Causal Reasoning in Infants and Adults: Revisiting backwards-blocking
Causal learning is a fundamental ability that enables human reasoners to learn about the complex interactions in the world around them. The available evidence with children and adults, however, suggests that the mechanism or set of mechanisms that underpins causal perception and causal reasoning are not well understood; that is, it is unclear whether causal perception and causal reasoning are u...
متن کاملSophisticated Infinite Sequences
In this paper we revisit the notion of sophistication for infinite sequences. Koppel defined sophistication of an object as the length of the shortest (finite) total program (p) that with some (finite or infinite) data (d) produce it and |p|+ |d| is smaller than the shortest description of the object plus a constant. However the notion of “description of infinite sequences” is not appropriately...
متن کاملDENSE INFINITE Bh SEQUENCES
For h = 3 and h = 4 we prove the existence of infinite Bh sequences B with counting function B(x) = x √ (h−1)2+1−(h−1)+o(1). This result extends a construction of I. Ruzsa for B2 sequences.
متن کاملInfinite Sidon sequences
We give the first explicit construction of an infinite Sidon sequence A with A(x) x for some c > 1/3. Our method allows to take c = √ 2− 1. Ruzsa proved the existence of a Sidon sequence with similar counting function but his proof was not constructive. Our method generalizes to Bh sequences when h ≥ 3. In these case our constructions are not explicit but they give the first improvements on the...
متن کاملAperiodicity Measure for Infinite Sequences
We introduce the notion of aperiodicity measure for in nite symbolic sequences. Informally speaking, the aperiodicity measure of a sequence is the maximum number (between 0 and 1) such that this sequence di ers from each of its non-identical shifts in at least fraction of symbols being this number. We give lower and upper bounds on the aperiodicity measure of a sequence over a xed alphabet. We ...
