We prove that two-way probabilistic and quantum finite automata (2PFA's and 2QFA's) can be considerably more concise than both their one-way versions (1PFA's and 1QFA's), and two-way nondeterministic finite automata (2NFA's). For this…
Grammatical inference consists in learning a formal grammar as a finite state machine or as a set of rewrite rules. In this paper, we are concerned with inferring Nondeterministic Finite Automata (NFA) that must accept some words, and…
The problem DFA-Intersection-Nonemptiness asks if a given number of deterministic automata accept a common word. In general, this problem is PSPACE-complete. Here, we investigate this problem for the subclasses of commutative automata and…

Similarity search is a fundamental operation for analyzing data series (DS), which are ordered sequences of real values. To enhance efficiency, summarization techniques are employed that reduce the dimensionality of DS. SAX-based approaches…
We propose a new parallel framework for fast computation of inverse and forward dynamics of articulated robots based on prefix sums (scans). We re-investigate the well-known recursive Newton-Euler formulation of robot dynamics and show that…
Given an order of the underlying alphabet we can lift it to the states of a finite deterministic automaton: to compare states we use the order of the strings reaching them. When the order on strings is the co-lexicographic one \emph{and}…
