چکیده

Tree-walking automata are a natural sequential model for recognizing languages of finite trees. Such automata walk around the tree and may decide in the end to accept it. It is shown that deterministic tree-walking automata are weaker than nondeterministic tree-walking automata.

A generalized disambiguation algorithm for weighted finite automata and its application to NLP tasks

We present a disambiguation algorithm for weighted finite tree automata (FTA). This algorithm converts ambiguous FTA into equivalent non-ambiguous one where no two accepting paths labeled with the same tree exists. The notion of non-ambiguity is similar to that of determinism in the automata theory, but we show that disambiguation is applicable to the wider class of weighted automata than deter...

Hubert Comon - Lundh Florent Jacquemard Nicolas Perrin Tree Automata with Memory , Visibility

Tree automata with one memory have been introduced in 2001. They generalize both pushdown (word) automata and the tree automata with constraints of equality between brothers of Bogaert and Tison. Though it has a decidable emptiness problem, the main weakness of this model is its lack of good closure properties. We propose a generalization of the visibly pushdown automata of Alur and Madhusudan ...

Approximate Determinization of Quantitative Automata

Quantitative automata are nondeterministic finite automata with edge weights. They value a run by some function from the sequence of visited weights to the reals, and value a word by its minimal/maximal run. They generalize boolean automata, and have gained much attention in recent years. Unfortunately, important automaton classes, such as sum, discounted-sum, and limit-average automata, cannot...

Robust Timed Automata

We de ne robust timed automata, which are timed automata that accept all trajectories \robustly": if a robust timed automaton accepts a trajectory, then it must accept neighboring trajectories also; and if a robust timed automaton rejects a trajectory, then it must reject neighboring trajectories also. We show that the emptiness problem for robust timed automata is still decidable, by modifying...
