L'inégalité de Kullback. Application à la théorie de l'estimation
We show that the size of a Las Vegas automaton and the size of a complete, minimal deterministic automaton accepting a regular language are polynomially related. More precisely, we show that if a regular language is accepted by a Las Vegas automaton having states such that the probability for a definite answer to occur is at least , then , where is the number of the states of the minimal deterministic automaton accepting . Earlier this result has been obtained in [2] by using a reduction...
We show that the size of a Las Vegas automaton and the size of a complete, minimal deterministic automaton accepting a regular language are polynomially related. More precisely, we show that if a regular language L is accepted by a Las Vegas automaton having r states such that the probability for a definite answer to occur is at least p, then r ≥ np, where n is the number of the states of the minimal deterministic automaton accepting L.
