Animated Logical Graphs • 81

Re: R.J. Lipton and K.W. Regan • A Negative Comment On Negations Minsky and Papert’s Perceptrons was the work that nudged me over the line from gestalt psychology, psychophysics, relational biology, etc. and made me believe AI could fly.  I later … Continue reading

Logical Graphs • Discussion 4

Re: Category Theory • Henry Story HS: Evan Patterson’s “Knowledge Representation in Bicategories of Relations” is also drawn up in terms of string diagrams, as a way of explaining the W3C RDF and OWL standards.  So it looks like we … Continue reading

Logical Graphs • Discussion 2

Re: Category Theory • Chad Nester CN: Recently a few of us have been using the “cartesian bicategories of relations” of Carboni and Walters, in particular their string diagrams, as syntax for relations.  The string diagrams in question are more … Continue reading
