In this paper we are interested in indexing texts for substring matching queries with one edit error. That is, given a text $T$ of $n$ characters over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, we are asked to build a data structure that answers the…
Suffix tree (and the closely related suffix array) are fundamental structures capturing all substrings of a given text essentially by storing all its suffixes in the lexicographical order. In some applications, we work with a subset of $b$…
We show an $\widetilde{O}(m^{1.5} \epsilon^{-1})$ time algorithm that on a graph with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices outputs its spanning tree count up to a multiplicative $(1+\epsilon)$ factor with high probability, improving on the previous…
We introduce the first index that can be built in $o(n)$ time for a text of length $n$, and can also be queried in $o(q)$ time for a pattern of length $q$. On an alphabet of size $\sigma$, our index uses $O(n\sqrt{\log n\log\sigma})$ bits,…
The {\sc Directed Maximum Leaf Out-Branching} problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) in a given digraph with the maximum number of leaves. In this paper, we obtain two combinatorial results on the number…
Given a pattern string $P$ of length $n$ and a query string $T$ of length $m$, where the characters of $P$ and $T$ are drawn from an alphabet of size $\Delta$, the {\em exact string matching} problem consists of finding all occurrences of…
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…
Range queries are simple and popular types of queries used in data retrieval. However, extracting exact and complete information using range queries is costly. As a remedy, some previous work proposed a faster principle, {\em approximate}…
We consider distance queries in vertex-labeled planar graphs. For any fixed $0 < \epsilon \leq 1/2$ we show how to preprocess a directed planar graph with vertex labels and arc lengths into a data structure that answers queries of the…
A Straight-Line Program (SLP) $G$ for a string $T$ is a context-free grammar (CFG) that derives $T$ only, which can be considered as a compressed representation of $T$. In this paper, we show how to encode $G$ in $n \lceil \lg N \rceil + (n…
Various grammar compression algorithms have been proposed in the last decade. A grammar compression is a restricted CFG deriving the string deterministically. An efficient grammar compression develops a smaller CFG by finding duplicated…
An exact-match overlap graph of $n$ given strings of length $\ell$ is an edge-weighted graph in which each vertex is associated with a string and there is an edge $(x,y)$ of weight $\omega = \ell - |ov_{max}(x,y)|$ if and only if $\omega…
The dictionary matching is a task to find all occurrences of patterns in a set $D$ (called a dictionary) on a text $T$. The Aho-Corasick-automaton (AC-automaton) is a data structure which enables us to solve the dictionary matching problem…
This paper shows the weighted matching problem on general graphs can be solved in time $O(n(m + n\log n))$ for $n$ and $m$ the number of vertices and edges, respectively. This was previously known only for bipartite graphs. The crux is a…
A weighted string over an alphabet of size $\sigma$ is a string in which a set of letters may occur at each position with respective occurrence probabilities. Weighted strings, also known as position weight matrices or uncertain sequences,…
This work aims to learn the directed acyclic graph (DAG) that captures the instantaneous dependencies underlying a multivariate time series. The observed data follow a linear structural vector autoregressive model (SVARM) with both…
Two strings $x$ and $y$ over $\Sigma \cup \Pi$ of equal length are said to \emph{parameterized match} (\emph{p-match}) if there is a renaming bijection $f:\Sigma \cup \Pi \rightarrow \Sigma \cup \Pi$ that is identity on $\Sigma$ and…
Resistance distance computation is a fundamental problem in graph analysis, yet existing random walk-based methods are limited to approximate solutions and suffer from poor efficiency on small-treewidth graphs (e.g., road networks). In…
Palindromes are strings that read the same forward and backward. The computation of palindromic structures within strings is a fundamental problem in string algorithms, being motivated by potential applications in formal language theory and…
We show that the compressed suffix array and the compressed suffix tree of a string $T$ can be built in $O(n)$ deterministic time using $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of space, where $n$ is the string length and $\sigma$ is the alphabet size.…
