Bottom-up tree series transducers (tst) over the semiring A are implemented with the help of bottom-up weighted tree automata (wta) over an extension of A. Therefore bottom-up D-w...
We formulate an algebra of binary temporal relations between events the number of occurrences of which is unknown, but which are known to recur in time. Ontologically, we view the...
