Fast matching of regular expressions with bounded repetition, aka counting, such as (ab){50,100}, i.e., matching linear in the length of the text and independent of the repetition bounds, has been an open problem for at least two decades.…
Matching natural language sentences is central for many applications such as information retrieval and question answering. Existing deep models rely on a single sentence representation or multiple granularity representations for matching.…
A compressed self-index stores a string in compressed form while supporting locate queries without decompression. For highly repetitive strings (arising in web crawls, versioned documents, and genomic collections), static self-indexes can…
Re-Pair is an effective grammar-based compression scheme achieving strong compression rates in practice. Let $n$, $\sigma$, and $d$ be the text length, alphabet size, and dictionary size of the final grammar, respectively. In their original…
We study the dynamic membership problem for regular languages: fix a language L, read a word w, build in time O(|w|) a data structure indicating if w is in L, and maintain this structure efficiently under letter substitutions on w. We…
There are more than 7,000 languages around the world, and current Large Language Models (LLMs) only support hundreds of languages. Dictionary-based prompting methods can enhance translation on them, but most methods use all the available…
To effectively search for the optimal motion template in dynamic multidimensional space, this paper proposes a novel optimization algorithm, Dynamic Dimension Wrapping (DDW).The algorithm combines Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) and Euclidean…
We present semantic correctness proofs of forward-mode Automatic Differentiation (AD) for languages with sources of partiality such as partial operations, lazy conditionals on real parameters, iteration, and term and type recursion. We…
The currently fastest algorithm for regular expression pattern matching and membership improves the classical O(nm) time algorithm by a factor of about log^{3/2}n. Instead of focussing on general patterns we analyse homogeneous patterns of…
Automatic workflow composition (AWC) is a relevant problem in automated machine learning (AutoML) that allows finding suitable sequences of preprocessing and prediction models together with their optimal hyperparameters. This problem can be…
An acyclic deterministic finite automaton (ADFA) is a data structure that represents a set of strings (i.e., a dictionary) and facilitates a pattern searching problem of determining whether a given pattern string is present in the…
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…
Let $P=(P_1, P_2, \ldots, P_n)$, $P_i \in \field{R}$ for all $i$, be a signal and let $C$ be a constant. In this work our goal is to find a function $F:[n]\rightarrow \field{R}$ which optimizes the following objective function: $$ \min_{F}…
In this work, we propose an enhancement to the Boyer-Moore-Horspool algorithm tailored for natural language text. The approach involves preprocessing the search pattern to identify its statistically least frequent character, referred to as…
Motivated by the imminent growth of massive, highly redundant genomic databases, we study the problem of compressing a string database while simultaneously supporting fast random access, substring extraction and pattern matching to the…
Multiple string matching is known as locating all the occurrences of a given number of patterns in an arbitrary string. It is used in bio-computing applications where the algorithms are commonly used for retrieval of information such as…
We develop a dynamic version of the primal-dual method for optimization problems, and apply it to obtain the following results. (1) For the dynamic set-cover problem, we maintain an $O(f^2)$-approximately optimal solution in $O(f \cdot \log…
We present a data structure representing a dynamic set S of w-bit integers on a w-bit word RAM. With |S|=n and w > log n and space O(n), we support the following standard operations in O(log n / log w) time: - insert(x) sets S = S + {x}. -…

Sparse coding in learned dictionaries has been established as a successful approach for signal denoising, source separation and solving inverse problems in general. A dictionary learning method adapts an initial dictionary to a particular…
