Abstract

The properties of the class of information-lossless automata represented by recurrent relations over a finite ring are investigated. For these automata, the structure of classes of equivalent states is investigated, problems of parametric identification and identification of the initial state are solved, and the variation in the behavior of such automata as a result of variation of their parameters or initial states is characterized.
