In computer science, string-searching algorithms, sometimes called string-matching algorithms, are an important class of string algorithms that try to...

for approximate string matching or comparison and in fuzzy string searching. A requirement for a string metric (e.g. in contrast to string matching) is...

to substitute the matching pattern with some other token sequence (i.e., search and replace). Sequence patterns (e.g., a text string) are often described...

agrep (approximate grep) is an open-source approximate string matching program, developed by Udi Manber and Sun Wu between 1988 and 1991, for use with...

allows matching at a phrasal level. It is used when the translator is working with translation memory (TM). It uses approximate string matching. When an...
