Abstract: Seed is a type of a regularity of strings. A restricted approximate seed w of string T is a factor of T such that w covers a superstring of T under some distance rule. In this paper, the problem of all restricted seeds with the smallest Hamming distance is studied and a polynomial time and space algorithm for solving the problem is presented. It searches for all restricted approximate seeds of a string with given limited approximation using Hamming distance and it computes the smallest distance for each found seed. The solution is based on a finite (suffix) automata approach that provides a straightforward way to design algorithms to many problems in stringology. Therefore, it is shown that the set of problems solvable using finite automata includes the one studied in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
