Treatment of Epsilon Moves in Subset Construction

The paper discusses the problem of determinising?nite-state automata containing large numbers of -moves.Experiments with?nite-state approximations of natural language grammars often give rise to very large automata with a very large number of -moves. The paper identi?es and compares a number of subset construction algorithms which treat -moves.Experiments have been performed which indicate that the algorithms differ con-siderably in practice,both with respect to the size of the resulting deterministic automaton, and with respect to practical ef?ciency.Furthermore,the experiments suggest that the av-erage number of -moves per state can be used to predict which algorithm is likely to be the fastest for a given input automaton.

1Introduction

1.1Finite-state Language Processing

An important problem in computational linguistics is posed by the fact that the grammars which are typically hypothesised by linguists are unattractive from the point of view of computation.For instance,the number of steps required to anal-yse a sentence of n words is n3for context-free grammars.For certain linguistically more attractive grammatical formalisms it can be shown that no upper-bound to the number of steps required to?nd an analysis can be given.The human lan-guage user,however,seems to process in linear time;humans understand longer sentences with no noticeable delay.This implies that neither context-free gram-mars nor more powerful grammatical formalisms are likely models for human lan-guage processing.An important issue therefore is how the linearity of processing by humans can be accounted for.

A potential solution to this problem concerns the possibility of approximating an underlying general and abstract grammar by techniques of a much simpler sort. The idea that a competence grammar might be approximated by?nite-state means goes back to early work by Chomsky(Chomsky,1963;Chomsky,1964).There are essentially three observations which motivate the view that the processing of nat-ural language is?nite-state:

1.humans have a?nite(small,limited,?xed)amount of memory available

for language processing

2.humans have problems with certain grammatical constructions,such as

center-embedding,which are impossible to describe by?nite-state means

(Miller and Chomsky,1963)

3.humans process natural language very ef?ciently(in linear time)

1.2Finite-state Approximation and -moves

In experimenting with?nite-state approximation techniques for context-free and more powerful grammatical formalisms(such as the techniques presented in Black (1989),Pereira and Wright(1991),Rood(1996),Pereira and Wright(1997),Evans (1997),Nederhof(1997),Nederhof(1998),Johnson(1998))we have found that the resulting automata often are extremely large.Moreover,the automata contain many -moves(jumps).And?nally,if such automata are determinised then the re-sulting automata are often smaller.It turns out that a straightforward implementa-tion of the subset construction determinisation algorithm performs badly for such inputs.In this paper we consider a number of variants of the subset-construction algorithm which differ in their treatment of -moves.

Although we have observed that?nite-state approximation techniques typi-cally yield automata with large amounts of -moves,this is obviously not a ne-cessity.Instead of trying to improve upon determinisation techniques for such au-tomata it might be more fruitful,perhaps,to try to improve these approximation techniques in such a way that more compact automata are produced.1However, because research into?nite-state approximation is still of an exploratory and ex-perimental nature,it can be argued that more robust determinisation algorithms do still have a role to play:it can be expected that approximation techniques are much easier to de?ne and implement if the resulting automaton is allowed to be non-deterministic and to contain -moves.

Note furthermore that even if our primary motivation is in?nite-state approx-imation,the problem of determinising?nite-state automata with -moves may be relevant in other areas of language research as well.

1.3Subset construction and -moves

The experiments were performed using the FSA Utilities.The FSA Utilities tool-box(van Noord,1997;van Noord,1999;Gerdemann and van Noord, 1999;van Noord and Gerdemann,1999)is a collection of tools to manipu-late regular expressions,?nite-state automata and?nite-state transducers.Ma-nipulations include determinisation,minimisation,composition,complementa-tion,intersection,Kleene closure,etc.Various visualisation tools are available to browse?nite-state automata.The tool-box is implemented in SICStus Pro-log,and is available free of charge under Gnu General Public License via anonymous ftp at ftp://ftp.let.rug.nl/pub/vannoord/Fsa/,and via the web at http://www.let.rug.nl/?vannoord/Fsa/.At the time of our initial experiments with?nite-state approximation,an old version of the tool-box was used,which ran into memory problems for some of these automata.For this reason,the sub-set construction algorithm has been re-implemented,paying special attention to the treatment of -moves.Three variants of the subset construction algorithm are identi?ed which differ in the way -moves are treated:

per graph The most obvious and straightforward approach is sequential in the fol-lowing sense.Firstly,an equivalent automaton without -moves is con-

structed for the input.In order to do this,the transitive closure of the graph

consisting of all -moves is computed.Secondly,the resulting automaton

is then treated by a subset construction algorithm for -free automata.Dif-

ferent variants of per graph can be identi?ed,depending on the implemen-

tation of the -removal step.

per state For each state which occurs in a subset produced during subset construc-

tion,compute the states which are reachable using -moves.The results of

this computation can be memorised,or computed for each state in a pre-processing step.This is the approach mentioned brie?y in Johnson and

Wood(1997).2

per subset For each subset Q of states which arises during subset construction, compute Q ?Q which extends Q with all states which are reachable from

any member of Q using -moves.Such an algorithm is described in Aho,

Sethi,and Ullman(1986).

The motivation for this paper is the experience that the?rst approach turns out to be impractical for automata with very large numbers of -moves.An integration of the subset construction algorithm with the computation of -reachable states performs much better in practice for such automata.

Section2presents a short statement of the problem(how to determinise a given?nite-state automaton),and a subset construction algorithm which solves this problem in the absence of -moves.Section3de?nes a number of subset con-struction algorithms which differ with respect to the treatment of -moves.Most aspects of the algorithms are not new and have been described elsewhere,and/or were incorporated in previous implementations;a comparison of the different al-gorithms had not been performed previously.We provide a comparison with re-spect to the size of the resulting deterministic automaton(in section3)and prac-tical ef?ciency(in section4).Section4provides experimental results both for ran-domly generated automata and for automata generated by approximation algo-rithms.Our implementations of the various algorithms are also compared with AT&T’s FSM utilities(Mohri,Pereira,and Riley,1998),to establish that the experi-mental differences we?nd between the algorithms are truly caused by differences in the algorithm(as opposed to accidental implementation details).

2Subset Construction

2.1Problem statement

Let a?nite-state machine M be speci?ed by a tuple(Q,Σ,δ,S,F)where Q is a ?nite set of states,Σis a?nite alphabet,δis a function from Q×(Σ∪{ })→2Q. Furthermore,S?Q is a set of start states and F?Q is a set of?nal states.3 Let -move be the relation{(q i,q j)|q j∈δ(q i, )}. -reachable is the re?exive and transitive closure of -move.Let -CLOSURE:2Q→2Q be a function which is de?ned as:

-CLOSURE(Q )={q|q ∈Q ,(q ,q)∈ -reachable} Furthermore,we write -CLOSURE?1(Q )for the set{q|q ∈Q ,(q,q )∈ -reachable}.

For any given?nite-state automaton M=(Q,Σ,δ,S,F)there is an equivalent deterministic automaton M =(2Q,Σ,δ ,{Q0},F ).F is the set of all states in2Q containing a?nal state of M,i.e.,the set of subsets{Q i∈2Q|q∈Q i,q∈F}.M has a single start state Q0which is the epsilon closure of the start states of M,i.e., Q0= -CLOSURE(S).Finally,

δ ({q1,q2,...,q i},a)= -CLOSURE(δ(q1,a)∪δ(q2,a)∪...∪δ(q i,a))

Subset-construction algorithm.

An algorithm which computes M for a given M will only need to take into account states in2Q which are reachable from the start state Q0.This is the reason that for many input automata the algorithm does not need to treat all subsets of states(but note that there are automata for which all subsets are relevant,and hence exponential behaviour cannot be avoided in general).

Consider the subset construction algorithm in?gure1.The algorithm main-tains a set of subsets States.Each subset can be either marked or unmarked(to in-dicate whether the subset has been treated by the algorithm);the set of unmarked subsets is sometimes referred to as the agenda.The algorithm takes such an un-marked subset T and computes all transitions leaving T.This computation is per-formed by the function instructions and is called instruction computation by Johnson and Wood(1997).

The function index

The procedure add is responsible for‘reachable-state-set maintenance’,by en-suring that target subsets are added to the set of subsets if these subsets were not encountered before.Moreover,if such a new subset contains a?nal state,then this subset is added to the set of?nal states.

3Variants for -Moves

The algorithm presented in the previous section does not treat -moves.In this section,possible extensions of the algorithm are identi?ed to treat -moves.

3.1Per graph

In the per graph variant two steps can be identi?ed.In the?rst step,efree,an equiv-alent -free automaton is constructed.In the second step this -free automaton is determinised using the subset construction algorithm.The advantage of this ap-proach is that the subset construction algorithm can remain simple because the input automaton is -free.

