What is the purpose of the CYK algorithm in automata theory?

The purpose of the CYK (Cocke-Younger-Kasami) algorithm in automata theory is to determine whether a given string can be generated by a given context-free grammar. It is a parsing algorithm that uses dynamic programming to efficiently check if a string belongs to a language defined by a context-free grammar.
