Abstract:
The article describes deterministic, non-deterministic and probabilistic finite automata. The division of program execution into automaton steps and the transfer of information from step to step through the state is necessary when building event-oriented applications. The use of probabilistic automata affects such areas as the creation of artificial intelligence systems, working with fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic, recognition of complex images, etc.
Keywords:deterministic and non-deterministic automata, probabilistic automata, pattern recognition.
