Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for extracting relevant data. A first and a second set of data are accessed. The first set includes selected data. An edit sequence is determined between the first and the second sets, including considering at least repetitions for inclusion in the edit sequence. Corresponding data of the second set have a correspondence to the selected data are found at least partly by determining the edit sequence. A first and a second tree of data are accessed. The first tree includes selected data. An edit sequence is determined between the first and the second trees, including considering at least repetitions for inclusion in the edit sequence. Corresponding data of the second tree have a correspondence to the selected data are found at least partly by determining the edit sequence.
