Breaking a Barrier in Constructing Compact Indexes for Parameterized Pattern Matching

Authors: Kento Iseri, Tomohiro I, Diptarama Hendrian, Dominik Köppl, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
A parameterized string (p-string) is a string over an alphabet (Σ_s ∪ Σ_p), where Σ_s and Σ_p are disjoint alphabets for static symbols (s-symbols) and for parameter symbols (p-symbols), respectively. Two p-strings x and y are said to parameterized match (p-match) if and only if x can be transformed into y by applying a bijection on Σ_p to every occurrence of p-symbols in x. The indexing problem for p-matching is to preprocess a p-string T of length n so that we can efficiently find the occurrences of substrings of T that p-match with a given pattern. Let σ_s and respectively σ_p be the numbers of distinct s-symbols and p-symbols that appear in T and σ = σ_s + σ_p. Extending the Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) based index for exact string pattern matching, Ganguly et al. [SODA 2017] proposed parameterized BWTs (pBWTs) to design the first compact index for p-matching, and posed an open problem on how to construct the pBWT-based index in compact space, i.e., in O(n lg |Σ_s ∪ Σ_p|) bits of space. Hashimoto et al. [SPIRE 2022] showed how to construct the pBWT for T, under the assumption that Σ_s ∪ Σ_p = [0..O(σ)], in O(n lg σ) bits of space and O(n (σ_p lg n)/(lg lg n)) time in an online manner while reading the symbols of T from right to left. In this paper, we refine Hashimoto et al.’s algorithm to work in O(n lg σ) bits of space and O(n (lg σ_p lg n)/(lg lg n)) time in a more general assumption that Σ_s ∪ Σ_p = [0..n^{O(1)}]. Our result has an immediate application to constructing parameterized suffix arrays in O(n (lg σ_p lg n)/(lg lg n)) time and O(n lg σ) bits of working space. We also show that our data structure can support backward search, a core procedure of BWT-based indexes, at any stage of the online construction, making it the first compact index for p-matching that can be constructed in compact space and even in an online manner.

Algorithms for Galois Words: Detection, Factorization, and Rotation

Authors: Diptarama Hendrian, Dominik Köppl, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 296, 35th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2024)

Abstract
Lyndon words are extensively studied in combinatorics on words - they play a crucial role on upper bounding the number of runs a word can have [Bannai+, SIAM J. Comput.'17]. We can determine Lyndon words, factorize a word into Lyndon words in lexicographically non-increasing order, and find the Lyndon rotation of a word, all in linear time within constant additional working space. A recent research interest emerged from the question of what happens when we change the lexicographic order, which is at the heart of the definition of Lyndon words. In particular, the alternating order, where the order of all odd positions becomes reversed, has been recently proposed. While a Lyndon word is, among all its cyclic rotations, the smallest one with respect to the lexicographic order, a Galois word exhibits the same property by exchanging the lexicographic order with the alternating order. Unfortunately, this exchange has a large impact on the properties Galois words exhibit, which makes it a nontrivial task to translate results from Lyndon words to Galois words. Up until now, it has only been conjectured that linear-time algorithms with constant additional working space in the spirit of Duval’s algorithm are possible for computing the Galois factorization or the Galois rotation. Here, we affirm this conjecture as follows. Given a word T of length n, we can determine whether T is a Galois word, in O(n) time with constant additional working space. Within the same complexities, we can also determine the Galois rotation of T, and compute the Galois factorization of T online. The last result settles Open Problem 1 in [Dolce et al., TCS 2019] for Galois words.

Parallel Algorithm for Pattern Matching Problems Under Substring Consistent Equivalence Relations

Authors: Davaajav Jargalsaikhan, Diptarama Hendrian, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 223, 33rd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2022)

Abstract
Given a text and a pattern over an alphabet, the pattern matching problem searches for all occurrences of the pattern in the text. An equivalence relation ≈ is a substring consistent equivalence relation (SCER), if for two strings X and Y, X ≈ Y implies |X| = |Y| and X[i:j] ≈ Y[i:j] for all 1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ |X|. In this paper, we propose an efficient parallel algorithm for pattern matching under any SCER using the "duel-and-sweep" paradigm. For a pattern of length m and a text of length n, our algorithm runs in O(ξ_m^t log³ m) time and O(ξ_m^w ⋅ n log² m) work, with O(τ_n^t + ξ_m^t log² m) time and O(τ_n^w + ξ_m^w ⋅ m log² m) work preprocessing on the Priority Concurrent Read Concurrent Write Parallel Random-Access Machines (P-CRCW PRAM), where τ_n^t, τ_n^w, ξ_m^t, and ξ_m^w are parameters dependent on SCERs, which are often linear in n and m, respectively.

Fast and Linear-Time String Matching Algorithms Based on the Distances of q-Gram Occurrences

Authors: Satoshi Kobayashi, Diptarama Hendrian, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 160, 18th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2020)

Abstract
Given a text T of length n and a pattern P of length m, the string matching problem is a task to find all occurrences of P in T. In this study, we propose an algorithm that solves this problem in O((n + m)q) time considering the distance between two adjacent occurrences of the same q-gram contained in P. We also propose a theoretical improvement of it which runs in O(n + m) time, though it is not necessarily faster in practice. We compare the execution times of our and existing algorithms on various kinds of real and artificial datasets such as an English text, a genome sequence and a Fibonacci string. The experimental results show that our algorithm is as fast as the state-of-the-art algorithms in many cases, particularly when a pattern frequently appears in a text.

