Pattern Recognition and String Matching

From the reviews: "This edited volume is concerned with pattern recognition with an evident focus on string matching treated as one of the fundamentals in the area. The collection of contributed papers is a clear testimony to the recent developments and research directions. ... Overall, the book is a comprehensive, well-focused and carefully organized compendium of recent developments in string-oriented pattern recognition - of high interest to researchers and practitioners in string-oriented pattern recognition."
