#!/bin/bash # Implementation of longest common subsequence (LCS) algorithm, with # memoization and scoring. The algorithm is a base of utilities like # diff - it finds the common items in two sequences. # # The memoization part is about remembering the results of LCS # computation for shorter sequences, so they can be reused when doing # computation for longer sequences. # # The scoring part is about generalization of the comparison function, # which normally would return a boolean value describing whether two # items are equal or not. With scoring, two things change. First is # that the returned value from the comparison/scoring function is not # a boolean, but rather an integer describing the degree of equality # of the items. And second is that with booleans, the winning # subsequence was the longest one, but with scores is not necessarily # the longest one, but with the highest total score. This changes the # algorithm a bit. While the typical LCS algorithm goes like as # follows (s1 and s2 are sequences, i1 and i2 are indices in their # respective sequences): # # # # LCS(s1, s2, i1, i2) -> sequence: # if (i1 >= len(s1) || i2 >= len(s2)): return () # if (s1[i1] == s2[i2]): # l = LCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2 + 1) # return (s1[i1], l...) # else: # l1 = LCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2) # l2 = LCS(s1, s2, i1, i2 + 1) # if (len(l1) > len(l2)): return l1 # return l2 # # # # The score LCS goes more or less like this: # # # # SLCS(s1, s2, i1, i2) -> tuple(score, sequence): # if (i1 >= len(s1) || i2 >= len(21)): return (score: 0, sequence: ()) # score = score_func(s1[i1], s2[i2]) # if (score == max_score): # # matches the "equal" case in LCS above # l = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2 + 1) # return (score: score + l.score, sequence: (s1[i1], l.sequence...) # else if (score == 0): # # matches the "not equal" case in LCS above # l1 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2) # l2 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1, i2 + 1) # if (l1.score > l2.score): return l1 # return l2 # else: # # new "equal, but not quite" case # l = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2 + 1) # l.score = score + l.score # l.sequence = (s1[i1], l.sequence...) # l1 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1 + 1, i2) # l2 = SLCS(s1, s2, i1, i2 + 1) # return tuple_with_max_score(l, l1, l2) # # # # The difference in the implementation below is that instead of # starting at index 0 and go up for each sequence, we start at max # index and go down. if [[ -z ${__LCS_SH_INCLUDED__:-} ]]; then __LCS_SH_INCLUDED__=x source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/util.sh" # Constants to use for accessing fields in common items. declare -gri LCS_X1_IDX=0 LCS_X2_IDX=1 LCS_IDX1_IDX=2 LCS_IDX2_IDX=3 # Computes the longest common subsequence of two sequences and stores # it in the passed array.
