Abstract:Pattern matching is a pervasive problem in computer science. In several applications (notably, bioinformatics), it is crucial to perform pattern matching on edge-labeled graphs: given a string, decide whether the string can be read on the graph. In this paper we consider the problem of indexing (preprocessing) a graph for pattern matching by building a succinct data structure, that is, a data structure that uses a number of bits close to the lower bounds from information theory, while allowing efficient querie… Show more
