چکیده

Tree automata have been defined to accept trees. Different types of acceptance like bottom-up, top-down, tree walking have been considered in the literature. In this paper, we consider bottom-up tree automata and discuss the sequential distributed version of this model. Generally, this type of distribution is called cooperative distributed automata or the blackboard model. We define the traditional five modes of cooperation, viz. ∗-mode, t-mode, = k, ≥ k, ≤ k (k ≥ 1) modes on bottom-up tree automata. We discuss the accepting power of cooperative distributed tree automata under these modes of cooperation. We find that the ∗mode does not increase the power, whereas the other modes increase the power. We discuss a few results comparing the acceptance power under different modes of cooperation.

Automata on Infinite Objects and Their Applications to Logic and Programming

We introduce various types of w-automata, top-down automata and bottom-up automata on infinite trees. We study the power of deterministic and nondeter-ministic tree automata and prove that deterministic and non-deterministic bottom-up tree automata accept the same intinite tree sets. We establish a relationship between tree automata, Logic programs, recursive program schemes, and the monadic se...

Bottom-up automata on data trees and vertical XPath

A data tree is a tree whose every node carries a label from a finite alphabet and a datum from some infinite domain. We introduce a new model of automata over unranked data trees with a decidable emptiness problem. It is essentially a bottom-up alternating automaton with one register, enriched with epsilon-transitions that perform tests on the data values of the subtree. We show that it capture...

Multidimensional fuzzy finite tree automata

This paper introduces the notion of multidimensional fuzzy finite tree automata (MFFTA) and investigates its closure properties from the area of automata and language theory. MFFTA are a superclass of fuzzy tree automata whose behavior is generalized to adapt to multidimensional fuzzy sets. An MFFTA recognizes a multidimensional fuzzy tree language which is a regular tree language so that for e...

TREE AUTOMATA BASED ON COMPLETE RESIDUATED LATTICE-VALUED LOGIC: REDUCTION ALGORITHM AND DECISION PROBLEMS

In this paper, at first we define the concepts of response function and accessible states of a complete residuated lattice-valued (for simplicity we write $mathcal{L}$-valued) tree automaton with a threshold $c.$ Then, related to these concepts, we prove some lemmas and theorems that are applied in considering some decision problems such as finiteness-value and emptiness-value of recognizable t...

Residual Finite Tree Automata

Tree automata based algorithms are essential in many fields in computer science such as verification, specification, program analysis. They become also essential for databases with the development of standards such as XML. In this paper, we define new classes of non deterministic tree automata, namely residual finite tree automata (RFTA). In the bottom-up case, we obtain a new characterization ...
