We consider the problem of finding a minimum common string partition (MCSP) of two strings, which is an NP-hard problem. The MCSP problem is closely related to genome comparison and rearrangement, an important field in Computational Biology. In this paper, we map the MCSP problem into a graph applying a prior technique and using this graph, we develop an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation for the problem. We implement the ILP formulation and compare the results with the state-of-the-art algorithms from the literature. The experimental results are found to be promising.
我们考虑寻找两个字符串的最小公共字符串划分(MCSP)的问题,这是一个NP难问题。MCSP问题与基因组比较和重排密切相关,而基因组比较和重排是计算生物学中的一个重要领域。在本文中,我们运用一种先前的技术将MCSP问题映射到一个图上,并利用这个图为该问题开发了一个整数线性规划(ILP)公式。我们实现了ILP公式,并将结果与文献中最先进的算法进行了比较。实验结果很有前景。
