چکیده

Indexed languages are languages recognized by pushdown automata of level 2 and by indexed grammars. We propose here some new characterizations linking indexed languages to context-free languages: the class of indexed languages is the image of the Dyck language by a nice class of context-free transducers, it is also the class of images, by a projection defined by an FO-formula of nested words labelled by a Dyck word. This last result generalize the logical characterization of context-free languages.

Representations and Characterizations of Languages in Chomsky Hierarchy by Means of Insertion-Deletion Systems

Insertion-deletion operations are much investigated in linguistics and in DNA computing and several characterizations of Turing computability were obtained in this framework. In this note we contribute to this research direction with a new characterization of this type, as well as with representations of regular and context-free languages, mainly starting from context-free insertion systems of ...

Some Enumerations on Non-Decreasing Dyck Paths

We construct a formal power series on several variables that encodes many statistics on non-decreasing Dyck paths. In particular, we use this formal power series to count peaks, pyramid weights, and indexed sums of pyramid weights for all nondecreasing Dyck paths of length 2n. We also show that an indexed sum on pyramid weights depends only on the size and maximum element of the indexing set.

The Synthesis of Language Learners

An index for an r.e. class of languages (by definition) is a procedure which generates a sequence of grammars defining the class. An index for an indexed family of languages (by definition) is a procedure which generates a sequence of decision procedures defining the family. Studied is the metaproblem of synthesizing from indices for r.e. classes and for indexed families of languages various ki...

Chomsky-Schützenberger-Type Characterization of Multiple Context-Free Languages

It is a well-known theorem by Chomsky and Schützenberger (1963) that every context-free language can be represented as a homomorphic image of the intersection of a Dyck language and a regular language. This paper gives a Chomsky-Schützenberger-type characterization for multiple context-free languages, which are a natural extension of context-free languages, with introducing the notion of multip...

Synthesizing Noise-Tolerant Language Learners

An index for an r.e. class of languages (by definition) generates a sequence of grammars defining the class. An index for an indexed family of languages (by definition) generates a sequence of decision procedures defining the family. F. Stephan’s model of noisy data is employed, in which, roughly, correct data crops up infinitely often, and incorrect data only finitely often. Studied, then, is ...
