Learning of Structurally Unambiguous Probabilistic Grammars
The problem of identifying a probabilistic context free grammar has two aspects: the first is determining the grammar's topology (the rules of the grammar) and the second is estimating probabilistic weights for each rule. Given the hardness results for learning context-free grammars in general, and probabilistic grammars in particular, most of the literature has concentrated on the second problem. In this work we address the first problem. We restrict attention to structurally unambiguous weighted context-free grammars (SUWCFG) and provide a query learning algorithm for \structurally unambiguous probabilistic context-free grammars (SUPCFG). We show that SUWCFG can be represented using \emph{co-linear multiplicity tree automata} (CMTA), and provide a polynomial learning algorithm that learns CMTAs. We show that the learned CMTA can be converted into a probabilistic grammar, thus providing a complete algorithm for learning a structurally unambiguous probabilistic context free grammar (both the grammar topology and the probabilistic weights) using structured membership queries and structured equivalence queries. A summarized version of this work was published at AAAI 21.

Marginal Inference queries in Hidden Markov Models under context-free grammar constraints
The primary use of any probabilistic model involving a set of random variables is to run inference and sampling queries on it. Inference queries in classical probabilistic models is concerned by the computation of margin…
Probabilistic Grammars for Equation Discovery
Equation discovery, also known as symbolic regression, is a type of automated modeling that discovers scientific laws, expressed in the form of equations, from observed data and expert knowledge. Deterministic grammars, …

Empirical Risk Minimization with Approximations of Probabilistic Grammars
Probabilistic grammars are generative statistical models that are useful for compositional and sequential structures. We present a framework, reminiscent of structural risk minimization, for empirical risk minimization …
