We consider pushdown timed automata (PTAs) that are timed automata (with dense clocks) augmented with a pushdown stack. A configuration of a PTA includes a control state, dense clock values and a stack word. By using the pattern technique,…
Event-driven reactive functionalities are an urgent need in nowadays distributed service-oriented applications and (Semantic) Web-based environments. An important problem to be addressed is how to correctly and efficiently capture and…
We consider a general class of decision problems concerning formal languages, called ``(one-dimensional) unboundedness predicates'', for automata that feature reversal-bounded counters (RBCA). We show that each problem in this class reduces…
In this paper, we study the active time scheduling problem. We are given n jobs with integral processing times each of which has an integral release time and deadline. The goal is to schedule all the jobs on a machine that can work on b…

This paper presents a state-merging algorithm for learning timed languages definable by Event-Recording Automata (ERA) using positive and negative samples in the form of symbolic timed words. Our algorithm, LEAP (Learning Event-recording…
Deploying complex Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) on FPGA-based accelerators is a promising way forward for safety-critical domains such as aeronautics. In a previous work, we have explored the Versatile Tensor Accelerator (VTA) and…
We study the bisimilarity problem for probabilistic pushdown automata (pPDA) and subclasses thereof. Our definition of pPDA allows both probabilistic and non-deterministic branching, generalising the classical notion of pushdown automata…
Timing information leakage occurs whenever an attacker successfully deduces confidential internal information by observing some timed information such as events with timestamps. Timed automata are an extension of finite-state automata with…
Parametric timed automata (PTA) are a powerful formalism to model and reason about concurrent systems with some unknown timing delays. In this paper, we address the (untimed) language- and trace-preservation problems: given a reference…
We consider a computational model which is known as set automata. The set automata are one-way finite automata with an additional storage---the set. There are two kinds of set automata---the deterministic and the nondeterministic ones. We…
Probabilistic timed automata are an extension of timed automata with discrete probability distributions. We consider model-checking algorithms for the subclasses of probabilistic timed automata which have one or two clocks. Firstly, we show…
In this paper, we study the extension of 1-clock Alternating Timed Automata (1-ATA) with the ability to read in both forward and backward direction, the 2-Way 1-clock Alternating Timed Automata (2-Way 1-ATA). We show that subclass of 2-Way…
Pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) like CLIP show strong zero-shot performance but struggle with generalization under distribution shifts. Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) addresses this by adapting VLMs to unlabeled test data in new…
In this paper, we propose a procedure that given an integer reset timed automaton (IRTA) ${\cal A}$, produces a language equivalent deterministic one clock IRTA ${\cal B}$ whose size is at most doubly exponential in the size of ${\cal A}$.…
Cellular automata are both computational and dynamical systems. We give a complete classification of the dynamic behaviour of elementary cellular automata (ECA) in terms of fundamental dynamic system notions such as sensitivity and…
Event-based vision represents a paradigm shift in how vision information is captured and processed. By only responding to dynamic intensity changes in the scene, event-based sensing produces far less data than conventional frame-based…
A classical theorem states that the set of languages given by a pushdown automaton coincides with the set of languages given by a context-free grammar. In previous work, we proved the pendant of this theorem in a setting with interaction:…

We introduce weighted one-deterministic-counter automata (ODCA). These are weighted one-counter automata (OCA) with the property of counter-determinacy, meaning that all paths labelled by a given word starting from the initial configuration…
