Approximate Repeating Pattern Mining with Gap Requirements

In this paper, we define a new research problem for mining approximate repeating patterns (ARP) with gap constraints, where the appearance of a pattern is subject to an approximate matching, which is very common in biological sciences. To solve the problem, we propose an ArpGap (Approximate repeating pattern mining with Gap constraints) algorithm with three major components for approximate repeating pattern mining: (1) a data-driven pattern...
