Abstract:Identication of deterministic nite automata (DFAs) has an extensive history, both in passive learning and in active learning. Intractability results by Gold [5] and Angluin [1] show that nding the smallest automaton consistent with a set of accepted and rejected strings is NP-complete. Nevertheless, a lot of work has been done on learning DFAs from examples within specic heuristics, starting with Trakhtenbrot and Barzdin's algorithm [15], rediscovered and applied to the discipline of grammatical inference by G… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
