Novel algorithm to generate shortest edit script using Levenshtein distance algorithm

Github 2022  ·  P. Prakash Maria Liju ·

String similarity, longest common subsequence and shortest edit scripts are the triplets of problem that related to each other. There are different algorithms exist to generate edit script by solving longest common subsequence problem. This paper proposes an algorithm that uses string similarity problem to generate shortest edit script. For this we use the famous Levenshtein distance algorithm, which computes a numerical value that represents similarity between the strings from 0 to n, where n is the length of longest input string, and produce the shortest edit script which contains instructions of Insert, Delete and Substitute.
