Pawel Gawrychowski from Max Planck Institute Gives a Seminar Talk about “Pattern Matching in LZW-Compressed Texts” on Thu 26th Jan
The talk will be held on 26th Jan at 15:15-16:00 in TUAS-building, hall 1023-1024, Otaniementie 17, Espoo. Abstract Pattern matching is a basic text-processing problem and its complexity seems well understood when we are given an explicit representation of the input. With the recent explosion in the amount of digital data we need to process, however, we should aim to develop solutions that work directly with compressed input. For example, we should try to come up with pattern-matching algorithms that work with compressed representations of both the pattern and the text. I will present some ideas behind a linear-time solution of this … Read more
