Bisimulation Minimisation for Weighted Tree Automata
نویسندگان
چکیده
We generalise existing forward and backward bisimulation minimisation algorithms for tree automata to weighted tree automata. The obtained algorithms work for all semirings and retain the time complexity of their unweighted variants for all additively cancellative semirings. On all other semirings the time complexity is slightly higher (linear instead of logarithmic in the number of states). We discuss implementations of these algorithms on a typical task in natural language processing.

Bisimulation Minimisation of Weighted Automata on Unranked Trees
Two examples of automata-theoretic models for the validation of xml documents against user-de ned schema are the stepwise unranked tree automaton (suta) and the parallel unranked tree automaton (puta). By adding a weight, taken from some semiring, to every transition we generalise these two qualitative automata models to quantitative models, thereby obtaining weighted stepwise unranked tree aut...
متن کاملBackward and Forward Bisimulation Minimisation of Tree Automata
We improve an existing bisimulation minimisation algorithm for tree automata by introducing backward and forward bisimulations and developing minimisation algorithms for them. Minimisation via forward bisimulation is also effective for deterministic automata and faster than the previous algorithm. Minimisation via backward bisimulation generalises the previous algorithm and is thus more effecti...
متن کاملBisimulation for BL-general fuzzy automata
In this note, we define bisimulation for BL-general fuzzy automata and show that if there is a bisimulation between two BL-general fuzzy automata, then they have the same behavior.For a given BL-general fuzzy automata, we obtain the greatest bisimulation for the BL-general fuzzy automata. Thereafter, if we use the greatest bisimulation, then we obtain a quotient BL-general fuzzy automata and th...
متن کاملI-homomorphism for BL-I-General L-fuzzy Automata
Taking into account the notion of BL-general fuzzy automaton, in the present study we define the notation of BL-intuitionistic general L-fuzzy automaton and I-bisimulation for BL-intuitionistic general L-fuzzy automaton.Then for a given BL-intuitionistic general L-fuzzy automaton, we obtain the greatest I-bisimulation. According to this notion, we give the structure of quotient BL-intuiti...
متن کاملOn the Efficiency of Deciding Probabilistic Automata Weak Bisimulation
Weak probabilistic bisimulation on probabilistic automata can be decided by an algorithm that needs to check a polynomial number of linear programming problems encoding weak transitions. It is hence polynomial, but not guaranteed to be strongly polynomial. In this paper we show that for polynomial rational probabilistic automata strong polynomial complexity can be ensured. We further discuss co...
