On parsing optimality for dictionary-based text compression—the Zip case
2013
Dictionary-based compression schemes are the most commonly used data compression schemes since they appeared in the foundational paper of Ziv and Lempel in 1977, and generally referred to as LZ77. Their work is the base of Zip, gZip, 7-Zip and many other compression software utilities. Some of these compression schemes use variants of the greedy approach to parse the text into dictionary phrases; others have left the greedy approach to improve the compression ratio. Recently, two bit-optimal parsing algorithms have been presented filling the gap between theory and best practice. We present a survey on the parsing problem for dictionary-based text compression, identifying noticeable results …
On the role of non-effective code in linear genetic programming
2019
In linear variants of Genetic Programming (GP) like linear genetic programming (LGP), structural introns can emerge, which are nodes that are not connected to the final output and do not contribute to the output of a program. There are claims that such non-effective code is beneficial for search, as it can store relevant and important evolved information that can be reactivated in later search phases. Furthermore, introns can increase diversity, which leads to higher GP performance. This paper studies the role of non-effective code by comparing the performance of LGP variants that deal differently with non-effective code for standard symbolic regression problems. As we find no decrease in p…
Soft Pyramid Symmetry Transforms
2005
Pyramid computation is a natural paradigm of computation in planning strategies and multi-resolution image analysis. This paper introduces a new paradigm that is based on the concept of soft-hierarchical operators implemented in a pyramid architecture to retrieve global versus local symmetries. The concept of symmetry is mathematically well defined in geometry whenever patterns are crisp images (two levels). Necessity for a soft approach occurs whenever images are multi-levels and the separation between object and background is subjective or not well defined. The paper describes a new pyramid operator to detect symmetries and shows some experiments supporting the approach. This work has bee…
A Tool for Implementing and Exploring SBM Models: Universal 1D Invertible Cellular Automata
2005
The easiest form of designing Cellular Automata rules with features such as invertibility or particle conserving is to rely on a partitioning scheme, the most important of which is the 2D Margolus neighborhood. In this paper we introduce a 1D Margolus-like neighborhood that gives support to a complete set of Cellular Automata models. We present a set of models called Sliding Ball Models based on this neighborhood and capable of universal computation. We show the way of designing logic gates with these models, propose a digital structure to implement them and finally we present SBMTool, a software development system capable of working with the new models.
Gl-learning
2016
In this paper, we present a new open-source software library, Gl-learning, for grammatical inference. The rise of new application scenarios in recent years has required optimized methods to address knowledge extraction from huge amounts of data and to model highly complex systems. Our library implements the main state-of-the-art algorithms in the grammatical inference field (RPNI, EDSM, L*), redesigned through the OpenMP library for a parallel execution that drastically decreases execution times. To our best knowledge, it is also the first comprehensive library including a noise tolerance learning algorithm, such as Blue*, that significantly broadens the range of the potential application s…
Tabu search for the dynamic Bipartite Drawing Problem
2018
Abstract Drawings of graphs have many applications and they are nowadays well-established tools in computer science in general, and optimization in particular. Project scheduling is one of the many areas in which representation of graphs constitutes an important instrument. The experience shows that the main quality desired for drawings of graphs is readability, and crossing reduction is a fundamental aesthetic criterion to achieve it. Incremental or dynamic graph drawing is an emerging topic in this context, where we seek to preserve the layout of a graph over successive drawings. In this paper, we target the edge crossing reduction in the context of incremental graph drawing. Specifically…
On enhancing the object migration automaton using the Pursuit paradigm
2017
Abstract One of the most difficult problems that is all-pervasive in computing is that of partitioning. It has applications in the partitioning of databases into relations, the realization of the relations themselves into sub-relations based on the partitioning of the attributes, the assignment of processes to processors, graph partitioning, and the task assignment problem, etc. The problem is known to be NP-hard. The benchmark solution for this for the Equi-Partitioning Problem (EPP) has involved the classic field of Learning Automata (LA), and the corresponding algorithm, the Object Migrating Automata (OMA) has been used in all of these application domains. While the OMA is a fixed struct…
Projector operators in clustering
2016
In a recent paper, the notion of quantum perceptron has been introduced in connection with projection operators. Here, we extend this idea, using these kind of operators to produce a clustering machine, that is, a framework that generates different clusters from a set of input data. Also, we consider what happens when the orthonormal bases first used in the definition of the projectors are replaced by frames and how these can be useful when trying to connect some noised signal to a given cluster.

The Hierarchical Continuous Pursuit Learning Automation: A Novel Scheme for Environments With Large Numbers of Actions.
2019
Although the field of learning automata (LA) has made significant progress in the past four decades, the LA-based methods to tackle problems involving environments with a large number of actions is, in reality, relatively unresolved. The extension of the traditional LA to problems within this domain cannot be easily established when the number of actions is very large. This is because the dimensionality of the action probability vector is correspondingly large, and so, most components of the vector will soon have values that are smaller than the machine accuracy permits, implying that they will never be chosen . This paper presents a solution that extends the continuous pursuit paradigm to …
The Hierarchical Continuous Pursuit Learning Automation for Large Numbers of Actions
2018
Part 10: Learning - Intelligence; International audience; Although the field of Learning Automata (LA) has made significant progress in the last four decades, the LA-based methods to tackle problems involving environments with a large number of actions are, in reality, relatively unresolved. The extension of the traditional LA (fixed structure, variable structure, discretized, and pursuit) to problems within this domain cannot be easily established when the number of actions is very large. This is because the dimensionality of the action probability vector is correspondingly large, and consequently, most components of the vector will, after a relatively short time, have values that are smal…
