Abstract

In this paper, we introduce Mizumota automata whose initial and final states are fuzzy. Furthermore, the equivalence of the type of Mizumoto automaton(MA) and canonical fuzzy finite automaton(CA) with single initial state and deterministic transition function is established. Then we present a method to minimize the states of automata in canonical form.
