Abstract
Given a context-free grammar (CFG) and a finite-state automaton (FA), we tackle the problem of computing the most similar pair of strings from two languages. We in particular consider three different gap cost models, linear, affine and concave models, that are crucial for finding a proper alignment between two bio sequences. We design efficient algorithms for computing the edit-distance between a CFG and an FA under these gap cost models. The time complexity of our algorithm for computing the linear or affine gap distance is polynomial and the time complexity for the concave gap distance is exponential.
