// Computes the composition of two transducers. This version is a
// delayed Fst. If FST1 transduces string x to y with weight a and FST2
// transduces y to z with weight b, then their composition transduces
// string x to z with weight Times(x, z).
//
// The output labels of the first transducer or the input labels of
// the second transducer must be sorted (with the default matcher).
// The weights need to form a commutative semiring (valid for
// TropicalWeight and LogWeight).
//
// Complexity:
// Assuming the first FST is unsorted and the second is sorted:
// - Time: O(v1 v2 d1 (log d2 + m2)),
// - Space: O(v1 v2)
// where vi = # of states visited, di = maximum out-degree, and mi the
// maximum multiplicity of the states visited for the ith
// FST. Constant time and space to visit an input state or arc is
// assumed and exclusive of caching.
//
// Caveats:
// - ComposeFst does not trim its output (since it is a delayed operation).
// - The efficiency of composition can be strongly affected by several factors:
//   - the choice of which tnansducer is sorted - prefer sorting the FST
//     that has the greater average out-degree.
//   - the amount of non-determinism
//   - the presence and location of epsilon transitions - avoid epsilon
//     transitions on the output side of the first transducer or
//     the input side of the second transducer or prefer placing
//     them later in a path since they delay matching and can
//     introduce non-coaccessible states and transitions.
//
// This class attaches interface to implementation and handles
// reference counting, delegating most methods to ImplToFst.

// Computes the composition of two transducers. This version writes
// the composed FST into a MurableFst. If FST1 transduces string x to
// y with weight a and FST2 transduces y to z with weight b, then
// their composition transduces string x to z with weight
// Times(x, z).
//
// The output labels of the first transducer or the input labels of
// the second transducer must be sorted.  The weights need to form a
// commutative semiring (valid for TropicalWeight and LogWeight).
//
// Complexity:
// Assuming the first FST is unsorted and the second is sorted:
// - Time: O(V1 V2 D1 (log D2 + M2)),
// - Space: O(V1 V2 D1 M2)
// where Vi = # of states, Di = maximum out-degree, and Mi is
// the maximum multiplicity for the ith FST.
//
// Caveats:
// - Compose trims its output.
// - The efficiency of composition can be strongly affected by several factors:
//   - the choice of which tnansducer is sorted - prefer sorting the FST
//     that has the greater average out-degree.
//   - the amount of non-determinism
//   - the presence and location of epsilon transitions - avoid epsilon
//     transitions on the output side of the first transducer or
//     the input side of the second transducer or prefer placing
//     them later in a path since they delay matching and can
//     introduce non-coaccessible states and transitions.
