Categorizing Ideas about Trees: A Tree of Trees
The aim of this study is to explore whether matrices and MP trees used to produce systematic categories of organisms could be useful to produce categories of ideas in history of science. We study the history of the use of trees in systematics to represent the diversity of life from 1766 to 1991. We apply to those ideas a method inspired from coding homologous parts of organisms. We discretize c...
متن کاملCategorizing Ideas about Systematics: Alternative Trees of Trees, and Related Representations
In historical accounts of science, it is a common practice to assign labels to members of various intellectual schools, such as Pythagoreans, Essentialists, Darwinists, or Popperians. These categories are determined in most cases based on a fairly subjective basis, without formal quantitative analyses of the views expressed by designated representatives of these schools. A noted exception is a ...
متن کاملTrees in Trees: Is the Incomplete Information about a Tree Consistent?
We are interested in the following problem: given a tree automaton A and an incomplete tree description P , does a tree T exist such that T is accepted by A and consistent with P? A tree description is a tree-like structure which provides incomplete information about the shape of T . We show that this problem can be solved in polynomial time as long as A and the set of possible arrangements tha...
متن کاملTalking About Trees
In this paper we introduce a modal language L T for imposing constraints on trees, and an extension LT(L r) for imposing constraints on trees decorated with feature structures. The motivation for introducing these languages is to provide tools for formalising grammatical frameworks perspicuously, and the paper illustrates this by showing how the leading ideas of GPS6 can be captured in LT(LF). ...
متن کاملTree - Decision Trees for Tree Structured Data∗
We present Tree, a new approach to structural classification. This integrated approach induces decision trees that test for pattern occurrence in the inner nodes. It combines state-of-the-art tree mining with sophisticated pruning techniques to find the most discriminative pattern in each node. In contrast to existing methods, Tree uses no heuristics and only a single, statistically well founde...
