A decidable characterization of locally testable tree languagesArticle

Authors: Thomas Place ; Luc Segoufin

A regular tree language L is locally testable if membership of a tree in L depends only on the presence or absence of some fix set of neighborhoods in the tree. In this paper we show that it is decidable whether a regular tree language is locally testable. The decidability is shown for ranked trees and for unranked unordered trees.
