The paper presents an efficient framework for synthesizing Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) formulas over finite traces, leveraging deterministic automata construction. The proposed method converts LTLf into Transition-based DFA (TDFA) to enable parallelized synthesis, which addresses the inefficiency of existing approaches. This is achieved by developing an algorithm that traverses the state space using a global forward and local backward method, detecting strongly connected components. Two optimization techniques, model-guided synthesis and state entailment, are introduced to enhance practical efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate superior performance on tested benchmarks.

This paper makes it possible to quickly create formulas for understanding and predicting things that happen over time. It’s like a recipe for building a special kind of machine that can recognize patterns in data. The usual way of doing this is very slow because it involves creating a huge machine first, which takes a lot of effort. This new approach lets you build the machine piece by piece as you go along, making it much faster and more practical.
