We report the first evaluation of Constraint Satisfaction as a computational framework for solving closest string problems. We show that careful consideration of symbol occurrenc...
Given a set D = {d1, d2, ..., dD} of D strings of total length n, our task is to report the "most relevant" strings for a given query pattern P. This involves somewhat mo...
A square is the concatenation of two identical non-empty strings. Let S be the input string which is given character by character. Let m be the (unknown) smallest integer such that...
There are many critical situations when one needs to rapidly identify an unidentified pathogen from among a given set of previously sequenced pathogens. DNA or RNA hybridization c...
In this paper, we contribute a new paradigm of combining string recognizers and propose generic frameworks for hierarchical and parallel combination of multiple string recognizers...
