On partially blind multihead finite automata
2006
Theoretical Computer Science
This work is concerned with 1-way multihead finite automata (FA), both deterministic and nondeterministic, in which the symbol under only one head controls its move. We call such a FA a partially blind multihead FA. We show some results regarding the decision problems and closure properties of blind multihead DFA and NFA. We also compare these devices with 1-way NFA augmented by reversal bounded counters. Finally, we also present some results regarding the simulation of a partially blind DFA and NFA by a probabilistic finite automaton.
