Generalized probabilistic modus ponens

2017

Modus ponens (from A and “if A then C” infer C) is one of the most basic inference rules. The probabilistic modus ponens allows for managing uncertainty by transmitting assigned uncertainties from the premises to the conclusion (i.e., from P(A) and P(C|A) infer P(C)). In this paper, we generalize the probabilistic modus ponens by replacing A by the conditional event A|H. The resulting inference rule involves iterated conditionals (formalized by conditional random quantities) and propagates previsions from the premises to the conclusion. Interestingly, the propagation rules for the lower and the upper bounds on the conclusion of the generalized probabilistic modus ponens coincide with the re…

Partial Finitely Generated Bi-Ideals

2016

Partial words have been studied by Blanchet-Sadri et al., but bi-ideals or reccurrent words have been studied for centuries by many researchers. This paper gives a solution for some problems for partial reccurrent words. This paper gives an algorithm for a given finitely generated bi-ideal, how to construct a new basis of ultimately finitely generated bi-ideal, which generates the same given bi-ideal. The paper states that it is always possible to find a basis for a given finitely generated bi-ideal. The main results of this paper are presented in third section. At first, we show that if two irreduciable bi-ideals are different, they will differ in infinitely many places. This led to the st…

Lower Bounds and Hierarchies for Quantum Memoryless Communication Protocols and Quantum Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams with Repeated Test

2017

We explore multi-round quantum memoryless communication protocols. These are restricted version of multi-round quantum communication protocols. The “memoryless” term means that players forget history from previous rounds, and their behavior is obtained only by input and message from the opposite player. The model is interesting because this allows us to get lower bounds for models like automata, Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams and streaming algorithms. At the same time, we can prove stronger results with this restriction. We present a lower bound for quantum memoryless protocols. Additionally, we show a lower bound for Disjointness function for this model. As an application of communicatio…

The Descriptive Complexity Approach to LOGCFL

1999

Building upon the known generalized-quantifier-based firstorder characterization of LOGCFL, we lay the groundwork for a deeper investigation. Specifically, we examine subclasses of LOGCFL arising from varying the arity and nesting of groupoidal quantifiers. Our work extends the elaborate theory relating monoidal quantifiers to NC1 and its subclasses. In the absence of the BIT predicate, we resolve the main issues: we show in particular that no single outermost unary groupoidal quantifier with FO can capture all the context-free languages, and we obtain the surprising result that a variant of Greibach's "hardest contextfree language" is LOGCFL-complete under quantifier-free BIT-free interpre…

Uncountable classical and quantum complexity classes

2018

It is known that poly-time constant-space quantum Turing machines (QTMs) and logarithmic-space probabilistic Turing machines (PTMs) recognize uncountably many languages with bounded error (A.C. Cem Say and A. Yakaryılmaz, Magic coins are useful for small-space quantum machines. Quant. Inf. Comput. 17 (2017) 1027–1043). In this paper, we investigate more restricted cases for both models to recognize uncountably many languages with bounded error. We show that double logarithmic space is enough for PTMs on unary languages in sweeping reading mode or logarithmic space for one-way head. On unary languages, for quantum models, we obtain middle logarithmic space for counter machines. For binary la…

Uncountable Realtime Probabilistic Classes

2018

We investigate the minimal cases for realtime probabilistic machines that can define uncountably many languages with bounded error. We show that logarithmic space is enough for realtime PTMs on unary languages. On non-unary case, we obtain the same result for double logarithmic space, which is also tight. When replacing the work tape with a few counters, we can still achieve similar results for unary linear-space two-counter automata, unary sublinear-space three-counter automata, and non-unary sublinear-space two-counter automata. We also show how to slightly improve the sublinear-space constructions by using more counters.

Theory of tailor automata

2019

Abstract In the paper, a fragment of the new theory of tailor automata is presented, within which a deterministic finite automaton was defined. The proposed automaton provides a theoretical model of an informally characterized biomolecular automaton. The idea of working of which is founded on the concept of alternating cut of some double-stranded fragments of DNA, with the use of a restriction enzyme and ligations of some double-stranded fragments of DNA, with the use of the ligase enzyme.

About Graph Mappings

2019

Summary In this articles adjacency-preserving mappings from a graph to another are formalized in the Mizar system [7], [2]. The generality of the approach seems to be largely unpreceeded in the literature to the best of the author’s knowledge. However, the most important property defined in the article is that of two graphs being isomorphic, which has been extensively studied. Another graph decorator is introduced as well.

An empirically grounded agent based model for modeling directs, conflict detection and resolution operations in air traffic management

2017

We present an agent based model of the Air Traffic Management socio-technical complex system that aims at modeling the interactions between aircrafts and air traffic controllers at a tactical level. The core of the model is given by the conflict detection and resolution module and by the directs module. Directs are flight shortcuts that are given by air controllers to speed up the passage of an aircraft within a certain airspace and therefore to facilitate airline operations. Conflicts resolution between flight trajectories can arise during the en-route phase of each flight due to both not detailed flight trajectory planning or unforeseen events that perturb the planned flight plan. Our mod…
