Let $S_1, S_2 \in \Sigma^*$ strings, we say that $S_1$ {\em jumble match} $S_2$ if they are permutations of each other. Given a text $T$ of size $N$ and a string $S \in \Sigma^*$, the problem of \emph{Jumbled Pattern Matching} (JPM) is to…

String kernels are typically used to compare genome-scale sequences whose length makes alignment impractical, yet their computation is based on data structures that are either space-inefficient, or incur large slowdowns. We show that a…
