Abstract

We introduce a definition for a largest common d-dimensional subsequence of two d-dimensional strings for d ≥ 1. Our purpose is to generalize the well-known definition of a longest common subsequence of linear strings for dimensions higher than one. We prove that computing a largest common two-dimensional subsequence of two given twodimensional strings is NP-complete. We present an algorithm for the case of the problem when the definition is weakened.
