Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We present fast algorithms for computing the largest common subtree (LOST) and for computing optimal alignment when two similar unordered trees are given. We present an O(4^Kn) time algorithm for the LCST problem for rooted trees, where n is the maximum size of two input trees and K is the minimum number of edit operations to obtain LCST. We extend this algorithm to unrooted trees and obtain an O(K4^Kn) time algorithm. We also show that the alignment problem in rooted and unordered trees of bounded degree can be solved in linear time if K is bounded by a constant.
