Bipolar Fuzzy Finite State Machines

kaviphd@gm ail.comAbstract. As a generalization of a fuzzy finite state machine, the notion of abipolar fuzzy finite state machine is introduced. Also, the concepts of a bipolar(immediate) successor, a bipolar exchange property and a bipolar subsystem areintroduced. Some related properties are discussed. A condition for a bipolarfuzzy finite state machine to satisfy the bipolar exchange property is established.Acharacterizationofabipolarsubsystemisinitiated.2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 68Q70, 68Q45, 18B20, 03E72Keywords and phrases: Bipolar fuzzy finite state machine, bipolar (immedi-ate) successor, bipolar exchange property, bipolar subsystem.
