The Language, the Expression, and the (Small) Automaton
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This survey paper reviews the means that allow to go from one representation of the languages to the other and how, and to what extend, one can keep them small. ...
Some emphasis is put on the comparison between the expressions that can be computed from a given automaton and on the construction of the derived term automaton of an expression. ...
In this talk, mostly a survey, I review the means that allow to go from one representation of the languages to the other and how, and to what extend, one can keep them small. ...

A small 1-way quantum finite automaton
[article]
1998
arXiv
pre-print
We construct a 1-way QFAs that are quadratically smaller than any equivalent deterministic finite automata and give the correct answer with a large probability by recognizing the languages in a two letter ...

Ambainis and Freivalds [1] consider the language L p = {a i |i is divisible by p}. Any 1-way finite automaton recognizing L p has at least p states. ...

Monadic datalog and the expressive power of languages for web information extraction
2002
Proceedings of the twenty-first ACM SIGMOD-SIGACT-SIGART symposium on Principles of database systems - PODS '02
We believe that MSO has the right expressiveness required for Web information extraction and propose MSO as a yardstick for evaluating and comparing wrappers. ...
Along the way, several other results on the complexity of query evaluation and query containment for monadic datalog over trees are established, and a simple normal form for this language is presented. ...
The results first announced in [Gottlob and Koch 2002a ] include a formal comparison of monadic datalog and Elog with other visual wrapping languages that have been proposed in the literature. ...

Mean-Payoff Automaton Expressions
[chapter]
2010
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We also present for the first time an algorithm to compute distance between two quantitative languages, and in our case the quantitative languages are given as mean-payoff automaton expressions. ...
We introduce a new class of quantitative languages, defined by mean-payoff automaton expressions, which is robust and decidable: it is closed under the four pointwise operations, and we show that all decision ...
Conclusion and Future Works We have presented a new class of quantitative languages, the mean-payoff automaton expressions which are both robust and decidable (see Table 1 ), and for which the distance ...

Automaton segmentation
2007
Proceedings of the 14th ACM conference on Computer and communications security - CCS '07
We present the automaton segmentation approach, analyze privacy preservation in details, and finally examine the end-to-end performance and scalability through experiments and analysis. ...
Through an innovative automaton segmentation scheme, distributed access control enforcement, and query segment encryption, our system integrates security enforcement and query forwarding while preserving ...

Automaton semigroups

Theoretical Computer Science
The concept of an automaton group generalizes easily to semigroups, and the systematic study of this area is beginning. This paper aims to contribute to that study. ...
The basic theory of automaton semigroups is briefly reviewed. Various natural semigroups are shown to arise as automaton semigroups. ...
The author also thanks the two anonymous referees, whose comments greatly improved the paper. ...

XML-document-filtering automaton
2008
Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment
In a publish-subscribe system based on filtering of XML documents subscribers specify their interests with profiles expressed in the XPath language. ...
We assume that the XML documents all conform to a given DTD; our algorithm utilizes the DTD in the preprocessing phase of the automaton to prune out descendant axes (//) and wildcards ( * ) from the XPath ...
When the SAX parser encounters a start element tag, the current state of the automaton is pushed onto a stack, and the symbol corresponding to the element name is consumed by the automaton. ...

Parikh's theorem: A simple and direct automaton construction
2011
Information Processing Letters
Parikh's theorem states that the Parikh image of a context-free language is semilinear or, equivalently, that every context-free language has the same Parikh image as some regular language. ...
We present a very simple construction that, given a context-free grammar, produces a finite automaton recognizing such a regular language. ...
Acknowledgements We thank two anonymous referees and Anca Muscholl for very useful suggestions. ...

Allauzen and Mohri have presented a unified construction of small automata and gave a construction of the equation automaton with time and space complexity in O(mlogm+m2), where m denotes the number of ...
This paper describes a fast algorithm for constructing directly the equation automaton from the well-known Thompson automaton associated with a regular expression. ...
Their comments were invaluable in depth and detail, and the current version owes much to their efforts.

FACTORIZATIONS AND UNIVERSAL AUTOMATON OF OMEGA LANGUAGES
2014
International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science
We prove that, for every ω-rational language, this Büchi automaton, based on factorization, is canonical and that it is the smallest automaton that contains the morphic image of every equivalent Büchi ...
In this paper, we extend the concept of factorization on finite words to ω-rational languages and show how to compute them. ...
Moreover, since every automaton has a morphic image in the universal automaton, it can be a tool for the construction of automata with a small number of states. ...
