  1. FSA Lecture 1 Finite State Machines

  2. Creating a Automaton • Given a language L over an alphabet , design a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) M such that L(M) = L.

  3. Example 1 • L1 = { w | w is a string over {0, 1} that contains an even number of 0s and an odd number of 1s } • Method:Define nodes to represent when a) both an even number of 0s and 1s have been seen in the input b) both an odd number of 0s and 1s have been seen in the input c) an even number of 0s and an odd number of 1s have been seen in the input d) an even number of 1s and an odd number of 0s have been seen in the input

  4. Example 1 1 qee qeo 1 0 0 0 0 1 qoe qoo 1

  5. Example 2 • L2 = { w | w is a string over {0, 1} that does not contain an even number of 0s and an odd number of 1s } = L1

  6. Example 2 1 qeo qee 1 0 0 0 0 1 qoe qoo 1

  7. Example 3 • L3 = { w | w is a string over {0, 1} such that |w|  3} = {, 0, 1, 00, 01, 10, 11, 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110, 111}

  8. Example 3 0, 1 0, 1 0, 1 q2 q3 q0 q1 0, 1 q4 0, 1

  9. Example 4 • L4 = { w | w is a string over {0, 1} such that w contains the substring 11} = { w | w = x11y, where x and y are strings over {0, 1}}

  10. Example 4 0 0, 1 q0 q1 1 1 q2 0

  11. Machine M accepts string w • If there exists a sequence of states r0, r1, …, rn in Q such that1) r0 = q0 2)  (ri , wi+1) = ri+1, for i=0,…,n-1 3) rn in FNote: w = w1w2…wn

  12. Regular Languages • Machine M recognizes language A if A = {w| M accepts w} • A language is called regular if some finite automaton recognizes it.

  13. Regular Operations • Let A and B be languages. • UnionA  B = { x | x in A or x in B} • ConcatenationA  B = {xy | x in A and y in B} • StarA* = {x1x2…xk | k 0 and each xj in A}Note:  is always a member of A*.

  14. Regular languages are closed under union • Let A1 and A2 be regular languages. We want to show A1A2 is a regular language. Since A1 and A2 are regular languages there exists a finite automaton M1 and there exists a finite automaton M2 such that M1 recognizes A1 and M2 recognizes A2. Assume M1 = (Q1, , 1, q1, F1) and M2 = (Q2, , 2, q2, F2) It suffices to create a finite automaton M that recognizes A1A2.

  15. Continue … • Let a be a symbol in  and states r1 in Q1 and r2 in Q2. Define M = (Q, , , q0, F) where Q =Q1 x Q2 states ((r1, r2), a) = (1(r1, a), 2(r2, a)) transition function q0 = (q1, q2) start stateF = (F1 x Q2)  (Q1 x F2) final states

  16. Regular languages are closed under concatenation • Let A1 and A2 be regular languages. We want to show A1 A2 is a regular language. Since A1 and A2 are regular languages there exists a finite automaton M1 and there exists a finite automaton M2 such that M1 recognizes A1 and M2 recognizes A2. Assume M1 = (Q1, , 1, q1, F1) and M2 = (Q2, , 2, q2, F2) It suffices to create a finite automaton M that recognizes A1 A2. There is a problem since M doesn’t know where to subdivide the input string into the part accepted by M1 and the remaining part that will be accepted by M2. We will return to this later.

  17. Non-Deterministic Automaton • NFAs generalize DFAs. • In a DFA, each state has exactly one transition for each symbol in the alphabet. • In an NFA, at any state there may be zero or more transitions for a symbol in the alphabet. • In a DFA, a label on a transition arrow is a symbol in the alphabet. • In an NFA, a label on a transition arrow is a symbol in the alphabet or .

  19. Non-Deterministic Automaton • NFAs generalize DFAs. • In a DFA, each state has exactly one transition for each symbol in the alphabet. • In an NFA, at any state there may be zero or more transitions for a symbol in the alphabet. • In a DFA, a label on a transition arrow is a symbol in the alphabet. • In an NFA, a label on a transition arrow is a symbol in the alphabet or .

  22. Non-Deterministic Finite Automaton • N = (Q, , , q0, F)Q is a finite set of states  is a finite alphabet: Q x (  {})  (Q) F  Q is a set of accept states (Q) is the powerset of Q = {X| X  Q}

  23.  (ri , wi+1) is a set of states Machine N accepts string w • If there exists a sequence of states r0, r1, …, rn in Q such that1) r0 = q0 2) ri+1 in  (ri , wi+1) for i=0,…,n-1 3) rn in FNote: w = w1w2…wn

  24. Are NFAs more powerful than DFAs? • Every deterministic finite automaton has an equivalent non-deterministic finite automaton. (see next slide) • Every non-deterministic finite automaton has an equivalent deterministic finite automaton.

  28. Continued … 3) q0’ = { q0} 4) F’ = {R in Q’| R contains an accept state of N}Assume  edges, then we need these modifications.Let R be a state of M. Define E(R) = {q| q can be reached from R traveling along 0 or more  edges}Modify ’(R,a) = {q in Q| q in E((r,a)) for some r in R} =  E((r,a)) transition function r in R’({1,2},b) = E((1,b))  E((2,b)) = E({2})  E({3}) = {2,3}’({3},a) = E((3,a)) = E({1}) = {1,3} q0’ = E({q0}) start state

  46. Regular Expressions vs. Regular Languages • A language is regular if and only if some regular expression describes it.Part a) If a regular expression describes a language then it is regular.Part b) If a language is regular then a regular expression describes it.

  48. • NFA that recognizes {}

  49. • NFA that recognizes 
