Abstract: Closest String is one of the core problems in the eld of consensus word analysis with particular importance for computational biology. Given k strings of same length and a positive integer d, nd a \closest string" s such that none of the given strings has Hamming distance greater than d from s. Closest String is NP-complete. We show how to solve Closest String in linear time for constant d (the exponential growth is O(d )). We extend this result to the closely related problems... (Update)
