Abstract

As web documents proliferate fast, the need fo real-time computation of change (edit script) between web documents increases. Though fast heuristic algorithms have been proposed recently, the qualities of edit scripts produced by them are not satisfactory. In this paper, we propose X-tree Diff+ which produces better quality of edit scripts by introducing a tuning step based on the notion of consistency of matching. We also add copy operation to provide users more convenience. Tuning and copy operation increase matching ratio drastically. X-tree Diff+ produces better quality of edit scripts and runs fast equivalent to the time complexity of fastest heuristic algorithms
