Abstract

We are concerned with a unified algorithm for extending classes of languages identifiable in the limit from positive data. Let $ {\mathcal L} $ be a class of languages to be based on and let $ {\mathcal X} $ be a class of finite subsets of strings. The extended class of $ {\mathcal L} $, denoted by $ {\mathcal C}({\mathcal L}, {\mathcal X}) $, is defined by these ${\mathcal L} $ and $ {\mathcal X} $. Here we give a sufficient condition for $ {\mathcal C}({\mathcal L}, {\mathcal X}) $ to be identifiable in the limit from positive data and we present a unified identification algorithm for it. Furthermore, we show that some proper subclasses of $ {\mathcal C}({\mathcal L}, {\mathcal X}) $ are polynomial time identifiable in the limit from positive data in the sense of Yokomori.
