In this paper, we present a parallel algorithm for the minimization of deterministic finite state automata (DFA's) and discuss its implementation on a connection machine CM-5...
A cover-automaton A of a finite language L is a finite automaton that accepts all words in L and possibly other words that are longer than any word in L. A minimal deterministic co...
: In this paper, we present a fast and simple algorithm for constructing a minimal acyclic deterministic finite automaton from a finite set of words. Such automata are useful in a ...
Previous work on minimizing weighted finite-state automata (including transducers) is limited to particular types of weights. We present efficient new minimization algorithms th...
Abstract. We present a reflection on the evolution of the different methods for constructing minimal deterministic acyclic finite-state automata from a finite set of words. We ...
