Outline

In this paper, we propose a new framework for learning deterministic finite automata (DFA) from unlabeled data to overcome the limitations of automata learning methods that rely on conventional supervised learning environments. We prove the computational complexity of the problem of learning DFA from multiple sets of unlabeled words, and develop three learning algorithms based on constraint optimization. In addition, we propose a new regularization technique to improve the interpretability of DFA, and demonstrate its practicality in the field of unsupervised anomaly detection through a prototype implementation.
