Passive Learning of Deterministic Büchi Automata by Combinations of DFAs

Authors: León Bohn and Christof Löding

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)

Abstract
We present an algorithm that constructs a deterministic Büchi automaton in polynomial time from given sets of positive and negative example words. This learner constructs multiple DFAs using a polynomial-time active learning algorithm on finite words as black box using an oracle that we implement based on the given sample of ω-words, and combines these DFAs into a single DBA. We prove that the resulting algorithm can learn a DBA for each DBA-recognizable language in the limit by providing a characteristic sample for each DBA-recognizable language. We can only guarantee completeness of our algorithm for the full class of DBAs through characteristic samples that are, in general, exponential in the size of a minimal DBA for the target language. But we show that for each fixed k these characteristic samples are of polynomial size for the class of DBAs in which each subset of pairwise language-equivalent states has size at most k.

Constructing Deterministic ω-Automata from Examples by an Extension of the RPNI Algorithm

Authors: León Bohn and Christof Löding

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 202, 46th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2021)

Abstract
The RPNI algorithm (Oncina, Garcia 1992) constructs deterministic finite automata from finite sets of negative and positive example words. We propose and analyze an extension of this algorithm to deterministic ω-automata with different types of acceptance conditions. In order to obtain this generalization of RPNI, we develop algorithms for the standard acceptance conditions of ω-automata that check for a given set of example words and a deterministic transition system, whether these example words can be accepted in the transition system with a corresponding acceptance condition. Based on these algorithms, we can define the extension of RPNI to infinite words. We prove that it can learn all deterministic ω-automata with an informative right congruence in the limit with polynomial time and data. We also show that the algorithm, while it can learn some automata that do not have an informative right congruence, cannot learn deterministic ω-automata for all regular ω-languages in the limit. Finally, we also prove that active learning with membership and equivalence queries is not easier for automata with an informative right congruence than for general deterministic ω-automata.
