  To deal with system uncertainty, finite automata have been generalized into
fuzzy automata. Stamenkovic and Ciric proposed an approach using the position
automata for the construction of fuzzy automata from fuzzy regular expressions.
There exist multifarious methodologies for the construction of finite automata
from regular expressions known as Thompson construction, Antimirov partial
derivatives, Glushkov automata and follow automata etc. In this paper, we
propose an approach for the conversion of fuzzy regular expressions into fuzzy
automata using the concept of follow automata. The number of states of the
obtained Fuzzy automata using the proposed approach is lesser than the extant
approaches in the literature.
