Descriptional and Computational Complexity of the Circuit Representation of Finite Automata
2018
In this paper we continue to investigate the complexity of the circuit representation of DFA—BC-complexity. We compare it with nondeterministic state complexity, obtain upper and lower bounds which differ only by a factor of 4 for a Binary input alphabet. Also we prove that many simple operations (determining if a state is reachable or if an automaton is minimal) are PSPACE-complete for DFA given in circuit representation.
Multiple Usage of Random Bits in Finite Automata
2012
Finite automata with random bits written on a separate 2-way readable tape can recognize languages not recognizable by probabilistic finite automata. This shows that repeated reading of random bits by finite automata can have big advantages over one-time reading of random bits.
Tally languages accepted by Monte Carlo pushdown automata
1997
Rather often difficult (and sometimes even undecidable) problems become easily decidable for tally languages, i.e. for languages in a single-letter alphabet. For instance, the class of languages recognizable by 1-way nondeterministic pushdown automata equals the class of the context-free languages, but the class of the tally languages recognizable by 1-way nondeterministic pushdown automata, contains only regular languages [LP81]. We prove that languages over one-letter alphabet accepted by randomized one-way 1-tape Monte Carlo pushdown automata are regular. However Monte Carlo pushdown automata can be much more concise than deterministic 1-way finite state automata.
The computational power of continuous time neural networks
1997
We investigate the computational power of continuous-time neural networks with Hopfield-type units. We prove that polynomial-size networks with saturated-linear response functions are at least as powerful as polynomially space-bounded Turing machines.
Some Afterthoughts on Hopfield Networks
1999
In the present paper we investigate four relatively independent issues, which complete our knowledge regarding the computational aspects of popular Hopfield nets. In Section 2 of the paper, the computational equivalence of convergent asymmetric and Hopfield nets is shown with respect to network size. In Section 3, the convergence time of Hopfield nets is analyzed in terms of bit representations. In Section 4, a polynomial time approximate algorithm for the minimum energy problem is shown. In Section 5, the Turing universality of analog Hopfield nets is studied. peerReviewed
Transition Function Complexity of Finite Automata
2019
State complexity of finite automata in some cases gives the same complexity value for automata which intuitively seem to have completely different complexities. In this paper we consider a new measure of descriptional complexity of finite automata -- BC-complexity. Comparison of it with the state complexity is carried out here as well as some interesting minimization properties are discussed. It is shown that minimization of the number of states can lead to a superpolynomial increase of BC-complexity.
FINITE AUTOMATA WITH ADVICE TAPES
2014
We define a model of advised computation by finite automata where the advice is provided on a separate tape. We consider several variants of the model where the advice is deterministic or randomized, the input tape head is allowed real-time, one-way, or two-way access, and the automaton is classical or quantum. We prove several separation results among these variants, demonstrate an infinite hierarchy of language classes recognized by automata with increasing advice lengths, and establish the relationships between this and the previously studied ways of providing advice to finite automata.
Finite Automata with Advice Tapes
2013
We define a model of advised computation by finite automata where the advice is provided on a separate tape. We consider several variants of the model where the advice is deterministic or randomized, the input tape head is allowed real-time, one-way, or two-way access, and the automaton is classical or quantum. We prove several separation results among these variants, and establish the relationships between this model and the previously studied ways of providing advice to finite automata.
Upper bounds on multiparty communication complexity of shifts
1996
We consider some communication complexity problems which arise when proving lower bounds on the complexity of Boolean functions. In particular, we prove an \(O(\frac{n}{{2\sqrt {\log n} }}\log ^{1/4} n)\)upper bound on 3-party communication complexity of shifts, an O(n e ) upper bound on the multiparty communication complexity of shifts for a polylogarithmic number of parties. These bounds are all significant improvements over ones recently considered “unexpected” by Pudlak [5].
Bounded Computational Capacity Equilibrium
2010
We study repeated games played by players with bounded computational power, where, in contrast to Abreu and Rubisntein (1988), the memory is costly. We prove a folk theorem: the limit set of equilibrium payoffs in mixed strategies, as the cost of memory goes to 0, includes the set of feasible and individually rational payoffs. This result stands in sharp contrast to Abreu and Rubisntein (1988), who proved that when memory is free, the set of equilibrium payoffs in repeated games played by players with bounded computational power is a strict subset of the set of feasible and individually rational payoffs. Our result emphasizes the role of memory cost and of mixing when players have bounded c…
