The fuzzy automaton models the edit operations needed to transform any string into another one. The selection of appropriate fuzzy operations and fuzzy membership values for the transitions leads to improve the system performance for a particular application.application/pdfengFuzzy automataGenetic algorithmsString similarityinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
