Hamming distance measures the number of dimensions where two vectors have different values. In applications such as pattern recognition, information retrieval, Chemoinformatics and databases, it is often needed to perform efficient Hamming distance query, which retrieves vectors in a database that have no more than k Hamming distance from a given query vector. Existing work on efficient Hamming distance query processing has some of the following limitations, such as unable to deal with k that is not tiny, unable to deal with vectors where the value domain is large, or unable to attain robust performance in the presence of data skew. To address these limitations, we propose HmSearch, an efficient query processing method for Hamming distance query. Our method is based on enumeration-based signatures and a novel partitioning scheme. We develop enhanced filtering as well as a filtering-and-verification procedure. To deal with data skew, we design an effective dimension rearrangement method. We also illustrate a hybrid technique for the LSH data. Extensive experimental evaluation demonstrates that our methods outperform state-of-the-art methods by up to two orders of magnitude. We also list out several existing problems and show a few possible directions for future work. i Publications Involved in the Thesis Published conference paper: • Xiaoyang Zhang, Jianbin Qin, Wei Wang, Yifang Sun, Jiaheng Lu, HmSearch: An Efficient Hamming Distance Query Processing Algorithm.

Hamming distance is a widely used distance function, which measures the number of dimensions where two vectors have different values. The Hamming distance query is to retrieve vectors in a database that have Hamming distance no more than k from a given query vector. A novel and practical approach to solve this problem will be proposed in Chapter 3. It will be demonstrated that the performance of our algorithm outperforms previous state-of-the-art algorithms substantially. With the advancement of the Information technology, the digital data has become an integral part of everyday life. As the growth of those digital data accelerates in both scale and variety, it is urgent to find a way to manipulate the data efficiently and effectively. A natural way to manipulate the data is to execute a search against the data. A simple example is to use Google to search for certain objects across the Internet. As searching is such a prominent data processing operation, researchers focused much on this searching problem, especially the 1 2 Chapter 1. Introduction exact match at the very beginning. The exact match searching is a well studied area. However, naturally, in plenty of situations, requirement of searching is not restricted in finding the identical ob- jects. For example, if a criminal's face is captured by a surveillance camera, the police probably wish to find all the similar faces to identify the suspect. Moreover, with the rapid development of the Information industry, the data are increasingly being generated and gathered in different areas. Hence current data usually emerge in huge size and a variety of categories, such as images, audios, videos, time series, fingerprints, documents, protein sequences and so on. Since these data collections are huge and complicated, the data objects might probably lack precision. There- fore, it is inevitable to use the similarity search to find the similar objects instead of only seeking the exact matching ones. Currently, the similarity search has been ap- plied in a variety of applications, including databases, data mining, machine learn- ing, bioinformatics and so on. Hence, the study of the similarity search has become a very fundamental problem in this area and attract more and more attentions. A primary task of doing similarity search to quantify the degree of similarity of a query object against the objects in a data collections. There are fundamentally two ways to capture the requirements of similarity quantitatively. One is to specify a distance constraint, and the other is to specify a similarity constraint. There are plenty of different distance constraint, such as Minkowski distances, Quadratic Form distance, Edit distance, Hamming distance and so on. There are also a few different similarity constraint, such as Jaccard similarity, Cosine similarity, Dice similarity and so on. Among these measures, Hamming distance is one of the highly popular and widely used methods [Liu et al., 2011]. Hamming distance measures the number of dimensions where two vectors have different values. It is used in many applications such as, multimedia databases, Chapter 1. Introduction 3 bioinformatics, pattern recognition, text mining, computer vision, Chemical Informatics and so on.

    THEORY OF COMPUTING, Volume 4 (2008), pp. 129–135 http://theoryofcomputing.org The One-Way Communication Complexity of Hamming Distance T. S. Jayram Ravi Kumar∗ D. Sivakumar∗ Received: January 23, 2008; revised: September 12, 2008; published: October 11, 2008. Abstract: Consider the following version of the Hamming distance problem for ±1 vec- n √ n √ tors of length n: the promise is that the distance is either at least 2 + n or at most 2 − n, and the goal is to find out which of these two cases occurs. Woodruff (Proc. ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms, 2004) gave a linear lower bound for the randomized one-way communication complexity of this problem. In this note we give a simple proof of this result. Our proof uses a simple reduction from the indexing problem and avoids the VC-dimension arguments used in the previous paper. As shown by Woodruff (loc. cit.), this implies an Ω(1/ε2)-space lower bound for approximating frequency moments within a factor 1 + ε in the data stream model.

