Abstract:

The minimal determinization of nondeterministic fuzzy finite automata (NFFA) is an important problem in automata theory. A new minimal determinization method for nondeterministic fuzzy finite automata with membership values in lattice-ordered monoids called interior construction is presented. For this reason, the definition of the interior of a fuzzy state and its related properties are given firstly. It is further proved that for any nondeterministic fuzzy finite automata, a minimal deterministic fuzzy finite automata is obtained by using the internal properties of fuzzy states, which is equivalent to it, finally, the correctness of this method is verified by an example.

Key words: lattice-ordered monoids, nondeterministic fuzzy finite automata, deterministic fuzzy finite automata, minimal determinization, interior construction
