[Question] Runtime estimation or cutoff #1

Open stheid opened 3 years ago

stheid commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I hope its ok if i ask a technical question here:

In our project we are trying to use the learned grammar, hence we have not yet worked a lot with the theory on grammar learning, but we where wondering what influences the runtime of the grammar learning. As an experiment i started with learning the grammar of png files. I assume thats a little more challenging than xml but i wonder it there are ways to cutoff the grammar inference and have a look at the intermediate model. Also i am wondering if we are talking about trainingtime of weeks or hours. in this case.

Currently i have let it train for 16h and it still says "learning grammar"

Best, Stefan

To be a little more precise: As we are also working in a fuzzing scenario we are not so much interested in a very precise model, however we need to train models for various domains.

trainingtime of weeks or hours

Did it finish? If so, how long did it take?

No, we killed it and never really achieved to train it. i think the tool was not suitable for our case
