In this paper, we study fuzzy top-down tree automata over lattices ( LTA s , for short). The purpose of this contribution is to investigate the minimization problem for LTA s . We first define the concept of statewise equivalence between two LTA s . Thereafter, we show the existence of the statewise minimal form for an LTA . To this end, we find a statewise irreducible LTA which is equivalent to a given LTA . Then, we provide an algorithm to find the statewise minimal LTA and by a theorem, we show that the output statewise minimal LTA is statewise equivalent to the given input. Moreover, we compute the time complexity of the given algorithm. The proposed algorithm can be applied to any given LTA and, unlike some minimization algorithms given in the literature, the input doesn’t need to be a complete, deterministic, or reduced lattice-valued tree automaton. Finally, we provide some examples to show the efficiency of the presented algorithm.

Hyper-minimization is a recent automaton compression technique that can reduce the size of an automaton beyond the limits imposed by classical minimization. The additional compression power is enabled by allowing a finite difference in the represented language. The necessary theory for hyper-minimization is developed for (bottom-up) deterministic tree automata. The hyper-minimization problem for deterministic tree automata is reduced to the hyper-minimization problem for deterministic finite-state string automata, for which fast algorithms exist. The fastest algorithm obtained in this way runs in time [Formula: see text], where m is the size of the transition table and n is the number of states of the input tree automaton.

We provide new insights on the determinization and minimization of tree automata using congruences on trees. From this perspective, we study a Brzozowski’s style minimization algorithm for tree automata. First, we prove correct this method relying on the following fact: when the automata-based and the language-based congruences coincide, determinizing the automaton yields the minimal one. Such automata-based congruences, in the case of word automata, are defined using pre and post operators. Now we extend these operators to tree automata, a task that is particularly challenging due to the reduced expressive power of deterministic top-down (or equivalently co-deterministic bottom-up) automata. We leverage further our framework to offer an extension of the original result by Brzozowski for word automata.

In this paper, an association is organized between the theory of tree automata on one hand and the hyperstructures on the other hand, over complete residuated lattices. To this end, the concept of order of the states of a complete residuated lattice-valued tree automaton (simply L-valued tree automaton) is introduced along with several equivalence relations in the set of the states of an L-valued tree automaton. We obtain two main results from this study: one of the relations can lead to the creation of Kleene’s theorem for L-valued tree automata, and the other one leads to the creation of a minimal v-valued tree automaton that accepts the same language as the given one.

AbstractWe show the decidability of the finite sequentiality problem for unambiguous max-plus tree automata. A max-plus tree automaton is called unambiguous if there is at most one accepting run on every tree. The finite sequentiality problem asks whether for a given max-plus tree automaton, there exist finitely many deterministic max-plus tree automata whose pointwise maximum is equivalent to the given automaton.

Compiler is used for the purpose of converting high level code to machine code. For doing this procedure we have six steps. On these steps the syntax analyses is the second step of compiler. The lexical analyzer produce token in the output. The tokens are used as input to syntax analyzer. Syntax analyzer performs parsing operation. The parsing can be used for deriving the string from the given grammar called as derivation. It depend upon how derivation will be performed either top down or bottom up. The bottom up parsers LR (Left-to-right), SLR (simple LR) has some conflicts. To remove these conflicts we use LALR (Look ahead LR parser). The conflicts are available if the state contains minimum two or more productions. If there is one shift operation in state and other one is reduce operation it means that shift-reduce operation at the same time. Then this state is called as inadequate state. This Inadequate state problem is solved in LALR parser. Other problem with other parsers is that they have more states as compared to LALR parser. So cost will be high. But in LALR parser minimum states used and cost will automatically be reduced. LALR is also called as Minimization algorithm of CLR (Canonical LR parser).

The conversion of a given regular tree expression into a tree automaton has been widely studied. However, classical interpretations are based upon a top-down interpretation of tree automata. In this paper, we propose new constructions based on Gluskov’s one and on the one by Ilie and Yu using a bottom-up interpretation. One of the main goals of this technique is to consider as a next step the links with deterministic recognizers, something which cannot be done with classical top-down approaches.

Abstract An algorithm is proposed for the computation of streamfunction and velocity potential from given horizontal velocity vectors based on solving a minimization problem. To guarantee the uniqueness of the solution and computational reliability of the algorithm, a Tikhonov regularization is applied. The solution implies that the obtained streamfunction and velocity potential have minimal magnitude, while the given velocity vectors can be accurately reconstructed from the computed streamfunction and velocity potential. Because the formulation of the minimization problem allows for circumventing the explicit specification of separate boundary conditions on the streamfunction and velocity potential, the algorithm is easily applicable to irregular domains. By using an advanced minimization algorithm with the use of adjoint techniques, the method is computationally efficient and suitable for problems with large dimensions. An example is presented for coastal oceans to illustrate the practical application of the algorithm.

AbstractWe show that the finite sequentiality problem is decidable for finitely ambiguous max-plus tree automata. A max-plus tree automaton is a weighted tree automaton over the max-plus semiring. A max-plus tree automaton is called finitely ambiguous if the number of accepting runs on every tree is bounded by a global constant. The finite sequentiality problem asks whether for a given max-plus tree automaton, there exist finitely many deterministic max-plus tree automata whose pointwise maximum is equivalent to the given automaton.

We investigate the decidability of the feasibility problem for imperative programs with bounded loops. A program is called feasible if all values it computes are polynomially bounded in terms of the input. The feasibility problem is representative of a group of related properties, like that of polynomial time complexity. It is well known that such properties are undecidable for a Turing-complete programming language. They may be decidable, however, for languages that are not Turing-complete. But if these languages are expressive enough, they do pose a challenge for analysis. We are interested in tracing the edge of decidability for the feasibility problem and similar problems. In previous work, we proved that such problems are decidable for a language where loops are bounded but indefinite (that is, the loops may exit before completing the given iteration count). In this paper, we consider definite loops. A second language feature that we vary, is the kind of assignment statements. With ordinary assignment, we prove undecidability of a very tiny language fragment. We also prove undecidability with lossy assignment (that is, assignments where the modified variable may receive any value bounded by the given expression, even zero). But we prove decidability with max assignments (that is, assignments where the modified variable never decreases its value).
