Research Type Theoretical Our main contribution is an equivalence relation on words characterizing Lim Avg-automata, i.e., the equivalence classes of this relation correspond to states of an equivalent Lim Avg-automaton. ... We show two applications of this relation. First, we present a minimization algorithm for Lim Avgautomata, which returns a minimal Lim Avgautomaton among those equivalent and structurally similar to the input one. Second, we present an extension of Angluin s L -algorithm with syntactic queries, which learns in polynomial time a Lim Avg-automaton equivalent to the target one. ... For every LIMAVG-automaton T, there exists a consistent ω-automaton B, which is (a) unique, and (b) there exists labeling wt of transitions of B with rational numbers such that the resulting LIMAVG-automaton (B, wt) is equivalent to T. Such a labeling wt can be computed in polynomial time in |T|. ... Theorem 9. Active learning deterministic LIMAVGautomata with teacher answering LV-value queries and LV-equivalence queries can be done in time polynomial in the size of the target automaton and the size of teachers responses.
