Two-dimensional pattern matching against local and regular-like picture languages

TL;DR: It is proved that the pattern matching problems cannot be solved for the class of local picture languages in time linear in the input area unless the well known problem of triangle finding in a graph is solvable in quadratic time.

Shuffle on array languages generated by array grammars

TL;DR: This work examines the language theoretic results related to shuf- e on trajectories by making use of Siromoney array grammars such as ( R : R)AG, (R : CF ) AG, (CF : R).

Chapter 8 – GRAMMARS

TL;DR: This chapter introduces grammars that can be used to either generate or accept (“parse”) sets of strings or arrays, and defines a hierarchy of such Grammars, and establishes equivalences between certain classes of grammar and of acceptors.

A New Model of Array Grammar for generating Connected Patterns on an Image Neighborhood.

TL;DR: The model of array grammar capable of generating any kind of simple or complex pattern and derivation of connected pattern in an image neighborhood using the proposed grammar is proposed and discussed.

Undecidability of the emptiness problem for context-free picture languages☆

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that this Kolam grammar is quite powerful by proving undecidability of the emptiness problem, and consequences of this finding are analyzed and additional characteristics related to size of generated pictures are given.