  • Parity Check Code Repetition Code 10010011 11100001
    Lecture Notes Charles Cusack Communication Errors Introduction Implementations of memory, storage, and communication are not perfect. Therefore, it is possible that when I store a number on a hard drive or send it over a network, a slightly different number is actually stored/received. There are techniques to deal with this. Definition An error detection (correction) code is a method of encoding data in so that if a certain number of errors has occurred during transmission, it can be detected (corrected). Definition The hamming distance between two bit strings is the number of bits where they differ. Example The hamming distance between 10010011 and 11100001 is 4 since 1001 00 11 these bit patterns differ in bits 2, 3, 4, and 7. 1110 00 01 Parity Check Code The simplest method of detecting errors is by using a parity bit . To use a parity bit, one simply appends one additional bit (to the beginning or end—it doesn’t matter which as long as you are consistent) to a bit string so that the number of 1s in the string is odd (or even). To detect an error you add the number of ‘1’ bits. If it is not odd (even) you know an error has occurred. Example The bit string 10010011 is encoded as 100100111 using an odd parity check code, and the bit string 11110001 is encoded as 111100010 using an odd parity check code. Question • How many errors can this method detect? What happens if more errors occur? • How many errors can this method correct? Repetition Code A repetition code encodes a bit string by appending k copies of the bit string.

  • Bit-Parallel Approximate String Matching Under Hamming Distance
    Aalto University School of Science Degree Programme in Computer Science and Engineering Tommi Hirvola Bit-parallel approximate string matching under Hamming distance Master's Thesis Espoo, July 21, 2016 Supervisors: Professor Jorma Tarhio Advisor: Professor Jorma Tarhio Aalto University School of Science ABSTRACT OF Degree Programme in Computer Science and Engineering MASTER'S THESIS Author: Tommi Hirvola Title: Bit-parallel approximate string matching under Hamming distance Date: July 21, 2016 Pages: 87 Major: Software engineering Code: T-106 Supervisors: Professor Jorma Tarhio Advisor: Professor Jorma Tarhio In many situations, an exact search of a pattern in a text does not find all in- teresting parts of the text. For example, exact matching can be rendered useless by spelling mistakes or other errors in the text or pattern. Approximate string matching addresses the problem by allowing a certain amount of error in occur- rences of the pattern in the text. This thesis considers the approximate matching problem known as string matching with k mismatches, in which k characters are allowed to mismatch. The main contribution of the thesis consists of new algorithms for approximate string matching with k mismatches based on the bit-parallelism technique. Ex- periments show that the proposed algorithms are competitive with the state-of- the-art algorithms in practice. A significant advantage of the novel algorithms is algorithmic simplicity and flexibility, which is demonstrated by deriving efficient algorithms to several problems involving approximate string matching under the k-mismatches model. A bit-parallel algorithm is presented for online approximate matching of circular strings with k mismatches, which is the first average-optimal solution that is not based on filtering.

The algorithm calculates the Hamming weight of two binary strings in one query of an oracle. To calculate the hamming distance of these two strings we only have to calculate the Hamming weight of the xor operation of both strings. To test the algorithms the quantum computer prototype that IBM has given open access to on the cloud has been used to test the results.

  • Low Distortion Embedding from Edit to Hamming Distance Using Coupling
    Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity, Report No. 111 (2015) Low Distortion Embedding from Edit to Hamming Distance using Coupling Diptarka Chakraborty∗ Elazar Goldenbergy Michal Koucký z July 8, 2015 Abstract The Hamming and the edit metrics are two common notions of measuring distances between pairs of strings x; y lying in the Boolean hypercube. The edit distance between x and y is dened as the minimum number of character insertion, deletion, and bit ips needed for converting x into y. Whereas, the Hamming distance between x and y is the number of bit ips needed for converting x to y. In this paper we study a randomized injective embedding of the edit distance into the Ham- ming distance with a small distortion. This question was studied by Jowhari (ESA 2012) and is mainly motivated by two questions in communication complexity: the document exchange problem and deciding edit distance using a sketching protocol. We show a randomized embedding with quadratic distortion. Namely, for any x; y satisfying that their edit distance equals k, the Hamming distance between the embedding of x and y is O(k2) with high probability. This improves over the distortion ratio of O(log n log∗ n) obtained by Jowhari for small values of k. Moreover, the embedding output size is linear in the input size and the embedding can be computed using a single pass over the input. ∗Department of Computer Science & Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Kanpur, India, dip- [email protected].
