Processing SPARQL queries with regular expressions in RDF databases. [PDF]
Background As the Resource Description Framework (RDF) data model is widely used for modeling and sharing a lot of online bioinformatics resources such as Uniprot (dev.isb-sib.ch/projects/uniprot-rdf) or Bio2RDF (bio2rdf.org), SPARQL - a W3C ...

Expressiveness modulo Bisimilarity of Regular Expressions with Parallel Composition (Extended Abstract) [PDF]
The languages accepted by finite automata are precisely the languages denoted by regular expressions. In contrast, finite automata may exhibit behaviours that cannot be described by regular expressions up to bisimilarity.

From Finite Automata to Regular Expressions and Back—A Summary on Descriptional Complexity [PDF]
The equivalence of finite automata and regular expressions dates back to the seminal paper of Kleene on events in nerve nets and finite automata from 1956. In the present paper we tour a fragment of the literature and summarize results on upper and lower

Algorithms for hidden markov models restricted to occurrences of regular expressions. [PDF]
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are widely used probabilistic models, particularly for annotating sequential data with an underlying hidden structure. Patterns in the annotation are often more relevant to study than the hidden structure itself. A typical HMM

PhyloPattern: regular expressions to identify complex patterns in phylogenetic trees. [PDF]
Background To effectively apply evolutionary concepts in genome-scale studies, large numbers of phylogenetic trees have to be automatically analysed, at a level approaching human expertise.

Which Regular Expression Patterns are Hard to Match? [PDF]
Regular expressions constitute a fundamental notion in formal language theory and are frequently used in computer science to define search patterns. A classic algorithm for these problems constructs and simulates a non-deterministic finite automaton ...

Incremental pattern matching for regular expressions [PDF]
Graph pattern matching lies at the heart of any graph transformation-based system. Incremental pattern matching is one approach proposed for reducingthe overall cost of pattern matching over successive transformations by preserving the matches that stay ...

WebCollectives: A light regular expression based web content extractor in Java
Conventional web crawling methods typically involve a sequence of distinct steps for downloading and extracting web content. A noteworthy limitation of these conventional crawling approaches is their lack of a focus-based crawling strategy.

Regular Expressions with Lookahead [PDF]
This paper investigates regular expressions which in addition to the standard operators of union, concatenation, and Kleene star, have lookaheads. We show how to translate regular expressions with lookaheads (REwLA) to equivalent Boolean automata having ...
