| Abstract(in English) | The problem is finding the nearest string, measured by edit distance, to a query string q from a set T of strings. Here indexing of T is assumed. Conventional indexing methods construct indexes mainly from the distances between elements in T. In the proposed method, the nature of strings is introduced to enhancing indexing and searching. We introduce n-gram distance as an approximation of edit distance for faster construction of the VP-trees which are search trees in metric spaces. The method succeeded to speed up the construction of VP-trees at a factor of 1/8, without increasing searching time. |
