Human-designed rules are widely used to build industry applications. However, it is infeasible to maintain thousands of such hand-crafted rules. So it is very important to integrate the rule knowledge into neural networks to build a hybrid…
A DFA separates two disjoint languages $L_1$ and $L_2$ if it accepts every word in $L_1$ and rejects every word in $L_2$. Algorithms for active learning of small separating DFAs have many applications, e.g., for learning network invariants,…

#NFA refers to the problem of counting the words of length $n$ accepted by a non-deterministic finite automaton. #NFA is #P-hard, and although fully-polynomial-time randomized approximation schemes (FPRAS) exist, they are all impractical.…
Regular expressions (res), because of their succinctness and clear syntax, are the common choice to represent regular languages. However, efficient pattern matching or word recognition depend on the size of the equivalent nondeterministic…
