“…In a similar way, finite-state tree automata have been extended to weighted tree automata (wta) over various weight algebras, e.g., complete distributive lattices [IF75,ÉL07], fields [BR82], commutative semirings [AB87], strong bimonoids [Rad10,DFKV20], multioperator monoids [Kui99, FMV09, FSV12], and tree-valuation monoids [DHV15]. In any case, a wta A recognizes a weighted tree language [[A]] (or: formal tree series), i.e., a mapping from the set of input trees to the carrier set of the weight algebra.…”
