Stochastic process semantics for dynamical grammars

Abstract: We define a class of probabilistic models in terms of an operator algebra of stochastic processes, and a representation for this class in terms of stochastic parameterized grammars. A syntactic specification of a grammar is formally mapped to semantics given in terms of a ring of operators, so that composition of grammars corresponds to operator addition or multiplication. The operators are generators for the time-evolution of stochastic processes. The dynamical evolution occurs in continuous time but is relat… Show more

“…These calculi generally fall into one of two camps: ones based on process calculi, such as Milner's pi-calculus [24], and rule-based ones. Examples of the former include [31,32,30]; examples of the latter include BIOCHAM, 魏, BioNetGen, and Dynamical Grammars [2,6,15,26]. One positive feature of the rule-based approach is that rules correspond naturally to biological events, with a main example being chemical reactions.…”

“…In giving these semantics we take up a suggestion of Pedersen [29] to incorporate the various semantics within a general framework, here using commutative monoids. (This is strongly connected to the use of rings of operators by Mjolsness and Yosiphon [26]. )…”
