Abstract

We consider an on-line string matching problem in which we find all the occurrences of a pattern of m characters in a text of n characters, where all the characters of the pattern are available before processing while the characters of the text are input one after the other. We propose a space-time optimal parallel algorithm for this problem using a neural network approach. This algorithm uses m McCulloch-Pitts neurons connected as a linear array. It processes every input character of the text in one step and hence it requires at most n iteration steps.
