L -valued bornologies on powersets
2016
In M. Abel and A. ostak (2011) [1], the concept of an L-fuzzy bornology was introduced. Actually, an L-fuzzy bornology on a set X is a certain ideal in the family LX of L-fuzzy subsets of a set X. Here we propose an alternative approach to fuzzification of the concept of bornology. We define an L-valued bornology on a set X as an L-fuzzy subset B of the powerset 2X satisfying L-valued analogues of the axioms of a bornology. Basic properties of L-valued bornological spaces are studied. Our special interest concerns L-valued bornologies induced by fuzzy metrics and relative compactness-type L-valued bornologies in ChangGoguen L-topological spaces.
Very Narrow Quantum OBDDs and Width Hierarchies for Classical OBDDs
2014
In the paper we investigate a model for computing of Boolean functions – Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs), which is a restricted version of Branching Programs. We present several results on the comparative complexity for several variants of OBDD models. We present some results on the comparative complexity of classical and quantum OBDDs. We consider a partial function depending on a parameter k such that for any k > 0 this function is computed by an exact quantum OBDD of width 2, but any classical OBDD (deterministic or stable bounded-error probabilistic) needs width 2 k + 1. We consider quantum and classical nondeterminism. We show that quantum nondeterminism can be more efficient …
Centering and Compound Conditionals under Coherence
2016
There is wide support in logic , philosophy , and psychology for the hypothesis that the probability of the indicative conditional of natural language, \(P(\textit{if } A \textit{ then } B)\), is the conditional probability of B given A, P(B|A). We identify a conditional which is such that \(P(\textit{if } A \textit{ then } B)= P(B|A)\) with de Finetti’s conditional event, B|A. An objection to making this identification in the past was that it appeared unclear how to form compounds and iterations of conditional events. In this paper, we illustrate how to overcome this objection with a probabilistic analysis, based on coherence, of these compounds and iterations. We interpret the compounds a…
Automata and differentiable words
2011
We exhibit the construction of a deterministic automaton that, given k > 0, recognizes the (regular) language of k-differentiable words. Our approach follows a scheme of Crochemore et al. based on minimal forbidden words. We extend this construction to the case of C\infinity-words, i.e., words differentiable arbitrary many times. We thus obtain an infinite automaton for representing the set of C\infinity-words. We derive a classification of C\infinity-words induced by the structure of the automaton. Then, we introduce a new framework for dealing with \infinity-words, based on a three letter alphabet. This allows us to define a compacted version of the automaton, that we use to prove that ev…
Quantum Finite Automata and Logics
2006
The connection between measure once quantum finite automata (MO-QFA) and logic is studied in this paper. The language class recognized by MO-QFA is compared to languages described by the first order logics and modular logics. And the equivalence between languages accepted by MO-QFA and languages described by formulas using Lindstrom quantifier is shown.
The Phagocyte Lattice of Dyck Words
2006
We introduce a new lattice structure on Dyck words. We exhibit efficient algorithms to compute meets and joins of Dyck words.
Generating binary trees by Glivenko classes on Tamari lattices
2003
Using algebraic-theoretic results, we give an algorithm for generating binary trees within Glivenko classes in Tamari lattices. Tamari lattices are lattices of binary trees endowed by the well-known rotation transformation.
Tensor product multiresolution analysis with error control for compact image representation
2002
A class of multiresolution representations based on nonlinear prediction is studied in the multivariate context based on tensor product strategies. In contrast to standard linear wavelet transforms, these representations cannot be thought of as a change of basis, and the error induced by thresholding or quantizing the coefficients requires a different analysis. We propose specific error control algorithms which ensure a prescribed accuracy in various norms when performing such operations on the coefficients. These algorithms are compared with standard thresholding, for synthetic and real images.
Language Recognition Power and Succinctness of Affine Automata
2016
In this work we study a non-linear generalization based on affine transformations of probabilistic and quantum automata proposed recently by Diaz-Caro and Yakaryilmaz [6] referred as affine automata. First, we present efficient simulations of probabilistic and quantum automata by means of affine automata which allows us to characterize the class of exclusive stochastic languages. Then, we initiate a study on the succintness of affine automata. In particular, we show that an infinite family of unary regular languages can be recognized by 2-state affine automata, whereas the number of states of any quantum and probabilistic automata cannot be bounded. Finally, we present the characterization …
On the Class of Languages Recognizable by 1-Way Quantum Finite Automata
2007
It is an open problem to characterize the class of languages recognized by quantum finite automata (QFA). We examine some necessary and some sufficient conditions for a (regular) language to be recognizable by a QFA. For a subclass of regular languages we get a condition which is necessary and sufficient. Also, we prove that the class of languages recognizable by a QFA is not closed under union or any other binary Boolean operation where both arguments are significant.
