I've Cc-ed Assem Chelli, one of the authors of the algorithm and the
one who contributed it who hopefully can answer your question.

It seems we're currently completely lacking a page about this algorithm
on the website, which would be good to address.  I see Assem already
has an open issue about this:

Assem: If it helps, I'm happy to create a stub page for you to expand
upon.

Cheers,
