  2. FM-index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM-index

    In computer science, an FM-index is a compressed full-text substring index based on the Burrows–Wheeler transform, with some similarities to the suffix array.It was created by Paolo Ferragina and Giovanni Manzini, [1] who describe it as an opportunistic data structure as it allows compression of the input text while still permitting fast substring queries.

  3. Sphinx (search engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphinx_(search_engine)

    Sphinx is configured to examine a data set via its Indexer. The Indexer process creates a full-text index (a special data structure that enables quick keyword searches) from the given data/text. Full-text fields are the resulting content that is indexed by Sphinx; they can be (quickly) searched for keywords. Fields are named, and you can limit ...

  4. Full-text search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full-text_search

    In text retrieval, full-text search refers to techniques for searching a single computer-stored document or a collection in a full-text database.Full-text search is distinguished from searches based on metadata or on parts of the original texts represented in databases (such as titles, abstracts, selected sections, or bibliographical references).

  5. Recoll - Wikipedia

    Recoll is a desktop search tool that provides full-text search in a GUI with a few mandatory external dependencies. It runs on many Unix-like operating systems and is mostly independent of the desktop environment.

  6. Substring index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substring_index

    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.

  7. Search engine indexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_indexing

    The inverted index is a sparse matrix, since not all words are present in each document. To reduce computer storage memory requirements, it is stored differently from a two dimensional array. The index is similar to the term document matrices employed by latent semantic analysis. The inverted index can be considered a form of a hash table.

  8. String-searching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String-searching_algorithm

    A simple and inefficient way to see where one string occurs inside another is to check at each index, one by one. First, we see if there is a copy of the needle starting at the first character of the haystack; if not, we look to see if there's a copy of the needle starting at the second character of the haystack, and so forth.

  9. Web crawler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_crawler

    WebCrawler was used to build the first publicly available full-text index of a subset of the Web. It was based on lib-WWW to download pages, and another program to parse and order URLs for breadth-first exploration of the Web graph. It also included a real-time crawler that followed links based on the similarity of the anchor text with the ...
