This note provides just a brief introduction to Matlab to “get you going”. For further details see the User’s Guide [2] and the Student Edition of Matlab [1], in both of which Matlab is fully documented. Matlab has an excellent built-in help facility, as described below, so you might be able to get by without reference to the texts: just ask the system for help on any command you’re not sure ab...

Introduction Many DSP designs start out in MATLAB and are then translated into C. Unfortunately, MATLAB has a number of quirks that make this translation a headache. MATLAB extends arrays without programmer intervention. It organizes matrices in column major order, while C uses row major order. It uses vector math which must be translated into loops. It indexes the first element of an array wit...

Although MATLAB has become one of the mainstream languages for the machine learning community, there is still skepticism among the Grammatical Inference (GI) community regarding the suitability of MATLAB for implementing and running GI algorithms. In this paper we will present implementation results of several GI algorithms, e.g., RPNI (Regular Positive and Negative Inference), EDSM (Evidence D...
