Quantitative Automata under Probabilistic Semantics [PDF]
Automata with monitor counters, where the transitions do not depend on counter values, and nested weighted automata are two expressive automata-theoretic frameworks for quantitative properties. For a well-studied and wide class of quantitative functions,

Constructing Concise Characteristic Samples for Acceptors of Omega Regular Languages [PDF]
A characteristic sample for a language $L$ and a learning algorithm $\textbf{L}$ is a finite sample of words $T_L$ labeled by their membership in $L$ such that for any sample $T \supseteq T_L$ consistent with $L$, on input $T$ the learning algorithm ...

Unifying B\"uchi Complementation Constructions [PDF]
Complementation of B\"uchi automata, required for checking automata containment, is of major theoretical and practical interest in formal verification. We consider two recent approaches to complementation.

Graph Logics with Rational Relations [PDF]
We investigate some basic questions about the interaction of regular and rational relations on words. The primary motivation comes from the study of logics for querying graph topology, which have recently found numerous applications.

LTL and Beyond: Formal Languages for Reward Function Specification in Reinforcement Learning
In Reinforcement Learning (RL), an agent is guided by the rewards it receives from the reward function. Unfortunately, it may take many interactions with the environment to learn from sparse rewards, and it can be challenging to specify reward functions ...

Regular Cost Functions, Part I: Logic and Algebra over Words [PDF]
The theory of regular cost functions is a quantitative extension to the classical notion of regularity. A cost function associates to each input a non-negative integer value (or infinity), as opposed to languages which only associate to each input the ...

Reachability in Higher-Order-Counters
Higher-order counter automata (\HOCS) can be either seen as a restriction of higher-order pushdown automata (\HOPS) to a unary stack alphabet, or as an extension of counter automata to higher levels.

Towards a Uniform Theory of Effectful State Machines
Using recent developments in coalgebraic and monad-based semantics, we present a uniform study of various notions of machines, e.g. finite state machines, multi-stack machines, Turing machines, valence automata, and weighted automata.

Let's Learn Their Language? A Case for Planning with Automata-Network Languages from Model Checking
It is widely known that AI planning and model checking are closely related. Compilations have been devised between various pairs of language fragments. What has barely been voiced yet, though, is the idea to let go of one's own modeling language, and use

Automatic functions, linear time and learning [PDF]
The present work determines the exact nature of {\em linear time computable} notions which characterise automatic functions (those whose graphs are recognised by a finite automaton). The paper also determines which type of linear time notions permit full
