An XML format proposal for the description of weighted automata, transducers, and regular expressions. In the proceedings of the
Seventh International Workshop on Finite-State Methods and Natural Language Processing (FSMNLP'08) Ispra, Italia September 2008
We present an XML format that allows to describe a large
class of finite weighted automata and transducers. Our
design choices stem from our policy of making the
implementation as simple as possible. This format has been
tested for the communication between the modules of our
automata manipulation platform Vaucanson, but this document
is less an experiment report than a position paper intended
to open the discussion among the community of automata
software writers.
