  2. Krauss wildcard-matching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krauss_wildcard-matching...

    In computer science, the Krauss wildcard-matching algorithm is a pattern matching algorithm. Based on the wildcard syntax in common use, e.g. in the Microsoft Windows command-line interface, the algorithm provides a non-recursive mechanism for matching patterns in software applications, based on syntax simpler than that typically offered by regular expressions.

  3. Matching wildcards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_wildcards

    In computer science, an algorithm for matching wildcards (also known as globbing) is useful in comparing text strings that may contain wildcard syntax. [1] Common uses of these algorithms include command-line interfaces, e.g. the Bourne shell [2] or Microsoft Windows command-line [3] or text editor or file manager, as well as the interfaces for some search engines [4] and databases. [5]

  4. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    The picture shows two strings where the problem has multiple solutions. Although the substring occurrences always overlap, it is impossible to obtain a longer common substring by "uniting" them. The strings "ABABC", "BABCA" and "ABCBA" have only one longest common substring, viz. "ABC" of length 3.

  5. wildmat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildmat

    wildmat is a pattern matching library developed by Rich Salz.Based on the wildcard syntax already used in the Bourne shell, wildmat provides a uniform mechanism for matching patterns across applications with simpler syntax than that typically offered by regular expressions.

  6. Word RAM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_RAM

    The dynamic predecessor problem is also commonly analyzed in the word RAM model, and was the original motivation for the model. Dan Willard used y-fast tries to solve this in O ( log ⁡ w ) {\displaystyle O(\log w)} time, or, more precisely, O ( log ⁡ log ⁡ U ) {\displaystyle O(\log \log U)} where U is a bound on the values stored.

  7. Combinatorics on words - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorics_on_words

    For example, the word "encyclopedia" is a sequence of symbols in the English alphabet, a finite set of twenty-six letters. Since a word can be described as a sequence, other basic mathematical descriptions can be applied. The alphabet is a set, so as one would expect, the empty set is a subset. In other words, there exists a unique word of ...

  8. List update problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_update_problem

    The List Update or the List Access problem is a simple model used in the study of competitive analysis of online algorithms.Given a set of items in a list where the cost of accessing an item is proportional to its distance from the head of the list, e.g. a linked List, and a request sequence of accesses, the problem is to come up with a strategy of reordering the list so that the total cost of ...

  9. Boolean model of information retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_model_of...

    The (standard) Boolean model of information retrieval (BIR) [1] is a classical information retrieval (IR) model and, at the same time, the first and most-adopted one. [2] The BIR is based on Boolean logic and classical set theory in that both the documents to be searched and the user's query are conceived as sets of terms (a bag-of-words model).
