  2. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    Common applications of approximate matching include spell checking. [5] With the availability of large amounts of DNA data, matching of nucleotide sequences has become an important application. [1] Approximate matching is also used in spam filtering. [5] Record linkage is a common application where records from two disparate databases are matched.

  3. Edit distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edit_distance

    Edit distance finds applications in computational biology and natural language processing, e.g. the correction of spelling mistakes or OCR errors, and approximate string matching, where the objective is to find matches for short strings in many longer texts, in situations where a small number of differences is to be expected.

  4. Two-way string-matching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-way_string-matching...

    In computer science, the two-way string-matching algorithm is a string-searching algorithm, discovered by Maxime Crochemore and Dominique Perrin in 1991. [1] It takes a pattern of size m, called a “needle”, preprocesses it in linear time O(m), producing information that can then be used to search for the needle in any “haystack” string, taking only linear time O(n) with n being the ...

  5. String metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_metric

    In mathematics and computer science, a string metric (also known as a string similarity metric or string distance function) is a metric that measures distance ("inverse similarity") between two text strings for approximate string matching or comparison and in fuzzy string searching.

  6. Bitap algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitap_algorithm

    The bitap algorithm (also known as the shift-or, shift-and or Baeza-Yates-Gonnet algorithm) is an approximate string matching algorithm. The algorithm tells whether a given text contains a substring which is "approximately equal" to a given pattern, where approximate equality is defined in terms of Levenshtein distance – if the substring and pattern are within a given distance k of each ...

  9. Fuzzy matching (computer-assisted translation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzy_matching_(computer...

    Fuzzy matching is a technique used in computer-assisted translation as a special case of record linkage.It works with matches that may be less than 100% perfect when finding correspondences between segments of a text and entries in a database of previous translations.
