Abstract

An incoming string is received and an initial segmentation is generated based upon separators in the incoming string. The segment values in the initial segmentation are validated by determining whether they are found in a data store. Where a segment in the initial segmentation is not found, subsequent segments, and corresponding separators, are iteratively concatenated to find segment values. Where a segment is still not found, after iterative concatenation, the initial segment in the concatenation is output as an unfound segment and the subsequent segments are processed further.
