title = "Codes in the damerau distance for DNA storage",
abstract = "We introduce the new problem of code design in the Damerau metric. The Damerau metric is a generalization of the Levenshtein distance which also allows for adjacent transposition edits. We first provide constructions for codes that may correct either a single deletion or a single adjacent transposition and then proceed to extend these results to codes that can simultaneously correct a single deletion and multiple adjacent transpositions. Bounds on the size of the codes and accompanying decoding algorithms are presented as well.",
