Abstract

We give an algorithm for parsing pattern languages. We show that a string of length n can be parsed with respect to a k-variable pattern in O(nk) time using O(n) space. Moreover, the time bound can be reduced by accounting for the number of occurrences of variables in the pattern. We also present evidence that employing some results of elementary number theory and integer linear programming leads to a faster algorithm.
