Arbitrary-Length Analogs to de Bruijn Sequences

Authors: Abhinav Nellore and Rachel Ward

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

Abstract
Let α̃ be a length-L cyclic sequence of characters from a size-K alphabet 𝒜 such that for every positive integer m ≤ L, the number of occurrences of any length-m string on 𝒜 as a substring of α̃ is ⌊ L / K^m ⌋ or ⌈ L / K^m ⌉. When L = K^N for any positive integer N, α̃ is a de Bruijn sequence of order N, and when L ≠ K^N, α̃ shares many properties with de Bruijn sequences. We describe an algorithm that outputs some α̃ for any combination of K ≥ 2 and L ≥ 1 in O(L) time using O(L log K) space. This algorithm extends Lempel’s recursive construction of a binary de Bruijn sequence. An implementation written in Python is available at https://github.com/nelloreward/pkl.

An Invertible Transform for Efficient String Matching in Labeled Digraphs

Authors: Abhinav Nellore, Austin Nguyen, and Reid F. Thompson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 191, 32nd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2021)

Abstract
Let G = (V, E) be a digraph where each vertex is unlabeled, each edge is labeled by a character in some alphabet Ω, and any two edges with both the same head and the same tail have different labels. The powerset construction gives a transform of G into a weakly connected digraph G' = (V', E') that enables solving the decision problem of whether there is a walk in G matching an arbitrarily long query string q in time linear in |q| and independent of |E| and |V|. We show G is uniquely determined by G' when for every v_𝓁 ∈ V, there is some distinct string s_𝓁 on Ω such that v_𝓁 is the origin of a closed walk in G matching s_𝓁, and no other walk in G matches s_𝓁 unless it starts and ends at v_𝓁. We then exploit this invertibility condition to strategically alter any G so its transform G' enables retrieval of all t terminal vertices of walks in the unaltered G matching q in O(|q| + t log |V|) time. We conclude by proposing two defining properties of a class of transforms that includes the Burrows-Wheeler transform and the transform presented here.

Fast Cross-Polytope Locality-Sensitive Hashing

Authors: Christopher Kennedy and Rachel Ward

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 67, 8th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2017)

Abstract
We provide a variant of cross-polytope locality sensitive hashing with respect to angular distance which is provably optimal in asymptotic sensitivity and enjoys \mathcal{O}(d \ln d ) hash computation time. Building on a recent result in (Andoni, Indyk, Laarhoven, Razenshteyn '15), we show that optimal asymptotic sensitivity for cross-polytope LSH is retained even when the dense Gaussian matrix is replaced by a fast Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform followed by discrete pseudo-rotation, reducing the hash computation time from \mathcal{O}(d^2) to \mathcal{O}(d \ln d ). Moreover, our scheme achieves the optimal rate of convergence for sensitivity. By incorporating a low-randomness Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform, our scheme can be modified to require only \mathcal{O}(\ln^9(d)) random bits.
