Edit distance matching has been used in literature for word spotting with characters taken as primitives. The recognition rate however, is limited by the segmentation inconsistenci...
As the E-Commerce rapidly grows up, searching data is almost necessary in every application. Approximate string matching problems play a very important role to search with errors....
Given a string x and a language L, the Hamming distance of x to L is the minimum Hamming distance of x to any string in L. The edit distance of a string to a language is analogous...
We give an efficient protocol for sequence comparisons of the edit-distance kind, such that neither party reveals anything about their private sequence to the other party (other t...

String data is ubiquitous, and its management has taken on particular importance in the past few years. Approximate queries are very important on string data especially for more c...
This paper is concerned with computing graph edit distance. One of the criticisms that can be leveled at existing methods for computing graph edit distance is that it lacks the fo...
We consider the Edit distance with moves on the class of words and the class of ordered trees. We first exhibit a simple tester for the class of regular languages on words and gen...
In this paper we present an enhancement of edit distance based music performance annotation. The annotation captures musical expressivity not only in terms of timing deviations but...
When integrating data from autonomous sources, exact matches of data items that represent the same real world object often fail due to a lack of common keys. Yet in many cases str...
Let A and B be strings with lengths m and n, respectively, over a finite integer alphabet. Two classic string mathing problems are computing the edit distance between A and B, and...
