We focus on the estimation of a probability distribution over a set of trees. We consider here the class of distributions computed by weighted automata - a strict generalization of...
All major semantics of normal logic programs and normal logic programs with aggregates can be described as fixpoints of the one-step provability operator or of operators that can...
Abstract. We provide a complete system of transformation rules for semantic unification with respect to theories defined by convergent rewrite systems. We show that this standard u...
While existing learning techniques can be viewed as inducing programs from examples, most research has focused on rather narrow classes of programs, e.g., decision trees or logic ...
of natural language syntax often characterize grammatical knowledge as a form of abstract computation. This paper argues that such a characterization is correct, and that fundamen...
