Abstract
We introduce a new algorithm that takes a Transition-based Emerson-Lei Automaton (TELA), that is, an $\omega$-automaton whose acceptance condition is an arbitrary Boolean formula on sets of transitions to be seen infinitely or finitely often, and converts it into a Transition-based Parity Automaton (TPA). To reduce the size of the output TPA, the algorithm combines and optimizes two procedures based on a latest appearance record principle, and introduces a partial degeneralization. Our motivation is to use this algorithm to improve our LTL synthesis tool, where producing deterministic parity automata is an intermediate step.
