An Extension of the String-to-String Correction Problem
Open accessAbstract
The string-to-string correction problem asks for a sequence S of "edit operations" of minimal cost such that ~(A) = B, for given strings A and B. The edit operations previously investigated allow changing one symbol of a string into another single symbol, deleting one symbol from a string, or inserting a single symbol into a string.This paper extends the set of allowable edit operations to include the operation of interchanging the positions of two adjacent characters Under certain restrictions on edit-operation costs, it is shown that the extended problem can still be solved in time proportional to the product of the lengths of the given strings.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
