The problem takes as input a timed word/signal and a timed pattern (specified either by a timed regular expression or by a timed automaton); and it returns the set of those intervals for which the given timed word, when restricted to the interval, matches the given pattern. We contribute a Boyer-Moore type optimization in timed pattern matching, relying on the classic Boyer-Moore string matching algorithm and its extension to (untimed) pattern matching by Watson and Watson. We assess its effect through experiments; for some problem instances our Boyer-Moore type optimization achieves speed-up by two times, indicating its potential in real-world monitoring tasks where data sets tend to be massive.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.07207v3","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.07207v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a-boyer-moore-type-algorithm-for-timed","repo_url":"https://github.com/MasWag/timed-pattern-matching","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
