Consider a universe of tokens, each of which is associated with a weight, and a database consisting of strings that can be represented as subsets of these tokens. Given a query st...
Our aim is to develop new database technologies for the approximate matching of unstructured string data using indexes. We explore the potential of the suffix tree data structure i...
