On Natural Representations of Objects
نویسنده
چکیده
We give explanations on the differences between a number of representations that have been proposed in the literature to measure the structural complexity of an object. In particular, we propose the notion of process complexity, the notion of sophistication from a given perspective, the notion of sophisticated depth, and the notion of self-dissimilarity. We also propose the notion of an approximate process for an object and argue that for all practical purposes, an approximate process is as good as an exact process.

Toward Spatial Reasoning about "Natural" Objects
Until now, most of works about Spatial Reasoning focused on artificial objects. This paper addresses Spatial Reasoning in the game of Go that is a domain where the objects look like "natural". Two criterias toward a definition of "natural" objects is proposed : fractal structure of objects and dependency between genesis and use of objects. Combinatorial complexity of the game of Go obliges the ...
متن کاملRedundancy and Dimensionality Reduction in Sparse-Distributed Representations of Natural Objects in Terms of Their Local Features
Low-dimensional representations are key to solving problems in highlevel vision, such as face compression and recognition. Factorial coding strategies for reducing the redundancy present in natural images on the basis of their second-order statistics have been successful in accounting for both psychophysical and neurophysiological properties of early vision. Class-specific representations are p...
متن کاملArithmetic Teichmuller Theory
By Grothedieck's Anabelian conjectures, Galois representations landing in outer automorphism group of the algebraic fundamental group which are associated to hyperbolic smooth curves defined over number fields encode all arithmetic information of these curves. The goal of this paper is to develope and arithmetic teichmuller theory, by which we mean, introducing arithmetic objects summarizing th...
متن کاملGlobally analytic $p$-adic representations of the pro--$p$--Iwahori subgroup of $GL(2)$ and base change, I : Iwasawa algebras and a base change map
This paper extends to the pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $GL(2)$ over an unramified finite extension of $mathbb{Q}_p$ the presentation of the Iwasawa algebra obtained earlier by the author for the congruence subgroup of level one of $SL(2, mathbb{Z}_p)$. It then describes a natural base change map between the Iwasawa algebras or more correctly, as it turns out, between the global distribut...
متن کاملUncertainty in fundamental natural frequency estimation for alluvial deposits
Seismic waves are filtered as they pass through soil layers, from bedrock to surface. Frequencies and amplitudes of the response wave are affected due to this filtration effect and this will result in different ground motion characteristics. Therefore, it is important to consider the impact of the soil properties on the evaluation of earthquake ground motions for the design of structures. Soil ...
متن کاملTractabilities and Intractabilities on Geometric Intersection Graphs
A graph is said to be an intersection graph if there is a set of objects such that each vertex corresponds to an object and two vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding objects have a nonempty intersection. There are several natural graph classes that have geometric intersection representations. The geometric representations sometimes help to prove tractability/intractability of p...
