YES

We show the termination of the TRS R:

  half(|0|()) -> |0|()
  half(s(|0|())) -> |0|()
  half(s(s(x))) -> s(half(x))
  bits(|0|()) -> |0|()
  bits(s(x)) -> s(bits(half(s(x))))

-- SCC decomposition.

Consider the dependency pair problem (P, R), where P consists of

p1: half#(s(s(x))) -> half#(x)
p2: bits#(s(x)) -> bits#(half(s(x)))
p3: bits#(s(x)) -> half#(s(x))

and R consists of:

r1: half(|0|()) -> |0|()
r2: half(s(|0|())) -> |0|()
r3: half(s(s(x))) -> s(half(x))
r4: bits(|0|()) -> |0|()
r5: bits(s(x)) -> s(bits(half(s(x))))

The estimated dependency graph contains the following SCCs:

  {p2}
  {p1}


-- Reduction pair.

Consider the dependency pair problem (P, R), where P consists of

p1: bits#(s(x)) -> bits#(half(s(x)))

and R consists of:

r1: half(|0|()) -> |0|()
r2: half(s(|0|())) -> |0|()
r3: half(s(s(x))) -> s(half(x))
r4: bits(|0|()) -> |0|()
r5: bits(s(x)) -> s(bits(half(s(x))))

The set of usable rules consists of

  r1, r2, r3

Take the reduction pair:

  lexicographic combination of reduction pairs:
  
    1. lexicographic path order with precedence:
    
      precedence:
      
        |0| > half > bits# > s
      
      argument filter:
    
        pi(bits#) = [1]
        pi(s) = [1]
        pi(half) = 1
        pi(|0|) = []
    
    2. matrix interpretations:
    
      carrier: N^1
      order: standard order
      interpretations:
        bits#_A(x1) = x1
        s_A(x1) = 3
        half_A(x1) = 2
        |0|_A() = 1
    

The next rules are strictly ordered:

  p1

We remove them from the problem.  Then no dependency pair remains.

Take the monotone reduction pair:

  lexicographic combination of reduction pairs:
  
    1. lexicographic path order with precedence:
    
      precedence:
      
        s > half#
      
      argument filter:

    2. matrix interpretations:
    
      carrier: N^1
      order: standard order
      interpretations:
        half#_A(x1) = x1
        s_A(x1) = x1 + 1
    

The next rules are strictly ordered:

  p1
  r1, r2, r3, r4, r5

We remove them from the problem.  Then no dependency pair remains.
