Modify Levenshtein-Distance to ignore order

岁酱吖の 提交于 2019-12-10 15:08:12
问题 I'm looking to compute the the Levenshtein-distance between sequences containing up to 6 values. The order of these values should not affect the distance. How would I implement this into the iterative or recursive algorithm? Example: # Currently >>> LDistance('dog', 'god') 2 # Sorted >>> LDistance('dgo', 'dgo') 0 # Proposed >>> newLDistance('dog', 'god') 0 'dog' and 'god' have the exact same letters, sorting the strings before hand will return the desired result. However this doesn't work all

How to find all strings at a given edit distance from a given string

问题 We all have seen in Google, that if we type a query, and make a typo, Google suggests a saner version of the query (which is correct more often than not). Now how do they do it? One possible way I can think of is find out all other strings at an edit distance of 1 from the given string, and if any on of them returns a string with a higher value 'searched` attribute (might come from back-end DB, where each indexed query term has a weight associated with it based on how frequently that term

问题 I have been working all day with a problem which I can't seem to get a handle on. The task is to show that a recursive implementation of edit distance has the time complexity Ω(2 max(n,m) ) where n & m are the length of the words being measured. The implementation is comparable to this small python example def lev(a, b): if("" == a): return len(b) # returns if a is an empty string if("" == b): return len(a) # returns if b is an empty string return min(lev(a[:-1], b[:-1])+(a[-1] != b[-1]), lev

问题 I read a lot of theory on computing graph edit distance (GED), or other graph similarity measures (such as http://goo.gl/gmDMgA) but I'm failing to find tools to accomplish such computations. Is there a programming library or softwares that computes graph edit distances, or, once again, any other graph similarity measures, between two graphs? 回答1: There are at least three possibilities for software to compute graph edit distance: GEDEVO , is a software tool for solving the network alignment

Algorithm to find edit distance to all substrings

问题 Given 2 strings s and t . I need to find for each substring in s edit distance(Levenshtein distance) to t . Actually I need to know for each i position in s what is the minimum edit distance for all substrings started at position i . For example: t = "ab" s = "sdabcb" And I need to get something like: {2,1,0,2,2} Explanation: 1st position: distance("ab", "sd") = 4 ( 2*subst ) distance("ab", "sda") = 3( 2*delete + insert ) distance("ab", "sdab") = 2 ( 2 * delete) distance("ab", "sdabc") = 3 (

Closed . This question needs to be more focused . It is not currently accepting answers. Want to improve this question? Update the question so it focuses on one problem only by editing this post . Closed 5 years ago . Problem: I know the trivial edit distance DP formulation and computation in O(mn) for 2 strings of size n and m respectively. But I recently came to know that if we only need to calculate the minimum value of edit distance f and it is bounded |f|<=s, then we can calculate it in O(min(m,n) + s^2) or O(s*min(m,n)) [wikipedia] time. Please explain the dp formulation behind it if
