Weights to lttoolbox

Theory

Weighted transducers are automata in which each transition in addition to its usual input label is augmented with an output label from a possible new alphabet, and carries some weight element of a semiring.

For weight in lttoolbox which currently supports DFA system, we need Semi-ring for calculating weight.

A Semiring is defined by two binary operations and and two designated elements 0 and 1 with following properties:-

  • shows associative, commutative and has 0 as its own identity.
  • shows associative and has 1 as its own identity.

A left semiring distributes on the left and also a right semiring is similarly defined.

Store weights in lttoolbox

  • A Weight class must have binary functions Plus and Times these must form a left or right semiring.

Also in class Weight, there are some additions which must be defined like the following:-

  • >> :- This reads textual representation of a weight.
  • << :- This prints textual representation of a weight.
  • LeftSemiring :- This indicates how weights form a left semi-ring.
  • RightSemiring :- This indicates how weights form a right semi-ring.
  • Read(istream &) :- This reads binary representation of a weight.
  • Write(ostream &) :- This writes binary representation of a weight.
  • NoWeight :- This is a static member function that returns an element which is not a set member and used to signal an error.
