Logical characterization of weighted pebble walking automata
2014
Proceedings of the Joint Meeting of the Twenty-Third EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL) and the Twenty-Ninth Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS) - CSL-LICS '14
In this paper, we establish the expressive power of weighted pebble walking automata in terms of transitive closure logic, lifting a similar result by Engelfriet and Hoogeboom from the Boolean case to ...
To address this drawback, weighted automata have recently been generalized to weighted pebble walking automata, which proved useful as a tool for the specification and evaluation of quantitative properties ...
Conclusion We established expressive equivalence of weighted pebble walking automata and weighted first-order logic with transitive closure. ...

Pebble Weighted Automata and Weighted Logics
2014
ACM Transactions on Computational Logic
Our main result states that two-way pebble weighted automata, oneway pebble weighted automata, and our weighted logic are expressively equivalent. ...
Equipped with pebbles, they go beyond the class of recognizable formal power series: they capture weighted first-order logic enriched with a quantitative version of transitive closure. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors would like to thank the anonymous referees for their valuable comments that permitted to simplify some proofs, and globally improve the quality of this paper. ...

Weighted Specifications over Nested Words
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The specification formalisms are weighted regular expressions (with forward and backward moves following linear edges or call-return edges), weighted first-order logic, and weighted temporal logics. ...
We introduce weighted automata walking in nested words, possibly dropping/lifting (reusable) pebbles during the traversal. ...
This is due to the power of η steps, which gives to wTL a flavor of weighted transitive closure (see [5] ), and of regular LTL [14] . ...

Adding Pebbles to Weighted Automata
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We extend weighted automata and weighted rational expressions with 2-way moves and (reusable) pebbles. ...
We show with examples from natural language modeling and quantitative model-checking that weighted expressions and automata with pebbles are more expressive and allow much more natural and intuitive specifications ...

Quantitative Monadic Second-Order Logic
2013
2013 28th Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science
We further refine the analysis of this logic and obtain fragments that characterise exactly subclasses of weighted automata defined by the level of ambiguity allowed in the automata. ...
In this way we obtain a simple logic which is equally expressive to weighted automata. ...
Finitely ambiguous weighted automata form a sub-class of WA with very good closure properties. ...

A Probabilistic Kleene Theorem
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Our result actually extends to two-way probabilistic automata with pebbles and corresponding expressions. ...
We provide a Kleene Theorem for (Rabin) probabilistic automata over finite words. Probabilistic automata generalize deterministic finite automata and assign to a word an acceptance probability. ...
Just like classical finite automata, weighted automata over semirings enjoy characterizations in terms of monadic second-order logic [13, 6] . ...

Advanced Automata Minimization

pre-print
This can be used to scale up applications of automata in formal verification tools and decision procedures for logical theories. The algorithm is based on new transition pruning techniques. ...
We tested our algorithm on Buchi automata derived from LTL-formulae, many classes of random automata and automata derived from mutual exclusion protocols, and compared its performance to the well-known ...
Direct, delayed, fair and backward k-pebble simulations are not transitive in general, but their transitive closures are GFI preorders; the direct, delayed and backward variants are also GFQ. ...

Direct, delayed, fair and backward k-pebble simulations are not transitive in general, but their transitive closures are GFI preorders; the direct, delayed and backward variants are also GFQ. ...
Model checking algorithms and automata-based decision procedures for logical theories compute automata products, unions, complements, projections, etc., and thus the sizes of automata grow rapidly. ...

As a consequence, we obtain corresponding Büchi-type equivalence results known from the recent literature for weighted automata and weighted logics on words, trees, pictures, and nested words. ...
