Tags, Category, Keywords and additional notes

Filter algorithms for approximate string matching typically consist of two distinct phases. In the first, the filtration phase, one applies a so-called filter criterion to detect

regions of a subject string that are potentially similar to
the query string. In the second phase, the verification phase, the potential matches are analyzed in order to find the actual matches between query and subject.

We introduce new fliter criteria based on a previously known
approach using exact matching substrings between query and
subject by allowing gaps in the substrings.
