Identification in the Limit with Probability One of Stochastic Deterministic Finite Automata [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The current formal proof that stochastic deterministic finite automata can be identified in the limit with probability one makes use of a simplified state-merging algorithm. We prove in this paper that the Alergia algorithm, and its extensions, which may use some blue fringe type of ordering, can also identify distributions generated by stochastic deterministic finite automata. We also give a new algorithm enabling us to identify the actual probabilities, even though in practice, the number of examples needed can still be overwhelming.
