a) 010b) 1101 c) 1111110d) 010101010

(a) It is recognized.

(b) It is not recognized.

(c) It is recognized.

(d) It is recognized.

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: According to figure 1.

Here the given figure contains four states \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}{\bf{,}}{{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}{\bf{,}}{{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}{\bf{,}}{{\bf{s}}_{\bf{3}}}\).

If there is an arrow from \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\)to\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{j}}}\) with label x, then we write it down\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{j}}}\) in the row \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\)and column x of the following table.

State

0

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{3}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)is marked as the start state.

Since \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\) and \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{3}}}\) are encircled twice, a string will be recognized by the deterministic finite state automaton if we end at state \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\) or state\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{3}}}\).

Step 2: Solving for 010

Here the given data is 010.

Let's determine the sequence of states that are visited when the input is 111.

If \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the next state of a digit, then \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the start state of the next digit.

Input

Start state

Next state

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

Since we end at the final state \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\), the string is recognized by the deterministic finite state automaton.

Step 3: Result for 1101

Here the given data is 1101.

Let's determine the sequence of states that are visited when the input is 111.

If \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the next state of a digit, then \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the start state of the next digit.

Input

Start state

Next state

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

Since we end at the final state \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)and \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\) is not a final state, the string is not recognized by the deterministic finite state automaton.

Step 4: Determine the result for 1111110

Here the given data is 1111110.

Let's determine the sequence of states that are visited when the input is 1111110.

If \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the next state of a digit, then \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the start state of the next digit.

Input

Start state

Next state

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{2}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

Since we end at the final state \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\), the string is recognized by the deterministic finite state automaton.

Step 5: Find the result for 010101010

Here the given data is 010101010.

Let's determine the sequence of states that are visited when the input is 111.

If \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the next state of a digit, then \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{i}}}\) is the start state of the next digit.

Input

Start state

Next state

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

1

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

0

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{1}}}\)

\({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)

Since we end at the final state \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\)and \({{\bf{s}}_{\bf{o}}}\) is a final state, the string is recognized by the deterministic finite state automaton.

Therefore, the results are:

(a) It is recognized.

(b) It is not recognized.

(c) It is recognized.

(d) It is recognized.
