Abstract
Substring matching is fundamental to data mining methods for sequential data. It involves checking the existence of a short subsequence within a longer sequence, ensuring no gaps within a match. Whilst a large amount of existing work has focused on substring matching and mining techniques for certain sequences, there are only a few results for uncertain sequences. Uncertain sequences provide powerful representations for modelling sequence behavioural characteristics in emerging domains, such as bioinformatics, sensor streams and trajectory analysis. In this paper, we focus on the core problem of computing substring matching probability in uncertain sequences and propose an efficient dynamic programming algorithm for this task. We demonstrate our approach is both competitive theoretically, as well as effective and scalable experimentally. Our results contribute towards a foundation for adapting classic sequence mining methods to deal with uncertain data.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
