‘Tuning’ an ASM Metric: Study in Metric ASM Optimization

Wc present an approximate string matching case study. An optimized version of the edit distance algorithm is described which has proven more accurate for a particular commercial application than the existing (benchmark) algorithm. The cvoluhon and nature of the optimization are detailed and test results are presented.
