In this paper we prove several results on normal forms for linear displacement context-free grammars. The results themselves are rather simple and use well-known techniques, but they are extensively used in more complex constructions.…

We show that if a context-free grammar generates a language whose lexicographic ordering is well-ordered of type less than $\omega^2$, then its order type is effectively computable.

Grammatical inference is a machine learning area, whose fundamentals are built around learning sets. At present, real-life data and examples from manually crafted grammars are used to test their learning performance. This paper aims to…

In this paper we consider the problem of context-free grammars comparison from the analysis point of view. We show that the problem can be reduced to numerical solution of systems of nonlinear matrix equations. The approach presented here…

We study the problem of generating interesting integer sequences with a combinatorial interpretation. For this we introduce a two-step approach. In the first step, we generate first-order logic sentences which define some combinatorial…

Probabilistic context-free grammars have a long-term record of use as generative models in machine learning and symbolic regression. When used for symbolic regression, they generate algebraic expressions. We define the latter as equivalence…

The aim of this article is to define some new families of the special numbers. These numbers provide some further motivation for computation of combinatorial sums involving binomial coefficients and the Euler kind numbers of negative order.…

In this work, the Hao grammar $G=\{\, u\rightarrow u^{b_1+b_2+1} v^{a_1+a_2},\quad v\rightarrow u^{b_2}v^{a_2+1} \,\},$ together with the correspondence between grammars and combinatorial differential equations, is employed to obtain an…

Context-free grammars are not able to model cross-serial dependencies in natural languages. To overcome this issue, Seki et al. introduced a generalization called $m$-multiple context-free grammars ($m$-MCFGs), which deal with $m$-tuples of…

In this paper we consider the problem of efficient computation of cross-moments of a vector random variable represented by a stochastic context-free grammar. Two types of cross-moments are discussed. The sample space for the first one is…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a grammatical labeling to describe a recursive process of generating combinatorial objects based on a context-free grammar. For example, by labeling the ascents and descents of a Stirling…

The concept of context-free grammar in Combinatorics was first introduced by Chen in 1993. In 1996, Dumont significantly extended the theory of context-free grammars to a variety of other combinatorial models. Substantial progress in this…

Two formalisms, both based on context-free grammars, have recently been proposed as a basis for a non-uniform random generation of combinatorial objects. The former, introduced by Denise et al, associates weights with letters, while the…
