摘要

Weighted automata (WA) extend finite-state automata by associating with transitions weights from a semiring S, defining functions from words to S. Recently, cost register automata (CRA) have been introduced as an alternative model to describe any function realised by a WA by means of a deterministic machine. Unambiguous WA over a monoid (M,?) can equivalently be described by cost register automata whose registers take their values in M, and are updated by operations of the form x :=y?c, with c ? M. This class is denoted by CRA?cM. We introduce a twinning property and a bounded variation property parametrised by an integer k, such that the corresponding notions introduced originally by Choffrut for finite-state transducers are obtained for k=1. Given an unambiguous weighted automaton W over an infinitary group (G,?) realizing some function f, we prove that the three following properties are equivalent: i) W satisfies the twinning property of order k, ii) f satisfies the k-bounded variation property, and iii) f can be described by a CRA?c(G) with at most k registers.In the spirit of tranducers, we actually prove this result in a more general setting by considering machines over the semiring of finite sets of elements from (G,?) : the three properties are still equivalent for such finite-valued weighted automata, that is the ones associating with words subsets of G of cardinality at most ?, for some natural ?. Moreover, we show that if the operation ? of G is commutative and computable, then one can decide whether a WA satisfies the twinning property of order k. As a corollary, this allows to decide the register minimisation problem for the class CRA?c(G). Last, we prove that a similar result holds for finite-valued finite-state transducers, and that the register minimisation problem for the class CRA.c(B*) is PSPACE-complete.
