Boyer–Moore string search algorithm
Download as PPTX, PDF8 likes2,139 views
The document describes the Boyer-Moore string search algorithm, which improves on the naive string matching algorithm. It uses two rules - the bad character rule and good suffix rule - to skip unnecessary character comparisons, making string searches more efficient. The bad character rule uses a table to determine how far to shift the pattern when a mismatch occurs, while the good suffix rule allows reusing matches when they are found. Together these rules allow Boyer-Moore to significantly outperform the naive algorithm.

- 25. BUILDING BCR TABLE • Length – index – 1 • The BCR value can’t be less than 1 • If we have repeated letters we count the minimum BCR value, because it should be the rightmost occurrence of the letter • We use symbol “*” for any other letter that is not in the pattern and the BC value is the length of the pattern, because we can skip the whole pattern knowing that character “*” is not in the pattern.

- 28. SECOND RULE: GOOD SUFFIX RULE (GSR) It used when we have some successful matches Reusing the already matched string
- 29. SECOND RULE: GOOD SUFFIX RULE (GSR) 6 shifts
- 30. BOTH RULES TOGETHER At each step when we get a mismatch and we want to shift, the algorithm use both rules and use the bigger shift
- 31. BOTH RULES TOGETHER Letter T C G * BCR 2 3 1 10 BCR = 2 shifts GSR = 6 shifts
