Description
Dissertação apresentada na Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Engenharia Informática This dissertation studies and implements a dynamic fully compressed suffix tree. Suffix trees are important algorithms in stringology and provide optimal solutions for myriads of problems. Suffix trees are used, in bioinformatics to index large volumes of data. For most aplications suffix trees need to be efficient in size and funcionality. Until recently they were very large, suffix trees for the 700 megabyte human genome spawn 40 gigabytes of data. The compressed suffix tree requires less space and the recent static fully compressed suffix tree requires even less space, in fact it requires optimal compressed space. However since it is static it is not suitable for dynamic environments. Chan et. al.[3] proposed the first dynamic compressed suffix tree however the space used for a text of size n is O(n log )bits which is far from the new static solutions. Our goal is to implement a recent proposal by Russo, Arlindo and Navarro[22] that defines a dynamic fully compressed suffix tree and uses only nH0 +O(n log ) bits of space.
