Hyper-Minimization for Deterministic Weighted Tree Automata

Abstract: Hyper-minimization is a state reduction technique that allows a finite change in the semantics. The theory for hyper-minimization of deterministic weighted tree automata is provided. The presence of weights slightly complicates the situation in comparison to the unweighted case. In addition, the first hyper-minimization algorithm for deterministic weighted tree automata, weighted over commutative semifields, is provided together with some implementation remarks that enable an efficient implementation. In fact,… Show more

“…This constraint is rather simplistic, but it allows a convenient theoretical treatment [16] and efficient minimization algorithms [17][18][19][20]. Besides there are models for which finitely many errors are absolutely inconsequential [21].…”

“…Since hyper-minimization trivially reduces to minimization [8], faster hyper-minimization algorithms would imply faster minimization algorithms, which have remained elusive. Hyper-minimization was already generalized to weighted dfa [13] and to dfa over innite strings [15]. An overview of existing hyper-minimization algorithms can be found in [12].…”
