java - Improving performance of fuzzy string matching against a dictionary -

-

so i'm working using secondstring fuzzy string matching, have large dictionary compare (with each entry in dictionary has associated non-unique identifier). using hashmap store dictionary.

when want fuzzy string matching, first check see if string in hashmap , iterate through of other potential keys, calculating string similarity , storing k,v pair/s highest similarity. depending on dictionary using can take long time ( 12330 - 1800035 entries ). there way speed or make faster? writing memoization function/table way of speeding up, can else think of better way improve speed of this? maybe different structure or else i'm missing.

many in advance,

nathan

what looking bktree (bk-tree) combined levenshtein distance algorithm. lookup performance in bktree depends on how "fuzzy" search is. fuzzy defined number of distance (edits) between search word , matches.

here blog on subject: http://blog.notdot.net/2007/4/damn-cool-algorithms-part-1-bk-trees

some notes on performance: http://www.kafsemo.org/2010/08/03_bk-tree-performance-notes.html

notes on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/levenshtein_distance algorithm.

also, here bk-tree written in java. should give idea of interface: http://code.google.com/p/java-bk-tree/

i want make logharitmic fit. keep getting runtime error: optimal parameters not found: number of calls function has reached maxfev = 1000 i use following script. can tell me go wrong? use spyder still beginner. import math import matplotlib mpl scipy.optimize import curve_fit import numpy np #data f1=[735.0,696.0,690.0,683.0,680.0,678.0,679.0,675.0,671.0,669.0,668.0,664.0,664.0] t1=[1,90000.0,178200.0,421200.0,505800.0,592200.0,768600.0,1036800.0,1371600.0,1630800.0,1715400.0,2345400.0,2409012.0] f1n=np.array(f1) t1n=np.array(t1) plt.plot(t1,f1,'ro',label="original data") # curvefit def func(t,a,b): return a+b*np.log(t) t=np.linspace(0,3600*24*28,13) popt, pcov = curve_fit(func, t, f1n, maxfev=1000) plt.plot(t, func(t, *popt), label="fitted curve") plt.legend(loc='upper left') plt.show() your original data t1 , f1 . therefore curve_fit should given t1 second argument, not t . popt, pcov = curve_fit(func,...

binding - How can you make the color of elements of a WPF DrawingImage dynamic? -

-
we have need make vector graphic images change color of elements within graphic @ runtime. seem setting colors based on either static or dynamic resource values wouldn't work. want have multiple versions of same graphic, each abilty set graphic elements (path, line, etc) different colors don't think dynamic resource approach work. leaves data binding seems right approach. update graphic use data binding expr instead of hard-coded brush color so: <drawingimage x:key="graphic1"> <drawingimage.drawing> <drawinggroup> <drawinggroup.children> <geometrydrawing geometry="f1 m 8.4073,23.9233l"> <geometrydrawing.pen> <pen linejoin="round" brush="{binding line1brush, mode=oneway}"/> </geometrydrawing.pen> </geometrydrawing> <geometrydrawing geometry="f1 m 3.6875,2.56251l"> <geometrydrawing....