An algorithm for efree is described for instance in Hopcroft and Ullman (1979)[page26-27].The main ingredient of efree is the construction of the func-tion -CLOSURE,which can be computed by using a standard transitive closure algorithm for directed graphs:this algorithm is applied to the directed graph con-sisting of all -moves of M.Such an algorithm can be found in several textbooks (see,for instance,Cormen,Leiserson,and Rivest(1990)).

For a given?nite-state automaton M=(Q,Σ,δ,S,F)efree computes M = (Q,Σ,δ ,S ,F ),where S = -CLOSURE(S),F = -CLOSURE?1(F),and δ (p,a)={q|q ∈δ(p ,a),p ∈ -CLOSURE?1(p),q∈ -CLOSURE(q )}.Instead of using -CLOSURE on both the source and target side of a transition,efree can be optimised in two different ways by using -CLOSURE only on one side:?efree t:M =(Q,Σ,δ ,S ,F),where S = -CLOSURE(S),and

δ (p,a)={q|q ∈δ(p,a),q∈ -CLOSURE(q )}.

?efree s:M =(Q,Σ,δ ,S,F ),where F = -CLOSURE?1(F),and

δ (p,a)={q|q∈δ(p ,a),p ∈ -CLOSURE?1(p)}.

Although both variants appear very similar,there are some differences.Firstly, efree t might introduce states which are not co-accessible:states from which no path exists to a?nal state;in contrast,efree s might introduce states which are not acces-sible:states from which no path exists from the start state.A straightforward mod-i?cation of both algorithms is possible to ensure that these states are not present in the output.Thus efree t,c ensures that all states in the resulting automaton are co-accessible;efree s,a ensures that all states in the resulting automaton are accessi-ble.As a consequence,the size of the determinised machine is in general smaller if efree t,c is employed,because states which were not co-accessible(in the input) are removed(this is therefore an additional bene?t of efree t,c;the fact that efree s,a removes accessible states has no effect on the size of the determinised machine because the subset construction algorithm already ensures accessibility anyway).

Secondly,it turns out that applying efree t in combination with the subset-construction algorithm generally produces smaller automata than efree s(even if we ignore the bene?t of ensuring co-accessibility).An example is presented in?g-ure2.The differences can be quite signi?cant.This is illustrated in?gure3.

Below we will write per graph X to indicate the non-integrated algorithm based on efree X.

return

The motivation for the per state variant is the insight that in this case the closure algorithm is called at most|Q|times.In contrast,in the per subset approach the transitive closure algorithm may need to be called2|Q|times.On the other hand, in the per state approach some overhead must be accepted for computing the union of the results for each state.Moreover,in practice the number of subsets is often much smaller than2|Q|.In some cases,the number of reachable subsets is smaller than the number of states encountered in those subsets.

3.3Implementation

In order to implement the algorithms ef?ciently in Prolog,it is important to use ef-?cient data-structures.In particular,we use an implementation of(non-updatable) arrays based on the N+K trees of O’Keefe(1990,pp.142-145)with N=95and K=32. On top of this datastructure,a hash array is implemented using the SICStus library predicate term

tion time,and the maximum number of states,at an approximate

deterministic density of2.Most of the area under the curve occurs

within0.5and2.5deterministic density—this is the area in which

subset construction is expensive.

Conjecture.For a given NFA,we can compute the expected num-

bers of states and transitions in the corresponding DFA,produced

by subset construction,from the deterministic density of the NFA.

In addition,this functional relationship gives rise to a Poisson-like

curve with its peak approximately at a deterministic density of2.

A number of automata were generated randomly,according to the number of states,symbols,and transition density.For the?rst experiment,automata were generated consisting of15symbols,25states,and various densities(and no -moves).The results are summarised in?gure5.CPU-time was measured on a HP 9000/785machine running HP-UX10.20.Note that our timings do not include the start-up of the Prolog engine,nor the time required for garbage collection.

In order to establish that the differences we obtain later are genuinely due to differences in the underlying algorithm,and not due to‘accidental’implemen-tation details,we have compared our implementation with the determiniser of AT&T’s FSM utilities(Mohri,Pereira,and Riley,1998).For automata without -moves we establish that FSM normally is faster:for automata with very small tran-sition densities FSM is up to four times as fast,for automata with larger densities the results are similar.

