Pattern matching
(gcide) | Pattern matching \Pat"tern match"ing\, n. [See pattern.]
(Computers)
A technique in automated data analysis, usually performed on
a computer, by which a group of characteristic properties of
an unknown object is compared with the comparable groups of
characteristics of a set of known objects, to discover the
idenity or proper classification of the unknown object.
Note: There are two major types of pattern matching,
statistical pattern matching and {syntactic pattern
matching}. In statistical pattern matching, the
criteria used to recognize identity or class membership
vary, but in general some combination of the
differences in the groups of characteristics of known
and unknown objects are considered to be a measure of
the difference ("distance") between them, and the
closest known object or objects are viewed as
presenting the most likely identity or class for the
unknown object. In syntactic pattern matching, a set of
known patterns, e.g. as in the possible order of parts
of speech in a language, is defined, and the unknown
pattern is compared to find that known pattern or
patterns which matches the unknown exactly. In general,
statistical pattern matching is used where properties
of objects with continuous values are being compared,
and syntactic pattern matching where a complex
arrangement of at least two different objects may be
built by application of a set of rules (a "grammar")
for combining the objects in a specified order.
Examples of the latter are natural and formal
languages.

A sequence of bits, in a memory, a communications

design pattern
(foldoc) | design pattern
A description of an object-oriented design
technique which names, abstracts and identifies aspects of a
design structure that are useful for creating an
object-oriented design. The design pattern identifies
classes and instances, their roles, collaborations and
responsibilities. Each design pattern focuses on a particular
object-oriented design problem or issue. It describes when it
applies, whether it can be applied in the presence of other
design constraints, and the consequences and trade-offs of its
use.

pattern matching
(foldoc) | pattern matching
1. A function is defined to take arguments of a particular
type, form or value. When applying the function to its actual
arguments it is necessary to match the type, form or value of
the actual arguments against the formal arguments in some
definition. For example, the function
length [] = 0
length (x:xs) = 1 + length xs
uses pattern matching in its argument to distinguish a null
list from a non-null one.
There are well known algorithm for translating pattern
matching into conditional expressions such as "if" or "case".
E.g. the above function could be transformed to
length l = case l of
[] -> 0
x:xs -> 1 : length xs
Pattern matching is usually performed in textual order though
there are languages which match more specific patterns before
less specific ones.
2. Descriptive of a type of language or utility such as awk
or Perl which is suited to searching for strings or patterns
in input data, usually using some kind of {regular
expression}.

pattern recognition
(foldoc) | pattern recognition
A branch of
artificial intelligence concerned with the classification or
description of observations.
Pattern recognition aims to classify data (patterns) based
on either a priori knowledge or on statistical information
extracted from the patterns. The patterns to be classified
are usually groups of measurements or observations, defining
points in an appropriate multidimensional space.
A complete pattern recognition system consists of a sensor
that gathers the observations to be classified or described; a
feature extraction mechanism that computes numeric or
symbolic information from the observations; and a
classification or description scheme that does the actual job
of classifying or describing observations, relying on the
extracted features.
The classification or description scheme is usually based on
the availability of a set of patterns that have already been
classified or described. This set of patterns is termed the
training set and the resulting learning strategy is
characterised as supervised. Learning can also be
unsupervised, in the sense that the system is not given an a
priori labelling of patterns, instead it establishes the
classes itself based on the statistical regularities of the
patterns.
The classification or description scheme usually uses one of
the following approaches: statistical (or {decision
theoretic}), syntactic (or structural), or neural.
Statistical pattern recognition is based on statistical
characterisations of patterns, assuming that the patterns are
generated by a probabilistic system. Structural pattern
recognition is based on the structural interrelationships of
features. Neural pattern recognition employs the neural
computing paradigm that has emerged with neural networks.
