Survey of Spatial Approximate String Search

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER TRENDS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

Several applications require finding objects closest to a specified location that contains a set of keywords. In view of example, online yellow pages allow users to specify an address and a set of keywords. In response, the user obtains a list of businesses whose description contains these keywords and it ordered according to their distance from the specified address. The complexities of nearest neighbor search on spatial data and keyword search on text data have been extensively studied separately. Still, to the best of our knowledge there is no efficient method to answer spatial keyword queries,exclusively, queries that specify both a location and a set of keywords. We survey the current techniques to cope with the problem of string matching that allows errors. For many fast rising areas such as information retrieval and computational biology this is becoming a more and more relevant issue. We focus on spatial string searching and mostly on edit distance, its statistical behavior, its history and current developments, and the central ideas of the techniques and their difficulties. The aim of this survey is to present an overview of the state of the art in approximate string searching.
