Linear-space computation of the editdistance between a string and a finite automaton
- In London Algorithmics 2008: Theory and Practice
, 2008
"... Abstract. The problem of computing the edit-distance between a string and a finite automaton arises in a variety of applications in computational biology, text processing, and speech recognition. This paper presents linear-space algorithms for computing the edit-distance between a string and an arbi ..."

and an arbitrary weighted automaton over the tropical semiring, or an unambiguous weighted automaton over an arbitrary semiring. It also gives an efficient linear-space algorithm for finding an optimal alignment of a string and such a weighted automaton. 1
The Weighted Finite Automaton Inference Problem
, 1995
"... Weighted finite automata (WFA) were introduced as a device for generating and transforming pixel images. The inference problem is the determination of a WFA that generates a given image. There are two basic results in this paper. First, a general solution to the inference problem is given which alwa ..."

Mean-Payoff Automaton Expressions
"... Quantitative languages are an extension of boolean languages that assign to each word a real number. Mean-payoff automata are finite automata with numerical weights on transitions that assign to each infinite path the long-run average of the transition weights. When the mode of branching of the aut ..."

Optimal Paths in Weighted Timed Automata
- HSCC
, 2001
"... We consider an optimal-reachability problem for a timed automaton with respect to a linear cost function which results in a weighted timed automaton. Our solution to this optimization problem consists of reducing it to a (parametric) shortest-path problem for a finite directed graph. The directed gr ..."

The induction of dynamical recognizers
- Machine Learning
, 1991
"... A higher order recurrent neural network architecture learns to recognize and generate languages after being "trained " on categorized exemplars. Studying these networks from the perspective of dynamical systems yields two interesting discoveries: First, a longitudinal examination of the le ..."

of the learning process illustrates a new form of mechanical inference: Induction by phase transition. A small weight adjustment causes a "bifurcation" in the limit behavior of the network. This phase transition corresponds to the onset of the network’s capacity for generalizing to arbitrary
Coinductive Counting With Weighted Automata
, 2002
"... A general methodology is developed to compute the solution of a wide variety of basic counting problems in a uniform way: (1) the objects to be counted are enumerated by means of an infinite weighted automaton; (2) the automaton is reduced by means of the quantitative notion of stream bisimulation; ..."

Generalised Stochastic Automaton Image Compression
, 1997
"... It is well known that digital images can be generated by generalised stochastic automata (GSA). This fact has been taken as the basis for image compression by storing a GSA rather than the image that it generates. This paper investigates fundamental relationships between the parameters of GSA and th ..."

and their generated images. In particular, we are interested in expressing the magnitude of GSA weights, and the precision to which they must be specified in image parameter terms. The significance of these relationships is connected to the compression ratio. An additional consequence of the use of GSA theory is a
Two Algorithms for Finding k Shortest Paths of a Weighted Pushdown Automaton
, 2014
"... Weighted pushdown automata (WPDAs) have recently been adopted in some applications such as machine translation [Iglesias et al., 2011] as a more compact alternative to weighted finite-state automata (WFSAs) for representing a weighted set of strings. Allauzen and Riley [2012] introduce a set of basi ..."

Path-Equivalent Removals of ε-transitions in a Genomic Weighted Finite Automaton

Hardwiring such automata raise surface area and clock frequency constraints, requiring efficient ε-transitions-removal techniques. In this paper, we present new bounds on the number of new trans ..."
