Kumboji Pattern Matching Alg

The document describes the Kumboji Pattern Matching algorithm, which is an improvement on the Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) algorithm. It operates in linear time by checking characters from left to right and using success function values to avoid backtracking the pattern. Unlike KMP, Kumboji Pattern Matching does not backtrack at all and uses the success function to iteratively move the text forward. It has applications in areas where string matching is important, such as artificial intelligence and intrusion detection.

Abstract: Pattern Matching is the process of finding a sequence of characters often known as
patterns in the text provided. Pattern matching plays an important role in various fields like
intrusion detection, text processing, information retrieval, artificial intelligence, etc. In the wide
spectrum of pattern matching concept, various algorithms were already proposed. Kumboji Pattern
algorithm is the one among them and it is an improvement of the Knuth Morris Pratt algorithm.

Index terms: Pattern, text, pattern matching algorithm, KMP algorithm and KPM algorithm.
