Let α, β be real numbers and b≥ 2 be an integer. Allouche and Shallit showed that the sequence {⌊ α n+ β⌋} n≥ 0 is b-regular if and only if α is rational. In this paper, using a base-independent regular language, we prove a similar result that the sequence {⌊ log b(α n+ β)⌋} n≥ 0 is b-regular if and only if α is rational, where α> 0, β≥ 0. In particular, when α= 2, β= 0 and b= 2, we answer a question of Allouche and Shallit that the sequence {⌊ 1 2+ log 2 n⌋} n≥ 1 is not 2-regular, which has previously been proved by Bell, Moshe and Rowland respectively.
