General presentation of the field |
Many properties and characteristics of an automaton can be easily computed from its syntactic monoids. Such properties are of particular importance to theoreticians. Vcsn is a project led by Alexandre Duret-Lutz and Akim Demaille (LRDE). It is a platform for the manipulation of automata, transducers and weighted rational expressions. It is written in C++11 avoiding the classical object-oriented programming in favor of generic programming (template) for more performance. Vcsn is an heir of the Vaucanson 2 project which was developed in partnership with Jacques Sakarovitch (Telecom ParisTech) and Sylvain Lombardy (LaBRI). Vcsn has a sound base of data structure and algorithms for automata and rational expressions. However, it offers no support for syntactic monoids at all. |

Objectives |
The objective of this internship is develop support for syntactic monoids in Vcsn, and to implement recent research results in Automata Theory that use the syntactic monoid. |
