the richest and most dense source of information relevant for topical data integration. The real data integration requires sustainable and reliable pattern…
Pattern matching can be used to calculate the support of patterns, and is a key issue in sequential pattern mining (or sequence pattern mining). Nonoverlapping pattern matching means that two occurrences cannot use the same character in the…
Sparse document representations have been widely used to retrieve relevant documents via exact lexical matching. Owing to the pre-computed inverted index, it supports fast ad-hoc search but incurs the vocabulary mismatch problem. Although…
Sequence optimization, where the items in a list are ordered to maximize some reward has many applications such as web advertisement placement, search, and control libraries in robotics. Previous work in sequence optimization produces a…
Given a set of pattern strings $\mathcal{P}=\{P_1, P_2,\ldots P_k\}$ and a text string $S$, the classic dictionary matching problem is to report all occurrences of each pattern in $S$. We study the dictionary problem in the compressed…
We consider document listing on string collections, that is, finding in which strings a given pattern appears. In particular, we focus on repetitive collections: a collection of size $N$ over alphabet $[1,\sigma]$ is composed of $D$ copies…
In this paper, we describe a new type of match between a pattern and a text that aren't necessarily maximal in the query, but still contain useful matching information: locally maximal exact matches (LEMs). There are usually a large amount…
Encoding data as a set of unordered strings is receiving great attention as it captures one of the basic features of DNA storage systems. However, the challenge of constructing optimal redundancy codes for this channel remained elusive. In…
Packing several characters into one computer word is a simple and natural way to compress the representation of a string and to speed up its processing. Exploiting this idea, we propose an index for a packed string, based on a {\em sparse…
We introduce the concept of {\it self-referential order} which provides a way to quantify structural organization in non crystalline materials. The key idea consists in the observation that, in a disordered system, where there is no ideal,…
Strings in the real world are often encoded with some level of uncertainty. In the character-level uncertainty model, an uncertain string $X$ of length $n$ on an alphabet $\Sigma$ is a sequence of $n$ probability distributions over…
Column-oriented indexes-such as projection or bitmap indexes-are compressed by run-length encoding to reduce storage and increase speed. Sorting the tables improves compression. On realistic data sets, permuting the columns in the right…
The FM-index is a celebrated compressed data structure for full-text pattern searching. After the first wave of interest in its theoretical developments, we can observe a surge of interest in practical FM-index variants in the last few…
In the last decades, the necessity to process massive amounts of textual data fueled the development of compressed text indexes: data structures efficiently answering queries on a given text while occupying space proportional to the…
In recent years, RDF has gained popularity as a format for the standardized publication and exchange of information in the Web of Data. In this paper we introduce RDFCSA, a data structure that is able to self-index an RDF dataset in small…
In this work, we propose a framework to store and manage spatial data, which includes new efficient algorithms to perform operations accepting as input a raster dataset and a vector dataset. More concretely, we present algorithms for…
