Minimization of states in automata theory based on finite lattice-ordered monoids. (English) Zbl 1109.68058

Summary: We consider a concept of complete \(L\)-fuzzy matrix, define Complete Lattice-valued Finite Automata (CLFAs) and study their properties. The definitions of statewise equivalence relations and automata equivalence relations of a CLFA are given, two algorithms are aimed at the minimization of states of a CLFA.
