A string
S
∈ Σ
m
can be viewed as a set of pairs
$\{ (s_i , i) \mid s_i\in S,\ i\in \{ 0,\ldots, m-1\} \}$
. We follow the recent work on
pattern matching with address errors
and consider approximate pattern matching problems arising from the setting where errors are introduced to the location component (
i
), rather than the more traditional setting, where errors are introduced to the content itself (
s
i
). Specifically, we continue the work on string matching in the presence of address bit errors. In this paper, we consider the case where bits of
i
may be stuck, either in a consistent or transient manner. We formally define the corresponding approximate pattern matching problems, and provide efficient algorithms for their resolution.
