We find an application in quantum finite automata for the ideas and results of [JL21] and [JL22]. We reformulate quantum finite automata with multiple-time measurements using the algebraic notion of near-ring. This gives a unified…

We present $L^{\#}$, a new and simple approach to active automata learning. Instead of focusing on equivalence of observations, like the $L^{\ast}$ algorithm and its descendants, $L^{\#}$ takes a different perspective: it tries to establish…

This work attempts to explain the types of computation that neural networks can perform by relating them to automata. We first define what it means for a real-time network with bounded precision to accept a language. A measure of network…

Many methods for the verification of complex computer systems require the existence of a tractable mathematical abstraction of the system, often in the form of an automaton. In reality, however, such a model is hard to come up with, in…
