In this note, we consider the problem of finding a step-by-step transformation between two longest increasing subsequences in a sequence, namely Longest Increasing Subsequence Reconfiguration. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for…
In the longest common substring problem, we are given two strings of length $n$ and must find a substring of maximal length that occurs in both strings. It is well known that the problem can be solved in linear time, but the solution is not…
Frequent pattern mining is widely used to find ``important'' or ``interesting'' patterns in data. While it is not easy to mathematically define such patterns, maximal frequent patterns are promising candidates, as frequency is a natural…
This paper investigates two issues on identification of switched linear systems: persistence of excitation and numerical algorithms. The main contribution is a much weaker condition on the regressor to be persistently exciting that…
The longest common substring with $k$-mismatches problem is to find, given two strings $S_1$ and $S_2$, a longest substring $A_1$ of $S_1$ and $A_2$ of $S_2$ such that the Hamming distance between $A_1$ and $A_2$ is $\le k$. We introduce a…
The set of all $ q $-ary strings that do not contain repeated substrings of length $ \leqslant\! 3 $ (i.e., that do not contain substrings of the form $ a a $, $ a b a b $, and $ a b c a b c $) constitutes a code correcting an arbitrary…
The problem of finding a longest common subsequence of two main sequences with some constraint that must be a substring of the result (STR-IC-LCS) was formulated recently. It is a variant of the constrained longest common subsequence…
We consider the longest common subsequence (LCS) problem with the restriction that the common subsequence is required to consist of at least $k$ length substrings. First, we show an $O(mn)$ time algorithm for the problem which gives a…
We present an online algorithm to deal with pattern matching in strings. The problem we investigate is commonly known as string matching with mismatches in which the objective is to report the number of characters that match when a pattern…
Approximate pattern matching is a natural and well-studied problem on strings: Given a text $T$, a pattern $P$, and a threshold $k$, find (the starting positions of) all substrings of $T$ that are at distance at most $k$ from $P$. We…
Let $X_1, X_2, ..., X_s$ and $Y_1, Y_2, ..., Y_t$ be strings over an alphabet $\Sigma$, where $s$ and $t$ are positive integers. The longest common subsequence and substring problem for multiple strings $X_1, X_2, ..., X_s$ and $Y_1, Y_2,…
The classic string indexing problem is to preprocess a string $S$ into a compact data structure that supports efficient subsequent pattern matching queries, that is, given a pattern string $P$, report all occurrences of $P$ within $S$. In…
Computation on compressed strings is one of the key approaches to processing massive data sets. We consider local subsequence recognition problems on strings compressed by straight-line programs (SLP), which is closely related to…
In the area of Pattern Recognition and Matching, finding a Longest Common Subsequence plays an important role. In this paper, we have proposed one algorithm based on parallel computation. We have used OpenMP API package as middleware to…
We consider string matching with variable length gaps. Given a string $T$ and a pattern $P$ consisting of strings separated by variable length gaps (arbitrary strings of length in a specified range), the problem is to find all ending…
We revisit the classic combinatorial pattern matching problem of finding a longest common subsequence (LCS). For strings $x$ and $y$ of length $n$, a textbook algorithm solves LCS in time $O(n^2)$, but although much effort has been spent,…
This paper presents a new approach to statistical similarity assessment based on sequence alignment. The algorithm performs mutual matching of two random sequences by successively searching for common elements and by applying sequence…
The classic string indexing problem is to preprocess a string S into a compact data structure that supports efficient pattern matching queries. Typical queries include existential queries (decide if the pattern occurs in S), reporting…
Many tasks in natural language processing, ranging from machine translation to question answering, can be reduced to the problem of matching two sentences or more generally two short texts. We propose a new approach to the problem, called…
Consider two independent random strings having same length and taking values uniformly in a common finite alphabet. We study the order of the variance of the length of the longest common subsequences (LCS) of these strings when long blocks,…
