Abstract
We present a new algorithm deciding for strings t and w whether w is an approximate generator of t with Levenshtein distance at most k. The algorithm is based on finite state transducers.
This research has been partially supported by the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sport of the Czech Republic under research program MSM6840770014 and by the Czech Science Foundation as project No. 201/06/1039.
