Theory of Computation, Fuzziness and a physics of the immaterial

چکیده
In this paper we advance three clear-cut proposals as a contribution to the discussion on the role of notions of Computation and Fuzziness as a bridge between Hard and Soft Sciences. We suggest that an important difference between the two great families of science lies in their subject or research having a grounding in nature or not, and that Theory of Computation is a glaring exception to this classification, being a textbook hard science but dealing with the immaterial. We further advance that such unicity is strongly connected with Church-Turing thesis, and discuss about the role of Computation and Fuzziness as pillars of immaterial sciences

The Principle of Relativity: From Ungar’s Gyrolanguage for Physics to Weaving Computation in Mathematics
This paper extends the scope of algebraic computation based on a non standard $times$ to the more basic case of a non standard $+$, where standard means associative and commutative. Two physically meaningful examples of a non standard $+$ are provided by the observation of motion in Special Relativity, from either outside (3D) or inside (2D or more), We revisit the ``gyro''-theory ...
متن کاملA research on classification performance of fuzzy classifiers based on fuzzy set theory
Due to the complexities of objects and the vagueness of the human mind, it has attracted considerable attention from researchers studying fuzzy classification algorithms. In this paper, we propose a concept of fuzzy relative entropy to measure the divergence between two fuzzy sets. Applying fuzzy relative entropy, we prove the conclusion that patterns with high fuzziness are close to the classi...
متن کاملFUZZY INFORMATION AND STOCHASTICS
In applications there occur different forms of uncertainty. The twomost important types are randomness (stochastic variability) and imprecision(fuzziness). In modelling, the dominating concept to describe uncertainty isusing stochastic models which are based on probability. However, fuzzinessis not stochastic in nature and therefore it is not considered in probabilisticmodels.Since many years t...

متن کاملA generalization of the Chen-Wu duality into quantale-valued setting
With the unit interval [0,1] as the truth value table, Chen and Wupresented the concept of possibility computation over dcpos.Indeed, every possibility computation can be considered as a[0,1]-valued Scott open set on a dcpo. The aim of this paper is tostudy Chen-Wu's duality on quantale-valued setting. For clarity,with a commutative unital quantale $L$ as the truth value table, weintroduce a c...