Detecting k-(Sub-)Cadences and Equidistant Subsequence Occurrences

Authors: Mitsuru Funakoshi, Yuto Nakashima, Shunsuke Inenaga, Hideo Bannai, Masayuki Takeda, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 161, 31st Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2020)

Abstract
The equidistant subsequence pattern matching problem is considered. Given a pattern string P and a text string T, we say that P is an equidistant subsequence of T if P is a subsequence of the text such that consecutive symbols of P in the occurrence are equally spaced. We can consider the problem of equidistant subsequences as generalizations of (sub-)cadences. We give bit-parallel algorithms that yield o(n²) time algorithms for finding k-(sub-)cadences and equidistant subsequences. Furthermore, O(nlog² n) and O(nlog n) time algorithms, respectively for equidistant and Abelian equidistant matching for the case |P| = 3, are shown. The algorithms make use of a technique that was recently introduced which can efficiently compute convolutions with linear constraints.

In-Place Bijective Burrows-Wheeler Transforms

Authors: Dominik Köppl, Daiki Hashimoto, Diptarama Hendrian, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 161, 31st Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2020)

Abstract
One of the most well-known variants of the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) [Burrows and Wheeler, 1994] is the bijective BWT (BBWT) [Gil and Scott, arXiv 2012], which applies the extended BWT (EBWT) [Mantaci et al., TCS 2007] to the multiset of Lyndon factors of a given text. Since the EBWT is invertible, the BBWT is a bijective transform in the sense that the inverse image of the EBWT restores this multiset of Lyndon factors such that the original text can be obtained by sorting these factors in non-increasing order. In this paper, we present algorithms constructing or inverting the BBWT in-place using quadratic time. We also present conversions from the BBWT to the BWT, or vice versa, either (a) in-place using quadratic time, or (b) in the run-length compressed setting using 𝒪(n lg r / lg lg r) time with 𝒪(r lg n) bits of words, where r is the sum of character runs in the BWT and the BBWT.

DAWGs for Parameterized Matching: Online Construction and Related Indexing Structures

Authors: Katsuhito Nakashima, Noriki Fujisato, Diptarama Hendrian, Yuto Nakashima, Ryo Yoshinaka, Shunsuke Inenaga, Hideo Bannai, Ayumi Shinohara, and Masayuki Takeda

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 161, 31st Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2020)

Abstract
Two strings x and y over Σ ∪ Π of equal length are said to parameterized match (p-match) if there is a renaming bijection f:Σ ∪ Π → Σ ∪ Π that is identity on Σ and transforms x to y (or vice versa). The p-matching problem is to look for substrings in a text that p-match a given pattern. In this paper, we propose parameterized suffix automata (p-suffix automata) and parameterized directed acyclic word graphs (PDAWGs) which are the p-matching versions of suffix automata and DAWGs. While suffix automata and DAWGs are equivalent for standard strings, we show that p-suffix automata can have Θ(n²) nodes and edges but PDAWGs have only O(n) nodes and edges, where n is the length of an input string. We also give O(n |Π| log (|Π| + |Σ|))-time O(n)-space algorithm that builds the PDAWG in a left-to-right online manner. As a byproduct, it is shown that the parameterized suffix tree for the reversed string can also be built in the same time and space, in a right-to-left online manner.

Position Heaps for Parameterized Strings

Authors: Diptarama Diptarama, Takashi Katsura, Yuhei Otomo, Kazuyuki Narisawa, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 78, 28th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2017)

Abstract
We propose a new indexing structure for parameterized strings, called parameterized position heap. Parameterized position heap is applicable for parameterized pattern matching problem, where the pattern matches a substring of the text if there exists a bijective mapping from the symbols of the pattern to the symbols of the substring. We propose an online construction algorithm of parameterized position heap of a text and show that our algorithm runs in linear time with respect to the text size. We also show that by using parameterized position heap, we can find all occurrences of a pattern in the text in linear time with respect to the product of the pattern size and the alphabet size.

An Efficient Algorithm to Test Square-Freeness of Strings Compressed by Balanced Straight Line Program

Authors: Wataru Matsubara, Shunsuke Inenaga, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)

Abstract
In this paper we study the problem of deciding whether a given compressed string contains a square. A string x is called a square if x = zz and z = u^k implies k = 1 and u = z. A string w is said to be square-free if no substrings of w are squares. Many efficient algorithms to test if a given string is square-free, have been developed so far. However, very little is known for testing square-freeness of a given compressed string. In this paper, we give an O(max(n^2; n log^2 N))-time O(n^2)-space solution to test square-freeness of a given compressed string, where n and N are the size of a given compressed string and the corresponding decompressed string, respectively. Our input strings are compressed by balanced straight line program (BSLP). We remark that BSLP has exponential compression, that is, N = O(2^n). Hence no decompress-then-test approaches can be better than our method in the worst case.
