摘要: Abstract Given a large set of words W , we want to be able determine quickly whether query word q is close any in the set. A new data structure presented that allows such queries answered very even for huge sets if are not too long and quite close. The major application limiting password guessing by verifying, before approved, dictionary word. Other applications include spelling correction bibliographic files approximate matching.
