Any infinite uniformly recurrent word ${\bf u}$ can be written as concatenation of a finite number of return words to a chosen prefix $w$ of ${\bf u}$. Ordering of the return words to $w$ in this concatenation is coded by derivated word…

Minimal codes are linear codes where all non-zero codewords are minimal, i.e., whose support is not properly contained in the support of another codeword. The minimum possible length of such a $k$-dimensional linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$…

A position $p$ in a word $w$ is critical if the minimal local period at $p$ is equal to the global period of $w$. According to the Critical Factorisation Theorem all words of length at least two have a critical point. We study the number…

Let $A(n,d)$ (respectively $A(n,d,w)$) be the maximum possible number of codewords in a binary code (respectively binary constant-weight $w$ code) of length $n$ and minimum Hamming distance at least $d$. By adding new linear constraints to…

The palindromic length $\text{PL}(v)$ of a finite word $v$ is the minimal number of palindromes whose concatenation is equal to $v$. In 2013, Frid, Puzynina, and Zamboni conjectured that: If $w$ is an infinite word and $k$ is an integer…

Given a binary word relation $\tau$ onto A * and a finite language X $\subseteq$ A * , a $\tau$-Gray cycle over X consists in a permutation w [i] 0$\le$i$\le$|X|--1 of X such that each word w [i] is an image under $\tau$ of the previous…

We improve the best known upper bound on the length of the shortest reset words of synchronizing automata. The new bound is slightly better than $114 n^3 / 685 + O(n^2)$. The \v{C}ern\'y conjecture states that $(n-1)^2$ is an upper bound.…

We consider the problem of computing the Maximal Exact Matches (MEMs) of a given pattern $P[1 .. m]$ on a large repetitive text collection $T[1 .. n]$, which is represented as a (hopefully much smaller) run-length context-free grammar of…

A mixed Steiner system MS$(t,k,Q)$ is a set (code) $C$ of words of weight $k$ over an alphabet $Q$, where not all coordinates of a word have the same alphabet size, each word of weight $t$, over $Q$, has distance $k-t$ from exactly one…

The prefix palindromic length $PPL_u(n)$ of an infinite word $u$ is the minimal number of concatenated palindromes needed to express the prefix of length $n$ of $u$. In a 2013 paper with Puzynina and Zamboni we stated the conjecture that…

We consider partitions of a point set into two parts, and the lengths of the minimum spanning trees of the original set and of the two parts. If $w(P)$ denotes the length of a minimum spanning tree of $P$, we show that every set $P$ of $n…

Continuous sign language recognition (SLR) deals with unaligned video-text pair and uses the word error rate (WER), i.e., edit distance, as the main evaluation metric. Since it is not differentiable, we usually instead optimize the learning…

We propose a scalable divergence estimation method based on hashing. Consider two continuous random variables $X$ and $Y$ whose densities have bounded support. We consider a particular locality sensitive random hashing, and consider the…

Let $(X_k)_{k\geq 1}$ and $(Y_k)_{k\geq 1}$ be two independent sequences of i.i.d. random variables, with values in a finite and totally ordered alphabet $\mathcal{A}_m:=\{1,\dots,m\}$, and having respective probability mass function…

In a \emph{weighted sequence}, for every position of the sequence and every letter of the alphabet a probability of occurrence of this letter at this position is specified. Weighted sequences are commonly used to represent imprecise or…

Piecewise testable languages are a subclass of the regular languages. There are many equivalent ways of defining them; Simon's congruence $\sim_k$ is one of the most classical approaches. Two words are $\sim_k$-equivalent if they have the…

This paper provides an upper bound for several subsets of maximal repeats and maximal pairs in compressed strings and also presents a formerly unknown relationship between maximal pairs and the run-length Burrows-Wheeler transform. This…

The recently confirmed Dejean's conjecture about the threshold between avoidable and unavoidable powers of words gave rise to interesting and challenging problems on the structure and growth of threshold words. Over any finite alphabet with…

Convex relaxations of the optimal finger selection algorithm are proposed for a minimum mean square error (MMSE) Rake receiver in an impulse radio ultra-wideband system. First, the optimal finger selection problem is formulated as an…

In recent years, neural machine translation (NMT) has become the dominant approach in automated translation. However, like many other deep learning approaches, NMT suffers from overfitting when the amount of training data is limited. This…
