Semi-decidability of May, Must and Probabilistic Testing in a Higher-type Setting

نویسنده

  • Martín Hötzel Escardó
چکیده

We show that, in a fairly general setting including higher-types, may, must and probabilistic testing are semidecidable. The case of must testing is perhaps surprising, as its mathematical definition involves universal quantification over the infinity of possible outcomes of a non-deterministic program. The other two involve existential quantification and integration. We also perform first steps towards the semi-decidability of similar tests under the simultaneous presence of non-deterministic and probabilistic choice.

Modelling and Experimental Testing of Asymmetric Information Problems in Lease and Hire Contracts (Based on Contract Theory)

This article aims to study lease and hiring contract in the Iranian-Islamic setting and analyze the asymmetric information problem in these contracts. For doing this, we study the characteristics of lease and hiring contracts in Iran (real world experimental characteristics that recognized in other studies), using library method, then we mathematically model different aspects of asymmetric info...

Remarks on Testing Probabilistic Processes

We develop a general testing scenario for probabilistic processes, giving rise to two theories: probabilistic may testing and probabilistic must testing. These are applied to a simple probabilistic version of the process calculus CSP. We examine the algebraic theory of probabilistic testing, and show that many of the axioms of standard testing are no longer valid in our probabilistic setting; e...

Correspondence between probabilistic norms and fuzzy norms

In this paper, the connection between Menger probabilistic norms and H"{o}hle probabilistic norms is discussed. In addition, the correspondence between probabilistic norms and Wu-Fang fuzzy (semi-) norms is established. It is shown that a probabilistic norm (with triangular norm $min$) can generate a Wu-Fang fuzzy semi-norm and conversely, a Wu-Fang fuzzy norm can generate a probabilistic norm.

Influence of Setting Time of Tack Coat on Bond Strength of Bituminous Paving Layers

Poor adhesion between two successive bituminous layers causes adverse effects on the structural strength of the pavement and develops a numbers of premature failure. To improve the adhesion, it is a general practice to apply a tack coat over an existing or newly constructed bituminous surface before laying another bituminous layer. The main objective of this study is to explore the influence of...

Persian Handwritten Digit Recognition Using Particle Swarm Probabilistic Neural Network

Handwritten digit recognition can be categorized as a classification problem. Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) is one of the most effective and useful classifiers, which works based on Bayesian rule. In this paper, in order to recognize Persian (Farsi) handwritten digit recognition, a combination of intelligent clustering method and PNN has been utilized. Hoda database, which includes 80000 P...
