Abstract: We present an efficient algorithm for calculating q-gram frequencies on strings represented in compressed form, namely, as a straight line program (SLP). Given an SLP mathcalT of size n that represents string T, the algorithm computes the occurrence frequencies of all q-grams in T, by reducing the problem to the weighted q-gram frequencies problem on a trie-like structure of size m=|T|mathitdup(q,mathcalT), where mathitdup(q,mathcalT) is a quantity that represents the amount of redundancy that the SLP captures with respect to q-grams. The reduced problem can be solved in linear time. Since m=O(qn), the running time of our algorithm is O(min|T|mathitdup(q,mathcalT),qn), improving our previous O(qn) algorithm when q=Omega(|T|/n).
