In this paper, we consider the problem of compressing a trie while supporting the powerful \emph{locate} queries: to return the pre-order identifiers of all nodes reached by a path labeled with a given query pattern. Our result builds on…
We present parallel algorithms for exact and approximate pattern matching with suffix arrays, using a CREW-PRAM with $p$ processors. Given a static text of length $n$, we first show how to compute the suffix array interval of a given…
Until recently, most experts would probably have agreed we cannot backwards-step in constant time with a run-length compressed Burrows-Wheeler Transform (RLBWT), since doing so relies on rank queries on sparse bitvectors and those inherit…
The suffix array is a fundamental data structure for many applications that involve string searching and data compression. Designing time/space-efficient suffix array construction algorithms has attracted significant attention and…
Sorting is a fundamental algorithmic pre-processing technique which often allows to represent data more compactly and, at the same time, speeds up search queries on it. In this paper, we focus on the well-studied problem of sorting and…
We prove that longest common prefix (LCP) information can be stored in much less space than previously known. More precisely, we show that in the presence of the text and the suffix array, o(n) additional bits are sufficient to answer…
Sublinear time quantum algorithms have been established for many fundamental problems on strings. This work demonstrates that new, faster quantum algorithms can be designed when the string is highly compressible. We focus on two popular and…
Let $T [1..n]$ be a text over an alphabet of size $\sigma \in \mathrm{polylog} (n)$, let $r^*$ be the sum of the numbers of runs in the Burrows-Wheeler Transforms of $T$ and its reverse, and let $z$ be the number of phrases in the LZ77…
A self-index is a compressed data structure that supports locate queries -- reporting all positions where a given pattern occurs in a string while maintaining the string in compressed form. While many self-indexes have been proposed,…
In this paper, we present the first study of the computational complexity of converting an automata-based text index structure, called the Compact Directed Acyclic Word Graph (CDAWG), of size $e$ for a text $T$ of length $n$ into other text…
We present a novel bit-parallel representation, based on the run-length encoding, of the nondeterministic KMP and suffix automata for a string $P$ with at least two distinct symbols. Our method is targeted to the case of long strings over…
The suffix array is a classic full-text index, combining effectiveness with simplicity. We discuss three approaches aiming to improve its efficiency even more: changes to the navigation, data layout and adding extra data. In short, we show…
The move structure represents permutations with long contiguously permuted intervals in compressed space with optimal query time. They have become an important feature of compressed text indexes using space proportional to the number of…
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…
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…
We consider the problem of encoding a string of length $n$ from an integer alphabet of size $\sigma$ so that access and substring equality queries (that is, determining the equality of any two substrings) can be answered efficiently. Any…
The notions of synchronizing and partitioning sets are recently introduced variants of locally consistent parsings with great potential in problem-solving. In this paper we propose a deterministic algorithm that constructs for a given…
In this article we extend the elegant in-place Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) algorithm proposed by Crochemore et al. (Crochemore et al., 2015). Our extension is twofold: we first show how to compute simultaneously the longest common…
The longest common prefix array is a very advantageous data structure that, combined with the suffix array and the Burrows-Wheeler transform, allows to efficiently compute some combinatorial properties of a string useful in several…
In this paper we present a new fast algorithm finding minimal reset words for finite synchronizing automata. The problem is know to be computationally hard, and our algorithm is exponential. Yet, it is faster than the algorithms used so far…
