Grammars and Automata for String Processing

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2004-11-23

  • Publisher: CRC Press

The conventional wisdom was that biology influenced mathematics and computer science. But a new approach has taken hold: that of transferring methods and tools from computer science to biology. The reverse trend is evident in Grammars and Automata for String Processing: From Mathematics and Computer Science to Biology and Back. The contributors address the structural (syntactical) view of the domain. Mathematical linguistics and computer science can offer various tools for modeling complex macromolecules and for analyzing and simulating biological issues. This collection is valuable for students and researchers in biology, computer science, and applied mathematics.

  • Publisher: Springer

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Descriptional Complexity of Formal Systems, DCFS 2017, held in Milano, Italy, in July 2017. The 20 full papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions.Descriptional Complexity is a field in Computer Science that deals with the size of all kinds of objects that occur in computational models, such as turing machines, finite automata, grammars, splicing systems and others. The topics of this conference are related to all aspects of descriptional complexity.

Where Mathematics, Computer Science, Linguistics and Biology Meet

In the last years, it was observed an increasing interest of computer scientists in the structure of biological molecules and the way how they can be manipulated in vitro in order to define theoretical models of computation based on genetic engineering tools. Along the same lines, a parallel interest is growing regarding the process of evolution of living organisms. Much of the current data for genomes are expressed in the form of maps which are now becoming available and permit the study of the evolution of organisms at the scale of genome for the first time. On the other hand, there is an active trend nowadays throughout the field of computational biology toward abstracted, hierarchical views of biological sequences, which is very much in the spirit of computational linguistics. In the last decades, results and methods in the field of formal language theory that might be applied to the description of biological sequences were pointed out.

Language and Automata Theory and Applications

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Language and Automata Theory and Applications, LATA 2011, held in Tarragona, Spain in May 2011. The 36 revised full papers presented together with four invited articles were carefully selected from 91 submissions. Among the topics covered are algebraic language theory, automata and logic, systems analysis, systems verifications, computational complexity, decidability, unification, graph transformations, language-based cryptography, and applications in data mining, computational learning, and pattern recognition.

Fundamental Concepts In Computer Science

This book presents fundamental contributions to computer science as written and recounted by those who made the contributions themselves. As such, it is a highly original approach to a “living history” of the field of computer science. The scope of the book is broad in that it covers all aspects of computer science, going from the theory of computation, the theory of programming, and the theory of computer system performance, all the way to computer hardware and to major numerical applications of computers./a

Descriptional Complexity of Formal Systems

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Workshop of Descriptional Complexity of Formal Systems 2011, held in Limburg, Germany, in July 2011. The 21 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The topics covered are automata, grammars, languages and related systems, various measures and modes of operations (e.g., determinism and nondeterminism); trade-offs between computational models and/or operations; succinctness of description of (finite) objects; state explosion-like phenomena; circuit complexity of Boolean functions and related measures; resource-bounded or structure-bounded environments; frontiers between decidability and undecidability; universality and reversibility; structural complexity; formal systems for applications (e.g., software reliability, software and hardware testing, modeling of natural languages); nature-motivated (bio-inspired) architectures and unconventional models of computing; Kolmogorov complexity.

Words, Semigroups, And Transductions: Festschrift In Honor Of Gabriel Thierrin

This is an excellent collection of papers dealing with combinatorics on words, codes, semigroups, automata, languages, molecular computing, transducers, logics, etc., related to the impressive work of Gabriel Thierrin. This volume is in honor of Professor Thierrin on the occasion of his 80th birthday.

Handbook of Formal Languages

The need for a comprehensive survey-type exposition on formal languages and related mainstream areas of computer science has been evident for some years. In the early 1970s, when the book Formal Languages by the second mentioned editor appeared, it was still quite feasible to write a comprehensive book with that title and include also topics of current research interest. This would not be possible anymore. A standard-sized book on formal languages would either have to stay on a fairly low level or else be specialized and restricted to some narrow sector of the field. The setup becomes drastically different in a collection of contributions, where the best authorities in the world join forces,...

Mathematical and Computational Analysis of Natural Language

In the last decade, computational linguistics has produced a revival of the interest in the mathematical study of the various levels of human language. This volume contains a selection of recent research papers approaching mathematical and computational topics in natural languages, with a special attention being paid to syntax and semantics. According with their main focus, the papers are distributed into four parts: Syntax, Semantics, Natural language processing and Varia, which cover a vast range of problems. The book may be of interest to all those who intend to know which kind of mathematics is used when giving account of natural language, as well as to people working on computational issues involving human-machine interaction.

Biocomputing '97 - Proceedings Of The Pacific Symposium

The Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB) is an international, multidisciplinary conference for the presentation and discussion of current research in the theory and application of computational methods in problems of biological significance. Papers and presentations are rigorously peer-reviewed and are published in an archival volume that will prove to be a valuable reference for all biochemists and computer scientists.PSB-97 will focus on rapidly advancing areas of research in the field.