A new concept called absolute jump density is introduced to specify the num-ber of -moves.It is de?ned as the number of -moves divided by the square of the number of states(i.e.,the probability that an -move exists for a given pair of states).Furthermore,deterministic jump density is the number of -moves divided by the number of states(i.e.,the average number of -moves which leave a given state).In order to measure the differences between the three implementations,a number of automata has been generated consisting of15states and15symbols, using various transition densities between0.01and0.3(for larger densities the automata tend to collapse to an automaton forΣ?).For each of these transition densities,deterministic jump densities were chosen in the range0to2.5(again,for larger values the automata tend to collapse).In?gures6to9the outcomes of these experiments are summarised by listing the average amount of CPU-time required per deterministic jump density(for each of the algorithms),using automata with 15,20,25and100states respectively.Thus,every dot represents the average for de-terminising a number of different input automata with various absolute transition densities and the same deterministic jump density.

The striking aspect of these experiments is that the integrated per subset and per state variants are much more ef?cient for larger deterministic jump density.The per graph t is typically the fastest algorithm of the non-integrated versions.However, in these experiments all states in the input are co-accessible by construction;and moreover,all states in the input are?nal states.Therefore,the advantages of the per graph t,c algorithm could not be observed here.

The turning point is around a deterministic jump density of around0.8:for smaller densities the per graph t is typically slightly faster;for larger densities the per state algorithm is much faster.For densities beyond1.5,the per subset algorithm tends to perform better than the per state algorithm.Interestingly,this generalisa-tion is supported by the experiments on automata which were generated by ap-proximation techniques(although the results for randomly generated automata are more consistent than the results for‘real’examples).

Comparison with the FSM library We also provide the results for AT&T’s FSM li-brary again.FSM is designed to treat weighted automata for very general weight sets.The initial implementation of the library consisted of an on-the-?y computa-tion of the epsilon-closures combined with determinisation.This was abandoned for two reasons:it could not be generalised to the case of general weight sets,and it was not outputting the intermediate epsilon-removed machine(which might be of interest in itself).In the current version -moves must be removed before deter-minisation is possible.This mechanism thus is comparable to our per graph variant. Apparently,FSM employs an algorithm equivalent to our per graph s,a.The result-ing determinised machines are generally larger than the machines produced by our integrated variants and the variants which incorporate -moves on the target side of transitions.The timings below are obtained for the pipe

fsmrmepsilon|fsmdeterminize

This is somewhat unfair since this includes the time to write and read the interme-diate machine.Even so,it is interesting to note that the FSM library is a constant factor faster than our per graph s,a;for larger numbers of jumps the per state and per subset variants consistently beat the FSM library.

Experiment:Automata generated by approximation algorithms The automata used in the previous experiments were randomly generated.However,it may well be that in practice the automata that are to be treated by the algorithm have typical proper-ties which were not re?ected in this test data.For this reason results are presented for a number of automata that were generated using approximation techniques for context-free grammars.In particular,automata have been used which were cre-ated by Nederhof,using the technique described in Nederhof(1997).In addition,a small number of automata have been used which were created using the technique of Pereira and Wright(1997)(as implemented by Nederhof).We have restricted our attention to automata with at least1000states in the input.

The automata typically contain lots of jumps.Moreover,the number of states of the resulting automaton is often smaller than the number of states in the input au-tomaton.Results are given in the tables1and2.One of the most striking examples is the ygrim automaton consisting of3382states and9124jumps.For this example, the per graph implementations ran out of memory(after a long time),whereas the implementation of the per subset algorithm produced the determinised automaton (containing only9states)within a single CPU-second.The FSM implementation took much longer for this example(whereas for many of the other examples it is faster than our implementations).Note that this example has the highest number of jumps per number of states ratio.This con?rms the observation that the per sub-set algorithm performs better on inputs with a high deterministic jump density.

5Conclusion

We have discussed a number of variants of the subset-construction algorithm for determinising?nite automata containing -moves.The experiments support the following conclusions:

?The integrated variants per subset and per state work much better for

automata containing a large number of -moves.The per subset variant

tends to improve upon the per state algorithm if the number of -moves

increases even further.

?We have identi?ed four different variants of the per graph algorithm.In

our experiments,the per graph t is the algorithm of choice for automata

because it produces smaller automata than the per graph s and per graph s,a

variants.

