Abstract:
Abstract. Linearity and determinism seem to be two essential conditions for polynomial language learning to be possible. We compare several definitions of deterministic linear grammars, and for a reasonable definition prove the existence of a canonical normal form. This enables us to obtain positive learning results in case of polynomial learning from a given set of both positive and negative examples. The resulting class is the largest one for which this type of results has been obtained so far. 1
