Semantic Labelling in Practice

Logic in Computer Science 2026-07-01 v1

Abstract

Automating semantic labelling for termination proofs is a combinatorially hard problem since the number of algebras grows prohibitively large even for small domains. We report on experiments with our tools Matchbox and MnM, comparing various model finding strategies: exhaustive enumeration for bounded domain sizes within restricted search spaces, and semantic context-closure for fixed algebras.
