在构造后缀数组之前在 Python 中指定字符串结尾标记
我正在 http://portal.acm.org/itation.cfm?id 中实现算法=1813708 利用后缀数组来查找最长公共子串。这些算法涉及为字符串构造一个后缀数组,该数组是一组给定字符串与称为哨兵的字符串分隔符的串联。例如,如果给定字符串 a、b 和 c,则会创建一个新字符串 d,即 a$1b$2c$3,其中 $1、$2、$3 是标记每个字符串末尾的哨兵字符。哨兵字符必须是唯一的,并且按字典顺序小于 a、b 和 c 中的所有其他字符。
我的问题围绕 Python 中哨兵字符的表示。如果 a、b 和 c 是 ASCII 字符串,我想我可能需要将这些字符串转换为 UTF-8 并将它们的范围从 0-127 移动到更高的范围,以便可用的字符按字典顺序少于琴弦。如果这看起来合理,那么在 Python 中重新映射字符以使它们的范围为 N-127+N(其中 N 是提供的字符串数量)的最有效机制是什么?
I'm implementing algorithms in http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1813708 that utilize suffix arrays to find longest common substrings. The algorithms involve constructing a suffix array for a string that is the concatenation of a set of given strings with string separators called sentinels. So for example, if we are given the strings a, b and c, a new string d is created which is a$1b$2c$3 where $1, $2, $3 are the sentinel characters marking the ends of each string. The sentinel characters must be unique and lexicographically less than all other characters in a, b and c.
My question revolves around the representation of the sentinel characters in Python. If a, b and c are ASCII strings, I'm thinking I might need to convert those strings to UTF-8 and shift their range from 0-127 to a higher range such that there are characters available that are lexicographically less than those in the strings. If that seems reasonable, what is the most efficient mechanism for remapping the characters in Python such that their range is N-127+N where N is the number of strings provided?

您可以使用 Unicode(而非 UTF-8)字符串来执行此操作。在 Python 3 中,所有字符串都是 Unicode,但在 Python 2 中,您需要
u
前缀(即"hello"
不是 Unicode,而是u"world"< /代码> 是)。
对于 Python 3,这会稍微简单一些:
You can do this using Unicode (not UTF-8) strings. In Python 3, all strings are Unicode but in Python 2, you need the
u
prefix (ie."hello"
is not Unicode butu"world"
is).For Python 3, this would be slightly simpler:
我认为你应该使用分词器并用整数替换每个字符串。那么对于哨兵来说,就会剩下大量的整数。也许,使用较大的整数作为哨兵比使用较小的整数更方便。对于打印输出,您可以使用任何您想要的 Unicode 字符,并且您也可以对所有这些字符使用相同的字符。
您是否正在实施 Yamamoto &教会?如果是这样,请在开始之前查看一些较新的文献。我推荐 Abouelhoda 等人的扩展后缀数组和 Kim, Kim & 。 Park,线性化后缀树。如果您喜欢组合学,请查看:Schürmann、Klaus-Bernd、后缀数组的理论和实践。
另外,我建议使用 3 路基数快速排序,而不是专门的后缀排序算法。仅在语料库出现冗余的情况下才需要后缀排序算法。但这些冗余是不必要的,而且会搞乱你的统计数据。
如果你做了一些有趣的事情,我有兴趣见到

I think you should use a tokenizer and replace each string with an integer. Then for sentinels, there will be plenty of integers left over. Probably, it's more convenient to use the larger integers as sentinels rather than the small ones. For printout, you can use whatever Unicode character you want, and you may as well use the same character for all of them.
Are you implementing Yamamoto & Church? If so, have a look at some newer literature before you start. I recommend Abouelhoda et al Extended Suffix Array and Kim, Kim & Park, Linearized Suffix Trees. And if you like combinatorics, look at: Schürmann, Klaus-Bernd, Suffix arrays in theory and practice.
Also, I recommend 3-way radix quicksort, as opposed to a specialized suffix sorting algorithm. You only need the suffix sorting algorithm in case of redundancies in your corpus. But these redundancies are unnecessary, and will screw up your statistics.
And if you make something interesting, I would be interested to see
