Use Thompson's algorithm to build the NFA for the following regular expression. Build the corresponding DFA and minimize it.

  • (a|b)*abb(a|b)*

NFA

The following is the result of applying Thompson's algorithm.


DFA

Determination table for the above NFA:

Graphically, the DFA is represented as follows:


Minimal DFA

The minimization tree is as follows.


The tree expansion for non-splitting sets has been omitted for simplicity ("a" transition for non-final states and the {0, 2} "a" and "b" transitions. The final states are all indistinguishable, regarding both "a" or "b" transitions (remember that, at this stage, we assume that individual states -- i.e., the final states -- are all indistinguishable).

Given the minimization tree above, the final minimal DFA is:
