Title Improving Text Indexes Using Compressed Permutations
Authors Jérémy Barbay, Carlos Bedregal, Gonzalo Navarro
Publication date 2010
Abstract Any sorting algorithm in the comparison model
defines an encoding scheme for permutations. As adaptive
sorting algorithms perform o(n lg n) comparisons on restricted
classes of permutations, each defines one or more compression
schemes for permutations. In the case of the compression
schemes inspired by Adaptive Merge Sort, a small amount
of additional data allows to support in good time the access
and reversed access to the compressed permutation, without
decompressing it. In this paper we explore the application
of two of these compressed succinct data-structures to the
encoding of inverted lists and of suffix arrays, and show
experimentally that they yield a practical self-index on practical
data-sets, from natural language to biological data.
