Rapid identification of repeated patterns in strings, trees and arrays

Karp, Richard M., Miller, Raymond E., Rosenberg, Arnold L.·1972·Proceedings of the fourth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing - STOC '72

Abstract

In this paper we look at a number of matching problems and devise general techniques for attacking such problems. In particular, we describe a strategy for constructing efficient algorithms for solving two types of matching problems. We use this strategy to develop explicit algorithms for these two problems applied to strings (where the patterns are substrings) and arrays (where the patterns are subarrays or blocks). We also develop algorithms for these and related problems for trees, where the patterns are subtrees. Certain special cases of these algorithms are also discussed.

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.
