A deterministic automaton accepting a regular language L is a state-partition automaton with respect to a projection P if the state set of the deterministic automaton accepting the projected language P (L), obtained by the standard subset construction, forms a partition of the state set of the automaton. In this paper, we study fundamental properties of state-partition automata. We provide a co...

We propose a novel algorithm for automata-based LTL model checking that interleaves the construction of the generalized Büchi automaton for the negation of the formula and the emptiness check. Our algorithm first converts the LTL formula into a linear weak alternating automaton; configurations of the alternating automaton correspond to the locations of a generalized Büchi automaton, and a varia...

In this paper, we extend the concept of factorization on finite words to ω-rational languages and show how to compute them. We define a normal form for Büchi automata and introduce a universal automaton for Büchi automata in normal form. 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 th...

The necessary and sucient conditions for an automaton to be locally threshold testable are found. We introduce the polynomial time algorithm to verify local threshold testability of the automaton of time complexity O(n 5) and an algorithm of order O(n 3) for the local threshold testability problem for syntactic semigroup of the automaton. We modify necessary and sucient conditions for piecewise...

We propose a practical technique to compile pattern-matching for prioritised overlapping patterns in equational languages into a minimal, deterministic, left-toright, matching automaton. First, we present a method for constructing a tree matching automaton for such patterns. This allows pattern-matching to be performed without any backtracking. Space requirements are reduced by using a directed...

The synthesis of reactive systems requires the solution of two-player games on graphs with ω-regular objectives. When the objective is specified by a linear temporal logic formula or nondeterministic Büchi automaton, then previous algorithms for solving the game require the construction of an equivalent deterministic automaton. However, determinization for automata on infinite words is extremel...

We consider the problem of periodic graph exploration by a finite automaton in which an automaton with a constant number of states has to explore all unknown anonymous graphs of arbitrary size and arbitrary maximum degree. In anonymous graphs, nodes are not labeled but edges are labeled in a local manner (called local orientation) so that the automaton is able to distinguish them. Precisely, th...

Austinat, Diekert, Hertrampf, and Petersen [2] proved that every language L that is (m, n)-recognizable by a deterministic frequency automaton such that m > n/2 can be recognized by a deterministic finite automaton as well. First, the size of deterministic frequency automata and of deterministic finite automata recognizing the same language is compared. Then approximations of a language are con...

In this paper, we introduce a novel framework of cellular automata based computing that is capable of long short-term memory. Cellular automaton is used as the reservoir of dynamical systems. Input is randomly projected onto the initial conditions of automaton cells and nonlinear computation is performed on the input via application of a rule in the automaton for a period of time. The evolution...
