We investigate the state complexity of the shuffle operation on regular languages initiated by Campeanu et al. and studied subsequently by Brzozowski et al. We shift the problem into the combinatorics domain by turning the problem of state…

Mechanical learning is a computing system that is based on a set of simple and fixed rules, and can learn from incoming data. A learning machine is a system that realizes mechanical learning. Importantly, we emphasis that it is based on a…

Given a countable set X (usually taken to be N or Z), an infinite permutation $\pi$ of X is a linear ordering $<_\pi$ of X. This paper investigates the combinatorial complexity of infinite permutations on N associated with the image of…

Multi-stack machines and Turing machines can simulate to each other. In this note, we give a succinct definition of multi-stack machines, and from this definition it is clearly seen that pushdown automata and deterministic finite automata…

Nobody knows how language works, but many theories abound. Transformers are a class of neural networks that process language automatically with more success than alternatives, both those based on neural computations and those that rely on…

We study the visual complexity of animated transitions between point sets. Although there exist many metrics for point set similarity, these metrics are not adequate for this purpose, as they typically treat each point separately. Instead,…

State symmetries are defined as permutations which act on vector spaces of column vectors and square matrices, resulting in isotropy groups for specific vector spaces. A large number of properties for such objects is shown, to provide a…

An attractive mechanism to specify global constraints in rostering and other domains is via formal languages. For instance, the Regular and Grammar constraints specify constraints in terms of the languages accepted by an automaton and a…

Every language recognized by a non-deterministic finite automaton can be recognized by a deterministic automaton, at the cost of a potential increase of the number of states, which in the worst case can go from $n$ states to $2^n$ states.…

Most existing Neural Machine Translation models use groups of characters or whole words as their unit of input and output. We propose a model with a hierarchical char2word encoder, that takes individual characters both as input and output.…
