minimum edit distance
Last edited: August 8, 2025“minimum edit distance” is one approach to solving the problem of “how similar are these two strings”? minimum edit distance is defined by the smallest number of editing operations (insertion, deletion, substitution) needed to transform one string into another.
There are two technical definitions. Both definitions are grounded upon “minimum number of operations it takes to transform a string into another, where”
DP costs \(O(nm)\), backtrace costs \(O(n+m)\).