?The per graph t,c variant is an interesting alternative in that it produces the

smallest results.This variant should be used if the input automaton is

expected to contain many non-co-accessible states.

?Automata produced by?nite-state approximation techniques tend to

contain many -moves.We found that for these automata the differences

in speed between the various algorithms can be enormous.The per subset

and per state algorithms are good candidates for this application.

We have attempted to characterize the expected ef?ciency of the various al-gorithms in terms of the number of jumps and the number of states in the input automaton.It is quite conceivable that other simple properties of the input automa-ton can be used even more effectively for this purpose.One reviewer suggests to use the number of strongly -connected components(the strongly connected com-ponents of the graph of all -moves)for this purpose.We leave this and other pos-sibilities to a future occasion.

“the way+从句”结构的意义及用法

“theway+从句”结构的意义及用法 首先让我们来看下面这个句子: Read the followingpassageand talkabout it wi th your classmates.Try totell whatyou think of Tom and ofthe way the childrentreated him. 在这个句子中,the way是先行词,后面是省略了关系副词that或in which的定语从句。 下面我们将叙述“the way+从句”结构的用法。 1.the way之后,引导定语从句的关系词是that而不是how,因此,<<现代英语惯用法词典>>中所给出的下面两个句子是错误的:This is thewayhowithappened. This is the way how he always treats me. 2.在正式语体中,that可被in which所代替;在非正式语体中,that则往往省略。由此我们得到theway后接定语从句时的三种模式:1) the way+that-从句2)the way +in which-从句3) the way +从句 例如:The way(in which ,that) thesecomrade slookatproblems is wrong.这些同志看问题的方法

不对。 Theway(that ,in which)you’re doingit is comple tely crazy.你这么个干法,简直发疯。 Weadmired him for theway inwhich he facesdifficulties. Wallace and Darwingreed on the way inwhi ch different forms of life had begun.华莱士和达尔文对不同类型的生物是如何起源的持相同的观点。 This is the way(that) hedid it. I likedthe way(that) sheorganized the meeting. 3.theway(that)有时可以与how(作“如何”解)通用。例如: That’s the way(that) shespoke. = That’s how shespoke.

A、in a way B、on the way C、by the way D、in the way 此题答案选A。要想弄清为什么选A,而不选其他几项,则要弄清选项中含way的四个短语的不同意义和用法,下面我们就对此作一归纳和小结。 一、in a way的用法 表示:在一定程度上,从某方面说。如: In a way he was right.在某种程度上他是对的。注:in a way也可说成in one way。 二、on the way的用法 1、表示:即将来(去),就要来(去)。如: Spring is on the way.春天快到了。 I'd better be on my way soon.我最好还是快点儿走。 Radio forecasts said a sixth-grade wind was on the way.无线电预报说将有六级大风。 2、表示:在路上,在行进中。如: He stopped for breakfast on the way.他中途停下吃早点。 We had some good laughs on the way.我们在路上好好笑了一阵子。 3、表示:(婴儿)尚未出生。如: She has two children with another one on the way.她有两个孩子,现在还怀着一个。 She's got five children,and another one is on the way.她已经有5个孩子了,另一个又快生了。 三、by the way的用法

The way的用法及其含义(一)

The way的用法及其含义(一) 有这样一个句子:In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted. 1770年,这间琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。 the way在句中的语法作用是什么?其意义如何?在阅读时,学生经常会碰到一些含有the way 的句子,如:No one knows the way he invented the machine. He did not do the experiment the way his teacher told him.等等。他们对the way 的用法和含义比较模糊。在这几个句子中,the way之后的部分都是定语从句。第一句的意思是,“没人知道他是怎样发明这台机器的。”the way的意思相当于how;第二句的意思是,“他没有按照老师说的那样做实验。”the way 的意思相当于as。在In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted.这句话中,the way也是as的含义。随着现代英语的发展,the way的用法已越来越普遍了。下面,我们从the way的语法作用和意义等方面做一考查和分析: 一、the way作先行词,后接定语从句 以下3种表达都是正确的。例如:“我喜欢她笑的样子。” 1. the way+ in which +从句 I like the way in which she smiles. 2. the way+ that +从句 I like the way that she smiles. 3. the way + 从句(省略了in which或that) I like the way she smiles. 又如:“火灾如何发生的,有好几种说法。” 1. There were several theories about the way in which the fire started. 2. There were several theories about the way that the fire started.
