We investigate the least number of palindromic factors in an infinite word. We first consider general alphabets, and give answers to this problem for periodic and non-periodic words, closed or not under reversal of factors. We then…

We propose a quantum algorithm for closest pattern matching which allows us to search for as many distinct patterns as we wish in a given string (database), requiring a query function per symbol of the pattern alphabet. This represents a…

We design, implement and test a simple algorithm which computes the approximate entropy of a finite binary string of arbitrary length. The algorithm uses a weighted average of the Shannon Entropies of the string and all but the last binary…

Exact string matching has been a fundamental problem in computer science for decades because of many practical applications. Some are related to common procedures, such as searching in files and text editors, or, more recently, to more…

In this work, we revisit the fundamental and well-studied problem of approximate pattern matching under edit distance. Given an integer $k$, a pattern $P$ of length $m$, and a text $T$ of length $n \ge m$, the task is to find substrings of…

Cartesian tree pattern matching consists of finding all the factors of a text that have the same Cartesian tree than a given pattern. There already exist theoretical and practical solutions for the exact case. In this paper, we propose the…

In this work, we consider the problem of pattern matching under the dynamic time warping (DTW) distance motivated by potential applications in the analysis of biological data produced by the third generation sequencing. To measure the DTW…

We consider approximate circular pattern matching (CPM, in short) under the Hamming and edit distance, in which we are given a length-$n$ text $T$, a length-$m$ pattern $P$, and a threshold $k>0$, and we are to report all starting positions…

In the $k$-Edit Circular Pattern Matching ($k$-Edit CPM) problem, we are given a length-$n$ text $T$, a length-$m$ pattern $P$, and a positive integer threshold $k$, and we are to report all starting positions of the substrings of $T$ that…

In a seminal paper on finding large matchings in sparse random graphs, Karp and Sipser proposed two algorithms for this task. The second algorithm has been intensely studied, but due to technical difficulties, the first algorithm has…

A palindrome is a string that reads the same as its reverse, such as "aibohphobia" (fear of palindromes). Given an integer $d>0$, a $d$-near-palindrome is a string of Hamming distance at most $d$ from its reverse. We study the natural…

In this paper we describe two simple, fast, space-efficient algorithms for finding all matches of an indeterminate pattern $p = p[1..m]$ in an indeterminate string $x = x[1..n]$, where both $p$ and $x$ are defined on a "small" ordered…

An approximate textual retrieval algorithm for searching sources with high levels of defects is presented. It considers splitting the words in a query into two overlapping segments and subsequently building composite regular expressions…

Simon's congruence $\sim_k$ is defined as follows: two words are $\sim_k$-equivalent if they have the same set of subsequences of length at most $k$. We propose an algorithm which computes, given two words $s$ and $t$, the largest $k$ for…

Various grammar compression algorithms have been proposed in the last decade. A grammar compression is a restricted CFG deriving the string deterministically. An efficient grammar compression develops a smaller CFG by finding duplicated…

In this paper we propose an algorithm for the approximate k-Nearest-Neighbors problem. According to the existing researches, there are two kinds of approximation criterion. One is the distance criteria, and the other is the recall criteria.…

In this paper modified variants of the sparse Fourier transform algorithms from [14] are presented which improve on the approximation error bounds of the original algorithms. In addition, simple methods for extending the improved sparse…

A pattern p (i.e., a string of variables and terminals) matches a word w, if w can be obtained by uniformly replacing the variables of p by terminal words. The respective matching problem, i.e., deciding whether or not a given pattern…

A palindrome is a string that reads the same forward and backward. A palindromic substring $w$ of a string $T$ is called a minimal unique palindromic substring (MUPS) of $T$ if $w$ occurs only once in $T$ and any proper palindromic…

Given a pair of strings, the problems of computing their Longest Common Subsequence and Edit Distance have been extensively studied for decades. For exact algorithms, LCS and Edit Distance (with character insertions and deletions) are…
