Popis: | Given a strong bimonoid P, we introduce three different behaviors of a weighted finite automaton over P (called a P − valued finite automaton), named the initial object semantics, final object semantics and run semantics. We define four forms for a P − valued nondeterministic finite automaton ( P − NFA) and three forms for a P − valued deterministic finite automaton ( P − DFA). Under the above-mentioned semantics, the equivalence and differences among the four forms of P − NFAs are discussed and the equivalence among the three forms of P − DFAs are given. Moreover, we show that some equivalence depends on right distributivity or left distributivity, or even requires P to degenerate into a semiring. |
