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…

The number of states and stack symbols needed to determinize nondeterministic input-driven pushdown automata (NIDPDA) working over a fixed alphabet is determined precisely. It is proved that in the worst case exactly 2^{n^2} states are…

Despite great strides in language-guided manipulation, existing work has been constrained to table-top settings. Table-tops allow for perfect and consistent camera angles, properties are that do not hold in mobile manipulation. Task plans…

Timed languages contain sequences of discrete events ("letters'') separated by real-valued delays, they can be recognized by timed automata, and represent behaviors of various real-time systems. The notion of bandwidth of a timed language…

Soft attention is a critical mechanism powering LLMs to locate relevant parts within a given context. However, individual attention weights are determined by the similarity of only a single query and key token vector. This "single token…

In this paper we introduce and study Event-Clock Nested Automata (ECNA), a formalism that combines Event Clock Automata (ECA) and Visibly Pushdown Automata (VPA). ECNA allow to express real-time properties over non-regular patterns of…

Given a member A of the class of non-deterministic timed automata with silent transitions (eNTA), we effectively compute its timestamp: the set of all pairs (time value, action) of all observable timed traces of A, a generalization of the…

Over the last 25 years, a lot of work has been done on seeking for decidable non-regular extensions of Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL). Only recently, an expressive extension of PDL, allowing visibly pushdown automata (VPAs) as a…

We examine the behaviors of various models of $k$-limited automata, which naturally extend Hibbard's [Inf. Control, vol. 11, pp. 196--238, 1967] scan limited automata, each of which is a single-tape linear-bounded automaton satisfying the…
