Abstract

The paper derives the joint generating function of a collection of pattern statistics associated with binary sequences. The models discussed cover independent and some dependent Bernoulli trials, including Markov dependent ones. The results cover, in particular, the moment generating function of the random search time for certain general binary patterns in the popular Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm and hence shed more light into its performance.
