To store and search genomic databases efficiently, researchers have recently started building compressed self-indexes based on grammars. In this paper we show how, given a straight-line program with $r$ rules for a string (S [1..n]) whose…
Let $\D = $$ \{d_1,d_2,...d_D\}$ be a given set of $D$ string documents of total length $n$, our task is to index $\D$, such that the $k$ most relevant documents for an online query pattern $P$ of length $p$ can be retrieved efficiently. We…
The $r$-index (Gagie et al., JACM 2020) represented a breakthrough in compressed indexing of repetitive text collections, outperforming its alternatives by orders of magnitude. Its space usage, $\mathcal{O}(r)$ where $r$ is the number of…
We present a compressed representation of tries based on top tree compression [ICALP 2013] that works on a standard, comparison-based, pointer machine model of computation and supports efficient prefix search queries. Namely, we show how to…
Given an LZW/LZ78 compressed text, we want to find an approximate occurrence of a given pattern of length m. The goal is to achieve time complexity depending on the size n of the compressed representation of the text instead of its length.…
Countless variants of the Lempel-Ziv compression are widely used in many real-life applications. This paper is concerned with a natural modification of the classical pattern matching problem inspired by the popularity of such compression…
Given a string $T$ of length $N$, the goal of grammar compression is to construct a small context-free grammar generating only $T$. Among existing grammar compression methods, RePair (recursive paring) [Larsson and Moffat, 1999] is notable…
Can we analyze data without decompressing it? As our data keeps growing, understanding the time complexity of problems on compressed inputs, rather than in convenient uncompressed forms, becomes more and more relevant. Suppose we are given…
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…
We introduce data structures answering queries concerning the occurrences of patterns from a given dictionary $\mathcal{D}$ in fragments of a given string $T$ of length $n$. The dictionary is internal in the sense that each pattern in…
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…
We propose algorithms that, given the input string of length $n$ over integer alphabet of size $\sigma$, construct the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT), the permuted longest-common-prefix (PLCP) array, and the LZ77 parsing in…
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.…
Internal Pattern Matching (IPM) queries on a text $T$, given two fragments $X$ and $Y$ of $T$ such that $|Y|<2|X|$, ask to compute all exact occurrences of $X$ within $Y$. IPM queries have been introduced by Kociumaka, Radoszewski, Rytter,…
We revisit a fundamental problem in string matching: given a pattern of length m and a text of length n, both over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, compute the Hamming distance between the pattern and the text at every location. Several…
We describe how, given a text $T [1..n]$ and a positive constant $\epsilon$, we can build a simple $O (z \log n)$-space index, where $z$ is the number of phrases in the LZ77 parse of $T$, such that later, given a pattern $P [1..m]$, in $O…
In this paper, we propose a new \emph{dynamic compressed index} of $O(w)$ space for a dynamic text $T$, where $w = O(\min(z \log N \log^*M, N))$ is the size of the signature encoding of $T$, $z$ is the size of the Lempel-Ziv77 (LZ77)…
We show that the compressed suffix array and the compressed suffix tree for a string of length $n$ over an integer alphabet of size $\sigma\leq n$ can both be built in $O(n)$ (randomized) time using only $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of working…
Grammar based compression, where one replaces a long string by a small context-free grammar that generates the string, is a simple and powerful paradigm that captures many popular compression schemes. In this paper, we present a novel…
Computing the {\em matching statistics} of a string $P[1..m]$ with respect to a text $T[1..n]$ is a fundamental problem which has application to genome sequence comparison. In this paper, we study the problem of computing the matching…
