摘要：We construct a minimal automaton for an output-incomplete Moore automaton. The approach is motivated by physical interpretation of seeing deterministic finite automata as models for elementary particles. When compared to some classical methods our minimal automaton is unique up to an isomorphism and preserves also the undefined or unspecified behaviour of the original automaton. 1.)
