Based on regular expression derivation with character classes, generalized to predicates, this allows to have a generic direct DFA construction algorithm for any regular language. This allows to share implementation between several query languages (XPath and JsonPath might also be rewritten to use this representation instead of computing the NFA first).

Implementation is based on the paper Regular-expression derivatives reexamined
