Regular Omega Language Learning Library

ROLL is a library of learning algorithms for ω-regular languages. It consists of all the learning algorithms for the complete class of ω-regular languages available in the literature, namely

  • the learning algorithms for FDFAs
    • the algorithm in [5] learns three canonical FDFAs using observation tables, which is based on results in [3],
    • the algorithm in [6] learns three canonical FDFAs using classification trees;
  • and the learning algorithms for Büchi automata
    • the algorithm in [4] learns a Büchi automaton by combining L* algorithm [1] and results in [2],
    • the algorithm in [6] learns the Büchi automata via learning three canonical FDFAs.
    • the algorithm in [10] learns the limit-deterministic Büchi automata via learning three canonical FDFAs.

Since 2023, it also added the support for the limit FDFAs proposed in [11] and the following:

  • the learning algorithms for limit FDFAs using observation tables or classification trees;
  • the learning algorithms for Büchi automata via learning limit FDFAs;
  • and the learning algorithms for transition-based deterministic Büchi automata for an unknown DBA language based on learning limit FDFAs [12];

The ROLL library is implemented in JAVA. Its DFA operations are delegated to the dk.brics.automaton package. We use RABIT tool to check the equivalence of two Büchi automata.
