The streaming $k$-mismatch problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We consider the streaming complexity of a fundamental task in approximate pattern matching: the $k$-mismatch problem. It asks to compute Hamming distances between a pattern of length $n$ and all length-$n$ substrings of a text for which the Hamming ...

String Indexing for Patterns with Wildcards [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We consider the problem of indexing a string $t$ of length $n$ to report the occurrences of a query pattern $p$ containing $m$ characters and $j$ wildcards. Let $occ$ be the number of occurrences of $p$ in $t$, and $\sigma$ the size of the alphabet.

A basic analysis toolkit for biological sequences

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2007
This paper presents a software library, nicknamed BATS, for some basic sequence analysis tasks. Namely, local alignments, via approximate string matching, and global alignments, via longest common subsequence and alignments with affine and concave gap ...

Extracting scientific articles from a large digital archive: BioStor and the Biodiversity Heritage Library

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2011
Background The Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL) is a large digital archive of legacy biological literature, comprising over 31 million pages scanned from books, monographs, and journals. During the digitisation process basic metadata about the scanned

Approximate Two-Party Privacy-Preserving String Matching with Linear Complexity

open access: yes, 2013
Consider two parties who want to compare their strings, e.g., genomes, but do not want to reveal them to each other. We present a system for privacy-preserving matching of strings, which differs from existing systems by providing a deterministic ...

General Rotating Black Holes in String Theory: Greybody Factors and Event Horizons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We derive the wave equation for a minimally coupled scalar field in the background of a general rotating five-dimensional black hole. It is written in a form that involves two types of thermodynamic variables, defined at the inner and outer event horizon,

Pattern matching through Chaos Game Representation: bridging numerical and discrete data structures for biological sequence analysis

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2012
Background Chaos Game Representation (CGR) is an iterated function that bijectively maps discrete sequences into a continuous domain. As a result, discrete sequences can be object of statistical and topological analyses otherwise reserved to numerical ...

Sixty years of research in dental age estimation: a bibliometric study

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2023
Background Dental age estimation (DAE) research has grown rapidly and became one of the biggest topics in forensic odontology. This study aimed to evaluate the DAE research trends over the span of 60 years using bibliometric analysis.

Distributed PCP Theorems for Hardness of Approximation in P [PDF]

open access: yes, 1952
We present a new distributed model of probabilistically checkable proofs (PCP). A satisfying assignment $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ to a CNF formula $\varphi$ is shared between two parties, where Alice knows $x_1, \dots, x_{n/2}$, Bob knows $x_{n/2+1},\dots,x_n ...

A Bottom-Up Approach for Automatically Grouping Sensor Data Layers by their Observed Property

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2013
The Sensor Web is a growing phenomenon where an increasing number of sensors are collecting data in the physical world, to be made available over the Internet.
