Regular Cost Functions, Part I: Logic and Algebra over Words [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2013
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 ...

Towards a Uniform Theory of Effectful State Machines

open access: yes, 2020
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.

Automatic functions, linear time and learning [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2013
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

Formal Grammars in Linguistics and Psycholinguistics: Volume 1: An Introduction to the Theory of Formal Languages and Automata, Volume 2: Applications in Linguistic Theory, Volume 3: Psycholinguistic Applications

open access: yes, 2008
Almost four decades have passed since Formal Grammars first appeared in 1974. At that time it was still possible to rather comprehensively review for (psycho)linguists the relevant literature on the theory of formal languages and automata, on their ...

Reachability in Higher-Order-Counters

open access: yes, 2013
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.

Highly Undecidable Problems For Infinite Computations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We show that many classical decision problems about 1-counter omega-languages, context free omega-languages, or infinitary rational relations, are $\Pi_2^1$-complete, hence located at the second level of the analytical hierarchy, and "highly undecidable".

On Varieties of Automata Enriched with an Algebraic Structure (Extended Abstract)

open access: yes, 2014
Eilenberg correspondence, based on the concept of syntactic monoids, relates varieties of regular languages with pseudovarieties of finite monoids.

Quantitative Languages Defined by Functional Automata [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2015
A weighted automaton is functional if any two accepting runs on the same finite word have the same value. In this paper, we investigate functional weighted automata for four different measures: the sum, the mean, the discounted sum of weights along edges

Towards Nominal Formal Languages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We introduce formal languages over infinite alphabets where words may contain binders. We define the notions of nominal language, nominal monoid, and nominal regular expressions.

Teaching Python with team‐based learning: using cloud‐based notebooks for interactive coding education

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel approach to teaching Python and bioinformatics using team‐based learning and cloud‐hosted notebooks. By integrating interactive coding into biomedical education, the method improves accessibility, student engagement, and confidence—especially for those without a computing background.
