#+TITLE: =randaut=
#+DESCRIPTION: Spot command-line tool for generating random ω-automata.
#+SETUPFILE: setup.org
#+HTML_LINK_UP: tools.html
The =randaut= tool generates random (connected) automata.
By default, it will generate a random automaton with 10 states, no
acceptance sets, and using a set of atomic propositions you have to
supply.

As for [[file:randltl.org][=randltl=]], you can supply a number of atomic propositions
instead of giving a list of atomic propositions.
* States and density
The numbers of states can be controlled using the =-Q= option. This
option will accept a range as argument, so for instance =-Q3..6= will
generate an automaton with 3 to 6 states.
The number of edges can be controlled using the =-e= (or
=--density=) option. The argument should be a number between 0 and 1.
In an automaton with $Q$ states and density $e$, the degree of each
state will follow a normal distribution with mean $1+(Q-1)d$ and
variance $(Q-1)e(1-e)$.
In particular =-e0= will cause all states to have 1 successors, and
=-e1= will cause all states to be interconnected.

* Acceptance condition
The generation of the acceptance sets abn is controlled with the following four parameters:
- =-A ACCEPTANCE= (or =--acceptance=ACCEPTANCE=) controls both the acceptance condition,
and the number of associated acceptance sets. The =ACCEPTANCE= argument is documented
in =--help= as follows:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :results verbatim :exports results
randaut --help | sed -n '/^ \(ACCEPTANCE\|RANGE\)/,/^$/p'
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
#+begin_example
RANGE may have one of the following forms: 'INT', 'INT..INT', or '..INT'.
In the latter case, the missing number is assumed to be 1.
ACCEPTANCE may be either a RANGE (in which case generalized Büchi is
assumed), or an arbitrary acceptance formula such as 'Fin(0)|Inf(1)&Fin(2)' in
the same syntax as in the HOA format, or one of the following patterns:
none
all
Buchi
co-Buchi
generalized-Buchi RANGE
generalized-co-Buchi RANGE
Rabin RANGE
Streett RANGE
generalized-Rabin INT RANGE RANGE ... RANGE
parity (min|max|rand) (odd|even|rand) RANGE
random RANGE
random RANGE PROBABILITY
The random acceptance condition uses each set only once, unless a probability
(to reuse the set again every time it is used) is given.
#+end_example
When a range of the form $i..j$ is used, the actual value is taken as randomly
between $i$ and $j$ (included).
- =-a= (or =--acc-probability=) controls the probability that any
transition belong to a given acceptance set.
- =-S= (or =--state-based-acceptance=) requests that the automaton
use state-based acceptance. In this case, =-a= is the probability
that a /state/ belong to the acceptance set. (Because Spot only
deals with transition-based acceptance internally, this options
force all transitions leaving a state to belong to the same
acceptance sets. But if the output format allows state-based
acceptance, it will be used.)
- =--colored= requests that each transition (of state if combined with =-S=)
in the generated automaton should belong to exactly one set (in that
case =-a= is ignored, and =-A= must be used to specify an acceptance
condition with at least one set).
In addition, =-B= (or =--ba=) is a shorthand for =-A1 -S=,
ans =-s= (or =--spin=) implies =-B=.

For generating random parity automata you should use the option
=--colored= to make sure each transition (or state in the following
example) belong to exactly one acceptance set. Note that you can
specify a precise parity acceptance such as =parity min even 3=, or
give =randaut= some freedom, as in this example.

* Determinism
The output can only contain a single edge between two given states.
By default, the label of this edge is a random assignment of all
atomic propositions. Two edges leaving the same state may therefore
have the same label.
If the =-D= (or =--deterministic=) option is supplied, the labels
are generated differently: once the degree $m$ of a state has been
decided, the algorithm will compute a set of $m$ disjoint
Boolean formulas over the given atomic propositions, such that the
sum of all these formulas is $\top$. The resulting automaton is
therefore deterministic and complete.

Note that in a deterministic automaton with $a$ atomic propositions,
it is not possible to have states with more than $2^a$ successors. If
the combination of =-e= and =-Q= allows the situation where a state
can have more than $2^a$ successors, the degree will be clipped to
$2^a$. When working with random deterministic automata over $a$
atomic propositions, we suggest you always request more than $2^a$
states.
* Output formats
The output format can be controlled using [[file:oaut.org][the common output options]]
like =--hoaf=, =--dot==, =--lbtt=, and =--spin=. Note that =--spin=
automatically implies =--ba=.
* Generating a stream of automata
Use option =-n= to specify a number of automata to build. A negative
value will cause an infinite number of automata to be produced. This
generation of multiple automata is useful when piped to another tool
that can process automata in batches.
