Simplicity and Representation Change in Grammar Induction
In this paper we examine the role of a bias toward simplicity in directing the process of representation change. We focus on the task of inducing context-free grammars from sample sentences, and we present a rational reconstruction of Woll's SNPR { the Grids system { that incorporates the simplicity bias. The basic induction method alternates between merging existing nonterminal symbols and cre...

متن کاملA representation for some groups, a geometric approach
In the present paper, we are going to use geometric and topological concepts, entities and properties of the integral curves of linear vector fields, and the theory of differential equations, to establish a representation for some groups on $R^{n} (ngeq 1)$. Among other things, we investigate the surjectivity and faithfulness of the representation. At the end, we give some app...
