Differential Logic, Dynamic Systems, Tangent Functors • Comment 1

Re: Differential Logic, Dynamic Systems, Tangent Functors • 1 Seeing as how quasi-neural models and the recurring issues of symbolic vs. connectionist paradigms have come round again, I thought I might revisit work I began initially in that context, investigating … Continue reading

Category Theory • Comment 1

I’m deep in the middle of upgrading my intro to sign relations and I am determined to stick to it this time but there will be a phase when it’s critical to bring category theory to bear on the development.  … Continue reading

Survey of Inquiry Driven Systems • 2

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

Differential Logic • Discussion 3

Re: R.J. Lipton • P<NP Instead of boolean circuit complexity I would look at logical graph complexity, where those logical graphs are constructed from minimal negation operators. Physics once had a frame problem (complexity of dynamic updating) long before AI … Continue reading

Readings On Determination • Discussion 4

Re: Peirce List • Gary Fuhrman Determination, along with the related concepts of constraint, definition, form, structure, etc., are subjects of recurring discussion.  Here are links to readings I collected back when I began approaching inference, information, inquiry, logic, sign processes, … Continue reading

Differential Logic • 10

It’s been a while, so let’s review … Tables A1 and A2 showed two ways of organizing the sixteen boolean functions or propositional forms on two variables, as expressed in several notations.  For ease of reference, here are fresh copies … Continue reading

Differential Logic • Discussion 2

Re: Peirce List • Edwina Taborsky I first encountered Peirce’s Collected Papers sometime during my freshman year in one of the quieter corners of the Michigan State Math Library where I used to hide out to study and shortly after … Continue reading

Propositional Forms on Two Variables Table A2 arranges the propositional forms on two variables according to another plan, sorting propositions with similar shapes into seven subclasses.  Thereby hangs many a tale, to be told in time. Table A2.  Propositional Forms … Continue reading

Re: Structural Modeling • Joseph Simpson Thanks, Joe, glad you liked the table, I’ve got a million of ’em!  I’ll be setting another mess of tables directly as we continue studying the effects of differential operators on families of propositional … Continue reading

Propositional Forms on Two Variables To broaden our experience with simple examples, let’s examine the sixteen functions of concrete type and abstract type   Our inquiry into the differential aspects of logical conjunction will pay dividends as we study the … Continue reading
