  2. Longest palindromic substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_palindromic_substring

    In computer science, the longest palindromic substring or longest symmetric factor problem is the problem of finding a maximum-length contiguous substring of a given string that is also a palindrome. For example, the longest palindromic substring of "bananas" is "anana". The longest palindromic substring is not guaranteed to be unique; for ...

  3. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    The variable z is used to hold the length of the longest common substring found so far. The set ret is used to hold the set of strings which are of length z. The set ret can be saved efficiently by just storing the index i, which is the last character of the longest common substring (of size z) instead of S[(i-z+1)..i].

  4. Palindrome tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palindrome_Tree

    In computer science a palindrome tree, also called an EerTree, [1] is a type of search tree, that allows for fast access to all palindromes contained in a string.They can be used to solve the longest palindromic substring, the k-factorization problem [2] (can a given string be divided into exactly k palindromes), palindromic length of a string [3] (what is the minimum number of palindromes ...

  5. Longest common subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_subsequence

    A longest common subsequence (LCS) is the longest subsequence common to all sequences in a set of sequences (often just two sequences). It differs from the longest common substring : unlike substrings, subsequences are not required to occupy consecutive positions within the original sequences.

  6. LCP array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCP_array

    It stores the lengths of the longest common prefixes (LCPs) between all pairs of consecutive suffixes in a sorted suffix array. For example, if A := [aab, ab, abaab, b, baab] is a suffix array, the longest common prefix between A[1] = aab and A[2] = ab is a which has length 1, so H[2] = 1 in the LCP array H.

  7. Suffix tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffix_tree

    Finding the longest repeated substring; Finding the longest common substring; Finding the longest palindrome in a string; Suffix trees are often used in bioinformatics applications, searching for patterns in DNA or protein sequences (which can be viewed as long strings of characters). The ability to search efficiently with mismatches might be ...

  8. Gestalt pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestalt_Pattern_Matching

    The similarity of two strings and is determined by this formula: twice the number of matching characters divided by the total number of characters of both strings. The matching characters are defined as some longest common substring [3] plus recursively the number of matching characters in the non-matching regions on both sides of the longest common substring: [2] [4]

  9. Chvátal–Sankoff constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chvátal–Sankoff_constants

    Compute a longest common subsequence of these two strings, and let , be the random variable whose value is the length of this subsequence. Then the expected value of λ n , k {\displaystyle \lambda _{n,k}} is (up to lower-order terms) proportional to n , and the k th Chvátal–Sankoff constant γ k {\displaystyle \gamma _{k}} is the constant ...
