  2. Deterministic pushdown automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterministic_pushdown...

    The two are not equivalent for the deterministic pushdown automaton (although they are for the non-deterministic pushdown automaton). The languages accepted by empty stack are those languages that are accepted by final state and are prefix-free: no word in the language is the prefix of another word in the language.

  3. Pushdown automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pushdown_automaton

    For a context-free grammar in Greibach normal form, defining (1,γ) ∈ δ(1,a,A) for each grammar rule A → aγ also yields an equivalent nondeterministic pushdown automaton. [4] The converse, finding a grammar for a given PDA, is not that easy. The trick is to code two states of the PDA into the nonterminals of the grammar. Theorem.

  4. Context-free grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context-free_grammar

    LR grammars (also known as deterministic context-free grammars) allow parsing (string recognition) with deterministic pushdown automata (PDA), but they can only describe deterministic context-free languages. Simple LR, Look-Ahead LR grammars are subclasses that allow further simplification of parsing. SLR and LALR are recognized using the same ...

  5. List of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_probability...

    The normal distribution, also called the Gaussian or the bell curve. It is ubiquitous in nature and statistics due to the central limit theorem: every variable that can be modelled as a sum of many small independent, identically distributed variables with finite mean and variance is approximately normal. The normal-exponential-gamma distribution

  6. Nondeterministic finite automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_finite...

    A deterministic finite automaton (DFA) can be seen as a special kind of NFA, in which for each state and symbol, the transition function has exactly one state. Thus, it is clear that every formal language that can be recognized by a DFA can be recognized by an NFA.

  7. Nondeterministic Turing machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_Turing...

    Comparison of deterministic and nondeterministic computation. In contrast to a deterministic Turing machine, in a nondeterministic Turing machine (NTM) the set of rules may prescribe more than one action to be performed for any given situation. For example, an X on the tape in state 3 might allow the NTM to:

  8. Nondeterministic algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_algorithm

    Different models of computation give rise to different reasons that an algorithm may be non-deterministic, and different ways to evaluate its performance or correctness: A concurrent algorithm can perform differently on different runs due to a race condition. This can happen even with a single-threaded algorithm when it interacts with resources ...

  9. Queue automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_automaton

    A queue machine can be simulated by a Turing machine, but more easily by a multi-tape Turing machine, which is known to be equivalent to a normal single-tape machine. The simulating queue machine reads input on one tape and stores the queue on the second, with pushes and pops defined by simple transitions to the beginning and end symbols of the ...
