This paper concerns a specific class of strict standard episturmian words whose directive words resemble those of characteristic Sturmian words. In particular, we explicitly determine all integer powers occurring in such infinite words,…
A word is called closed if it has a prefix which is also its suffix and there is no internal occurrences of this prefix in the word. In this paper we study words that are rich in closed factors, i.e., which contain the maximal possible…
An infinite word has the property $R_m$ if every factor has exactly $m$ return words. Vuillon showed that $R_2$ characterizes Sturmian words. We prove that a word satisfies $R_m$ if its complexity function is $(m-1)n+1$ and if it contains…
We present an unsupervised word segmentation model, in which the learning objective is to maximize the generation probability of a sentence given its all possible segmentation. Such generation probability can be factorized into the…
We present a new recursive generation algorithm for prefix normal words. These are binary strings with the property that no substring has more 1s than the prefix of the same length. The new algorithm uses two operations on binary strings,…
Two finite words $u$ and $v$ are called abelian equivalent if each letter occurs equally many times in both $u$ and $v$. The abelian closure $\mathcal{A}(\mathbf{x})$ of an infinite word $\mathbf{x}$ is the set of infinite words…
Complementary symmetric Rote sequences are binary sequences which have factor complexity $\mathcal{C}(n) = 2n$ for all integers $n \geq 1$ and whose languages are closed under the exchange of letters. These sequences are intimately linked…
Consider a Leibniz superalgebra $\mathfrak L$ additionally graded by an arbitrary set $I$ (set grading). We show that $\mathfrak L$ decomposes as the sum of well-described graded ideals plus (maybe) a suitable linear subspace. In the case…
The word problem for Thompson's group $F$ has a solution, but it remains unknown whether $F$ is automatic or has a finite or regular convergent (terminating and confluent) rewriting system. We show that the group $F$ admits a natural…
Tree ensembles (TEs) find a multitude of practical applications. They represent one of the most general and accurate classes of machine learning methods. While they are typically quite concise in representation, their operation remains…
We define a suffixient set for a text $T [1..n]$ to be a set $S$ of positions between 1 and $n$ such that, for any edge descending from a node $u$ to a node $v$ in the suffix tree of $T$, there is an element $s \in S$ such that $u$'s path…
In this paper we address the decision problem for a fragment of set theory with restricted quantification which extends the language studied in [4] with pair related quantifiers and constructs, in view of possible applications in the field…
We solve the problem of finding interspersed maximal repeats using a suffix array construction. As it is well known, all the functionality of suffix trees can be handled by suffix arrays, gaining practicality. Our solution improves the…
A subset of vertices is a {\it maximum independent set} if no two of the vertices are adjacent and the subset has maximum cardinality. A subset of vertices is called a {\it maximum dissociation set} if it induces a subgraph with vertex…
We define a `tree of fusion systems' and give a sufficient condition for its completion to be saturated. We apply this result to enlarge an arbitrary fusion system by extending the automorphism groups of certain of its subgroups.
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the unimodality of a convolution of two sequences of binomial coefficients preceded by a finite number of ones. These convolution sequences arise as as rank sequences of posets of…
This paper presents a tree-to-tree transduction method for sentence compression. Our model is based on synchronous tree substitution grammar, a formalism that allows local distortion of the tree topology and can thus naturally capture…
We consider finite trees with edges labeled by letters on a finite alphabet $\varSigma$. Each pair of nodes defines a unique labeled path whose trace is a word of the free monoid $\varSigma^*$. The set of all such words defines the language…
We adapt the vertical and horizontal insertion encodings of Cayley permutations to enumerate restricted growth functions, which are in bijection with unordered set partitions. For both insertion encodings, we fully classify the classes for…
We introduce a model for bidirectional retrieval of images and sentences through a multi-modal embedding of visual and natural language data. Unlike previous models that directly map images or sentences into a common embedding space, our…
