Generalized suffix arrays can be used to solve the pattern matching problem: [5]. Given a pattern and a text , find all occurrences of in .; Using the generalized suffix array of , then first, the suffixes that have as a prefix need to be found.
For example, one might wish to find all occurrences of a "word" despite it having alternate spellings, prefixes or suffixes, etc. Another more complex type of search is regular expression searching, where the user constructs a pattern of characters or other symbols, and any match to the pattern should fulfill the search.
In order to find the number of occurrences of a given string (length ) in a text (length ), [3] We use binary search against the suffix array of T {\displaystyle T} to find the starting and end position of all occurrences of P {\displaystyle P} .
In computer science, the Knuth–Morris–Pratt algorithm (or KMP algorithm) is a string-searching algorithm that searches for occurrences of a "word" W within a main "text string" S by employing the observation that when a mismatch occurs, the word itself embodies sufficient information to determine where the next match could begin, thus bypassing re-examination of previously matched characters.
The Boyer–Moore algorithm searches for occurrences of P in T by performing explicit character comparisons at different alignments. Instead of a brute-force search of all alignments (of which there are n − m + 1 {\displaystyle n-m+1} ), Boyer–Moore uses information gained by preprocessing P to skip as many alignments as possible.
In computer science, a substring index is a data structure which gives substring search in a text or text collection in sublinear time. Once constructed from a document or set of documents, a substring index can be used to locate all occurrences of a pattern in time linear or near-linear in the pattern size, with no dependence or only logarithmic dependence on the document size.
Finding all occurrences of in in (| | +), where is the number of occurrences. It is assumed here that T {\displaystyle T} is given on the input after suffix automaton of S {\displaystyle S} is constructed.
Find all occurrences of the patterns , …, of total length as substrings in (+) time. [ 11 ] Search for a regular expression P in time expected sublinear in n {\displaystyle n} .
