Abstract:

This paper introduces the notion of multidimensional fuzzy finite tree automata (MFFTA) and investigates its closure properties from the area of automata and language theory. MFFTA are a superclass of fuzzy tree automata whose behavior is generalized to adapt to multidimensional fuzzy sets. An MFFTA recognizes a multidimensional fuzzy tree language which is a regular tree language so that for each dimension, a fuzzy membership grade is assigned to each tree. We study MFFTA by extending some classical problems and properties of automata and regular languages such as determinization, reduction, duality and operations on languages. Furthermore, we provided the method of converting every complete fuzzy tree automata to an MFFTA as well as an example to show the efficiency of MFFTA in comparison to FFTA.}

Minimization of Fuzzy Finite Tree Automata

Fuzzy Finite Tree Automata (FFTA) are natural generalizations of fuzzy automata on words. FFTA accept fuzzy tree languages and are used in many areas of mathematics, computer science and engineering. Therefore, it is important to design algorithms that reduce the size (number of states) of automata, and find the minimal FFTA that recognizes the same language as a given FFTA. We present two mini...

NEW DIRECTION IN FUZZY TREE AUTOMATA

In this paper, our focus of attention is the proper propagationof fuzzy degrees in determinization of $Nondeterministic$ $Fuzzy$$Finite$ $Tree$ $Automata$ (NFFTA). Initially, two determinizationmethods are introduced which have some limitations (one inbehavior preserving and other in type of fuzzy operations). Inorder to eliminate these limitations and increasing theefficiency of FFTA, we defin...

Residual Finite Tree Automata

Tree automata based algorithms are essential in many fields in computer science such as verification, specification, program analysis. They become also essential for databases with the development of standards such as XML. In this paper, we define new classes of non deterministic tree automata, namely residual finite tree automata (RFTA). In the bottom-up case, we obtain a new characterization ...

Finite Entropy for Multidimensional Cellular Automata

Let X = S where G is a countable group and S is a finite set. A cellular automaton (CA) is an endomorphism T : X → X (continuous, commuting with the action of G). Shereshevsky [14] proved that for G = Z with d > 1 no CA can be forward expansive, raising the following conjecture: For G = Z, d > 1 the topological entropy of any CA is either zero or infinite. Morris and Ward [11], proved this for ...

Reversibility Problem of Multidimensional Finite Cellular Automata

While the reversibility of multidimensional cellular automata is undecidable and there exists a criterion for determining if a multidimensional linear cellular automaton is reversible, there are only a few results about the reversibility problem of multidimensional linear cellular automata under boundary conditions. This work proposes a criterion for testing the reversibility of a multidimensio...
