Learning local substitutable context-free languages from positive examples in polynomial time and data by reduction

摘要

To study more formally the approach by reduction initiated by ReGLiS, we propose a formal characterization of the grammars in reduced normal form (RNF) which can be learned by this approach. A modification of the core of ReGLiS is then proposed to ensure returning RNF grammars in polynomial time. This enables us to show that local substitutable languages represented by RNF context-free grammars are identifiable in polynomial time and thick data (IPTtD) from positive examples.
