摘要
The concept of a fuzzy automaton, as studied in the literature, is a direct generalization of the classical concept of a non-deterministic automaton. In this paper, we consider the question of whether there is a deterministic counterpart to the notion of a fuzzy automaton. We propose a definition of deterministic fuzzy automata and show that they are equally powerful as fuzzy automata. Compared to the classical notion of a deterministic automaton, the deterministic fuzzy automaton defined in our paper differs essentially only in that the final states form a fuzzy set. Moreover, we show that deterministic fuzzy automata are equally powerful as nested systems of deterministic automata. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
