Differential Logic and Dynamic Systems • Overview

Posted on September 10, 2019 by Jon Awbrey

In modeling intelligent systems, whether we are trying to understand a natural system or engineer an artificial system, there has long been a tension or trade‑off between dynamic paradigms and symbolic paradigms.  Dynamic models take their cue from physics, using … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List Discussion • JBD • JA • JA Topology is the most general study of geometric space.  It is critical here to get beyond the “popular” accounts and learn the basics from a real math book.  A classic … Continue reading →

Survey of Inquiry Driven Systems • 1

Posted on May 14, 2015 by Jon Awbrey

This is a Survey of blog and wiki posts on Inquiry Driven Systems, material I plan to refine toward a more compact and systematic treatment of the subject. An inquiry driven system is a system having among its state variables … Continue reading →

All Process, No Paradox • 3

Consider what effects that might conceivably have practical bearings you conceive the objects of your conception to have.  Then, your conception of those effects is the whole of your conception of the object. Charles S. Peirce • “Issues of Pragmaticism” … Continue reading →
