Compressing Suffix Trees by Path Decompositions
Ruben Becker, Davide Cenzato, Travis Gagie +4
The suffix tree is arguably the most fundamental data structure on strings: introduced by Weiner (SWAT 1973) and McCreight (JACM 1976), it allows solving a myriad of computational…
Incongruity-sensitive access to highly compressed strings
Ferdinando Cicalese, Zsuzsanna Lipták, Travis Gagie +3
Random access to highly compressed strings -- represented by straight-line programs or Lempel-Ziv parses, for example -- is a well-studied topic. Random access to such strings in s…
Prefix-free parsing for merging big BWTs
Diego Diaz-Dominguez, Travis Gagie, Veronica Guerrini +5
When building Burrows-Wheeler Transforms (BWTs) of truly huge datasets, prefix-free parsing (PFP) can use an unreasonable amount of memory. In this paper we show how if a dataset c…
The Trie Measure, Revisited
Jarno N. Alanko, Ruben Becker, Davide Cenzato +4
In this paper, we study the following problem: given subsets of an integer universe , having total cardinality ,…
Suffixient Arrays: a New Efficient Suffix Array Compression Technique
Davide Cenzato, Lore Depuydt, Travis Gagie +4
The Suffix Array is a classic text index enabling on-line pattern matching queries via simple binary search. The main drawback of the Suffix Array is that it takes linear space in…
