Nelma Moreira's Annual Report

Nelma Moreira's Annual Report

Year: 

2016

Brief description of the research activities: 

- With S. Broda, A. Machiavelo and R. Reis studied  and developed  new  conversion methods from regular expressions with intersection  to equivalent non-deterministic finite automata without epsilon-transitions and based on the notion of positions.
- With M. Ramos and J.C. B. Almeida development of a mechanical formalization of the pumpinng lemma for  context-free grammars within the interactive theorem prover Coq
- With S. Konstantinidis and R. Reis development of a randomized error control code generator using automata and transducers.- with C. Campeaneau and R. Reis continue the study of the distinguability operation  and dissimilarity on finite languages 

- With M. Ferreira and R. Reis  development of a graphical interface for automata manipulation; work in collaboration with the Vaucanson-R team  (J. Sakarovitch and S. Lombardy)
