Trie-Join: Efficient Trie-based String Similarity Joins with Edit-Distance Constraints

Summary: Trie-Join uses a trie to index strings and prune subtries for edit-distance constrained similarity joins. Small indexes, efficient dynamic updates, and order-of-magnitude speedups on short strings across real data sets. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
