New Results on Vector and Homing Vector Automata

Abstract

We present several new results and connections between various extensions of finite automata through the study of vector automata and homing vector automata. We show that homing vector automata outperform extended finite automata when both are defined over 2 × 2 integer matrices. We study the string separation problem for vector automata and demonstrate that generalized finite automata with rational entries can separate any pair of strings using only two states. Investigating stateless homing vector automata, we prove that a language is recognized by stateless blind deterministic realtime version of finite automata with multiplication iff it is commutative and its Parikh image is the set of nonnegative integer solutions to a system of linear homogeneous Diophantine equations.

Traceability and Quality Monitoring Improvement Throughout Carrot Supply Chain With The Implementation of Internet-Of-Things

“…Moreover, these models are suitable for grading the quality of fruit and vegetable quality for different purposes. Notably, the ANFIS model performed better than other models and applicable for storage management with satisfactory results [8].…”

“…The determination and monitoring of quality properties of fresh produce are often forgotten or missed in traditional supply chain management. However, non-destructive methods have been developed over the last decade and have shown potential for application during storage and supply chain [7][8][9][10]. Simultaneously, information and communication technology (ICT) and the Internet of Things (IoT) in various aspects of agribusiness have been studied and reported, especially in developed countries [11][12][13].…”
