We use the technique of [TOCL09]. With regard to the inferred argument filtering the predicates were used in the following modes:
shuffle_in: (b,b,f)
Transforming Prolog into the following Term Rewriting System:
Pi-finite rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

shuffle_in_gga(A, [], A) → shuffle_out_gga(A, [], A)
shuffle_in_gga([], B, B) → shuffle_out_gga([], B, B)
shuffle_in_gga(.(A, RestA), B, .(A, Shuffled)) → U1_gga(A, RestA, B, Shuffled, shuffle_in_gga(RestA, B, Shuffled))
shuffle_in_gga(A, .(B, RestB), .(B, Shuffled)) → U2_gga(A, B, RestB, Shuffled, shuffle_in_gga(A, RestB, Shuffled))
U2_gga(A, B, RestB, Shuffled, shuffle_out_gga(A, RestB, Shuffled)) → shuffle_out_gga(A, .(B, RestB), .(B, Shuffled))
U1_gga(A, RestA, B, Shuffled, shuffle_out_gga(RestA, B, Shuffled)) → shuffle_out_gga(.(A, RestA), B, .(A, Shuffled))
