The purpose of this paper is meant to be three-fold. First it will introduce the reader to the concepts of Probabilistic Languages and Probabilistic Grammars. Second, it indicates that previous definitions of probabilistic finite automaton have always been restricted to 1 of 8 classes of automaton and shows that other classes are useful. Third, the probabilistic concept is extended from finite automata to higher level automata (such as probabilistic PDAs and probabilistic Turing automata). A specific application of this theory is given in the development of Probabilistic Tree Automata. Theorems concerning these automata and operations on them are presented. It is indicated that this type of automaton is relevant because it characterizes Probabilistic Context Free Languages. The results are taken from the author's PhD Thesis.4
