Inductive inference of logic programs based on algebraic semantics

In this paper we present a new inductive inference algorithm for a class of logic programs, calledlinear monadic logic programs. It has several unique features not found in Shapiro’s Model Inference System. It has been proved that a set of trees isrational if and only if it is computed by a linear monadic logic program, and that the rational set of trees is recognized by a tree automaton. Based on these facts, we can reduce the problem of inductive inference of linear monadic logic programs to the problem of inductive inference of tree automata. Further several efficient inference algorithms for finite automata have been developed. We extend them to an inference algorithm for tree automata and use it to get an efficient inductive inference algorithm for linear monadic logic programs. The correctness, time complexity and several comparisons of our algorithm with Model Inference System are shown.     

Some Notes on Graph Automata, TilingSystems and Partition Logic

Introduce heuristically the newly definition(W.Thomas)for graph automata-using “tiles”to simulate the extension(over dag‘s) of the classical notions of transition moves;propose a sufficient condition for when graph automata can be reduced to (simpler)tiling systems,which is a generalization of a Thomas‘ result;and finally study the logic sepcification of tiling systems (particularly,over picture languages)by (existential)monadic partition logic,instead of the ususal and stronger framework(E)MSO.

A Büchi-Like Theorem for Weighted Tree Automata over Multioperator Monoids

A multioperator monoid A\mathcal{A} is a commutative monoid with additional operations on its carrier set. A weighted tree automaton over A\mathcal{A} is a finite state tree automaton of which each transition is equipped with an operation of A\mathcal{A}. We define M-expressions over A\mathcal{A} in the spirit of formulas of weighted monadic second-order logics and, as our main result, we prove that if A\mathcal{A} is absorptive, then the class of tree series recognizable by weighted tree automata over A\mathcal{A} coincides with the class of tree series definable by M-expressions over A\mathcal{A}. This result implies the known fact that for the series over semirings recognizability by weighted tree automata is equivalent with definability in syntactically restricted weighted monadic second-order logic. We prove this implication by providing two purely syntactical transformations, from M-expressions into formulas of syntactically restricted weighted monadic second-order logic, and vice versa.     

The monadic second-order logic of graphs V: on closing the gap between definability and recognizability

Context-free graph-grammars are considered such that, in every generated graph G, a derivation tree of G can be constructed by means of monadic second-order formulas that specify its nodes, its labels, the successors of a node etc. A subset of the set of graphs generated by such a grammar is recognizable iff it is definable in monadic second-order logic, whereas, in general, only the “if” direction holds.     

Timer formulas and decidable metric temporal logic

We define a quantitative temporal logic that is based on a simple modality within the framework of monadic predicate logic. Its canonical model is the real line (and not an ω-sequence of some type). It can be interpreted either by behaviors with finite variability or by unrestricted behaviors. For finite variability models it is as expressive as any logic suggested in the literature. For unrestricted behaviors our treatment is new. In both cases we prove decidability and complexity bounds using general theorems from logic (and not from automata theory). The technical proof uses a sublanguage of the metric monadic logic of order, the language of timer normal form formulas. Metric formulas are reduced to timer normal form and timer normal form formulas allow elimination of the metric.     

Models for quantitative distributed systems and multi-valued logics

We investigate weighted asynchronous cellular automata (wACAs) with weights in valuation monoids. These automata form a distributed extension of weighted finite automata (wFAs) and allow us to model concurrency. Valuation monoids are abstract weight structures that include semirings and (non-distributive) bounded lattices but also offer the possibility to model average behaviours. We prove that wACAs and wFAs which satisfy an I-diamond property are equally expressive. The main result of this paper gives a characterization of this expressiveness by weighted monadic second-order logic.     

PSL构造双向交换自动机及非确定自动机的方法

PSL(property specification language)是一种用于描述并行系统的属性规约语言,包括线性时序逻辑FL(foundation language)和分支时序逻辑OBE(optional branching extension)两部分.由于OBE就是CTL(computation tree logic),并且具有时钟声明的公式很容易改写成非时钟公式,因此重点研究了非时钟FL逻辑.为便于进行模型检验,每个FL公式必须转化成为一种可验证形式,通常是自动机(非确定自动机).构造非确定自动机的过程主要是通过中间构建交换自动机来实现.详细给出了由非时钟FL构造双向交换自动机的构造规则.构造规则的核心逻辑不仅仅局限于是在LTL(linear temporal logic)基础上的正规表达式,而且全面而充分地考虑了各种FL操作算子的可能性.并且给出了将双向交换自动机转化为非确定自动机的一种方法.最后,编写了将PSL转化为上述自动机的实现工具.FL双向交换自动机的构造规则计算复杂度仅是FL公式长度的线性表达式,验证了构造规则的正确性.在此基础上,证明了双向交换自动机与其转化的等价的非确定自动机接受的语言相同.上述工作对解决复杂并行系统建模和模型验证问题具有重要的理论意义和应用价值.
