The problems to compute the distances or similarities of multiple strings have been vigorously studied in such diverse fields as pattern matching, web searching, bioinformatics, computer security, etc. One well-known method to compare multiple strings in the given set is finding a consensus string which is a representative of the given set. There are two objective functions that are frequently used to find a consensus string, one is the radius and the other is the consensus error. The radius of a string x with respect to a set S of strings is the smallest number r such that the distance between the string x and each string in S is at most r. A consensus string based on radius is a string that minimizes the radius with respect to a given set. The consensus error of a string with respect to a given set S is the sum of the distances between x and all the strings in S. A consensus string of S based on consensus error is a string that minimizes the consensus error with respect to S. In this paper, we show that the problem of finding a consensus string based on radius is NP-complete when the distance function is a metric.

Finding similar strings is an important operation because textual data can have errors, duplications, and inconsistencies by nature. Many algorithms have been developed for string approximate searches and most of them make use of inverted lists to find similar strings. These algorithms basically perform merge operations on inverted lists. In this paper, we develop a bitmap representation of an inverted list and propose an efficient search algorithm that can skip unnecessary inverted lists without searching using bitmap filters. Experimental results show that the proposed technique consistently improve the performance of the search.

The advances of computer hardware and information processing technologies raise the needs of multimedia information retrieval systems. Up to date. multimedia information systems have been developed for text information and image information. Nowadays. the multimedia information systems for video and audio information. especially for musical information have been grown up more and more. In recent music information retrieval systems. not only the information retrieval based on meta-information such like composer and title but also the content-based information retrieval is supported. The content-based information retrieval in music information retrieval systems utilize the similarity value between the user query and the music information stored in music database. In tbis paper. hence. we developed a similarity computation algorithm in which the pitches and lengths of each corresponding pair of notes are used as the fundamental factors for similarity computation between musical information. We also make an experiment of the proposed algorithm to validate its appropriateness. From the experimental results. the proposed similarity computation algorithm is shown to be able to correctly check whether two music files are analogous to each other or not based on melodies.

Since the size of biosequence database grows exponentially every year, it becomes impractical to use Smith-Waterman algorithm for exact sequence similarity search. For fast sequence similarity search, researchers have been proposed heuristic methods that use the frequency of characters in subsequences. These methods have the defect that different sequences are treated as the same sequence. Because of using only the frequency of characters, the accuracy of these methods are lower than Smith-Waterman algorithm. In this paper, we propose an algorithm which processes query efficiently by indexing the frequency of characters including the positional information of characters in subsequences. The experiments show that our algorithm improve the accuracy of sequence similarity search approximately 5${\sim}$20% than heuristic algorithms using only the frequency of characters.

Motion capture technology is widely used for manufacturing animation since it produces high quality character motion similar to the actual motion of the human body. However, motion capture has a significant weakness due to the lack of an industry wide standard for archiving and retrieving motion capture data. In this paper, we propose a framework to integrate, store and retrieve heterogeneous motion capture data files effectively. We define a standard format for integrating different motion capture file formats. Our standard format is called MCML (Motion Capture Markup Language). It is a markup language based on XML (eXtensible Markup Language). The purpose of MCML is not only to facilitate the conversion or integration of different formats, but also to allow for greater reusability of motion capture data, through the construction of a motion database storing the MCML documents. We propose a fuzzy string searching method to retrieve certain MCML documents including strings approximately matched with keywords. The method can be used to retrieve desired series of frames included in MCML documents not entire MCML documents.

컴퓨터 사용증가와 함께 컴퓨터 바이러스 또한 증가하고 있다. 바이러스 검사 프로그램은 바이러스의 특정 문자열(signature)을 찾아 문자열 검색도구와 프로세스의 행동을 모니터링 하는 감시도구(general purpose monitor)의 두 가지 형태가 있으며, 각각은 미 발견 바이러스에 대한 취약성과 시스템 오버헤드를 단점으로 가지고 있다. 또한, 최근에 제안된 면역 시스템은 계산 복잡도나 시스템 구성면에서 지나친 부담을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 바이러스들의 행위를 추출 할 수 있도록 하기 위하여, 언어 압축 알고리즘을 이용하여 바이러스 행동 패턴을 추출하는 방법을 고안하였고, 몇 가지 바이러스를 이용하여 실험해 보았다. 그 결과 실제 학습에 이용한 바이러스가 아니더라도 유사한 동작을 하는 바이러스에 대해서는 면역성을 가질 수 있었다.

Most smartphone use virtual keypads based on touch-pad. The virtual keypads often make typographical errors because of the physical limitations of device such as small screen and limited input methods. To resolve this problem, many similar word-finding methods have been studied. In the paper, we propose an edit distance method (a well-known string similarity measure) that is modified to consider various types of virtual keypads. The proposed method effectively covers typographical errors in various keypads by converting an input string into a physical key sequence and by reflecting characteristics of virtual keypads to edit scores. In the experiments with various keypads, the proposed method showed better performances than a typical edit distance method.

Similarity matching in video database is of growing importance in many new applications such as video clustering and digital video libraries. In order to provide efficient access to relevant data in large databases, there have been many research efforts in video indexing with diverse spatial and temporal features. however, most of the previous works relied on sequential matching methods or memory-based inverted file techniques, thus making them unsuitable for a large volume of video databases. In order to resolve this problem, this paper proposes an effective and scalable indexing technique using a trie, originally proposed for string matching, as an index structure. For building an index, we convert each frame into a symbol sequence using a window order heuristic and build a disk-resident trie from a set of symbol sequences. For query processing, we perform a depth-first search on the trie and execute a temporal segmentation. To verify the superiority of our approach, we perform several experiments with real and synthetic data sets. The results reveal that our approach consistently outperforms the sequential scan method, and the performance gain is maintained even with a large volume of video databases.

Recently, the study of efficient way to store and retrieve enormous music data is becoming the one of important issues in the multimedia database. Most general method of MIR (Music Information Retrieval) includes a text-based approach using text information to search a desired music. However, if users did not remember the keyword about the music, it can not give them correct answers. Moreover, since these types of systems are implemented only for exact matching between the query and music data, it can not mine any information on similar music data. Thus, these systems are inappropriate to achieve similarity matching of music data. In order to solve the problem, we propose an Efficient Query-By-Humming System (EQBHS) with a content-based indexing method that efficiently retrieve and store music when a user inquires with his incorrect humming. For the purpose of accelerating query processing in EQBHS, we design indices for significant melodies, which are 1) frequent melodies occurring many times in a single music, on the assumption that users are to hum what they can easily remember and 2) melodies partitioned by rests. In addition, we propose an error tolerated mapping method from a note to a character to make searching efficient, and the frequent melody extraction algorithm. We verified the assumption for frequent melodies by making up questions and compared the performance of the proposed EQBHS with N-gram by executing various experiments with a number of music data.
