Weighted DAG Automata for Semantic Graphs [PDF]
Graphs have a variety of uses in natural language processing, particularly as representations of linguistic meaning. A deficit in this area of research is a formal framework for creating, combining, and using models involving graphs that parallels the ...

Pebble Weighted Automata and Weighted Logics [PDF]
We introduce new classes of weighted automata on words. Equipped with pebbles, they go beyond the class of recognizable formal power series: they capture weighted first-order logic enriched with a quantitative version of transitive closure. In contrast to previous work, this calculus allows for unrestricted use of existential and universal ...

Quantitative Languages Defined by Functional Automata [PDF]
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

AbstractThis paper introduces a class of automata and associated languages, suitable to model a computational paradigm of fuzzy systems, in which both vagueness and simultaneity are taken as first-class citizens. This requires a weighted semantics for transitions and a precise notion of a synchronous product to enforce the simultaneous occurrence of ...

Bideterministic Weighted Automata
A finite automaton is called bideterministic if it is both deterministic and codeterministic -- that is, if it is deterministic and its transpose is deterministic as well. The study of such automata in a weighted setting is initiated. All trim bideterministic weighted automata over integral domains and over positive semirings are proved to be minimal ...

A Translation of Weighted LTL Formulas to Weighted Buchi Automata over omega-valuation Monoids
In this paper we introduce a weighted LTL over product omega-valuation monoids that satisfy specific properties. We also introduce weighted generalized Buchi automata with epsilon-transitions, as well as weighted Buchi automata with epsilon-transitions ...

Efficient Completion of Weighted Automata [PDF]
We consider directed graphs with edge labels from a semiring. We present an algorithm that allows efficient execution of queries for existence and weights of paths, and allows updates of the graph: adding nodes and edges, and changing weights of ...

Featured Weighted Automata [PDF]
A featured transition system is a transition system in which the transitions are annotated with feature expressions: Boolean expressions on a finite number of given features. Depending on its feature expression, each individual transition can be enabled when some features are present, and disabled for other sets of features.

Pushing for weighted tree automata [PDF]
A weight normalization procedure, commonly called pushing, is introduced for weighted tree automata (wta) over commutative semifields. The normalization preserves the recognized weighted tree language even for nondeterministic wta, but it is most useful ...

Weight Annotation in Information Extraction [PDF]
The framework of document spanners abstracts the task of information extraction from text as a function that maps every document (a string) into a relation over the document's spans (intervals identified by their start and end indices). For instance, the
