Fuzzy Automata: A Quantitative Review

Abstract

Classical automata theory cannot deal with the system uncertainty. To deal with the system uncertainty the concept of fuzzy finite automata was proposed. Fuzzy automata can be used in diverse applications such as fault detection, pattern matching, measuring the fuzziness between strings, description of natural languages, neural network, lexical analysis, image processing, scheduling problem and many more. In this paper, a methodical literature review is carried out on various research works in the field of Fuzzy automata and explained the challenging issues in the field of fuzzy automata.
