  1. Descriptive complexity theory

    Otheruses Kolmogorov complexity Descriptive complexity is a branch of computational complexity theory and of finite model theory that characterizes complexity class es by the type of logic needed to express the languages in them. For example, PH complexity PH , the union of all complexity classes in the polynomial hierarchy, is precisely the class of languages expressible by statements of second order logic . This connection between complexity and the logic of finite structures allows results to be transferred easily from one area to the other, facilitating new proof methods and providing additional evidence that the main complexity classes are somehow natural and not tied to the specific abstract machine s used to define them. Specifically, each logical system produces a set of query complexity queries expressible in it. The queries when restricted to finite structures correspond to the computational problem s of traditional complexity theory. The first main result of descriptive complexity was Fagin s theorem , shown by Ronald Fagin in 1974. It established that NP complexity NP is precisely the set of languages expressible by sentences of existential second order logic that is, second order logic excluding universal quantification over relations, functions, and subsets. Many other classes were later characterized in such a manner, most of them by Neil Immerman First order logic defines the class FO complexity FO , corresponding to AC0 AC sup 0 sup , the languages recognized by polynomial size circuits of bounded depth, which equals the languages recognized by a concurrent ... , pp.347&ndash 354. 1983. cite book last Immerman first Neil authorlink Neil Immerman title Descriptive ... is a suitable introduction for undergraduates External links http www.cs.umass.edu immerman descriptive complexity.html Neil Immerman s descriptive complexity page , including a diagram reflist comp sci theory stub Category Descriptive complexity Category Computational complexity theory Category Finite ...   more details



  1. Descriptive Color Names Dictionary

    orphan date August 2010 The Descriptive Color Names Dictionary is a dictionary of color terms color names used for mass market clothing and consumer merchandise, such as those in mail order catalogs. It relates each color name to one or more color swatches in the Color Harmony Manual , a color atlas based on the Ostwald color system . The book was edited by Helen Taylor, Lucille Knoche, and Walter Granville, and was published by the Container Corporation of America in 1950 and distributed free to owners of the Color Harmony Manual . The editors decided to use the Color Harmony Manual and the Ostwald system as a basis for their dictionary because it is easy to relate to basic color names, includes the gamut color gamut of most mass market products, and has easily removable double sided one glossy, one matte color chips. Because colorimetry colorimetric coordinates of the Color Harmony Dictionary were published, the names can also be easily related to other color order systems. Choice of names The editors chose the names for the dictionary and their corresponding colors by comparing the chips in the Color Harmony Manual to physical products advertised with color names, and also made reference to a number of already published color dictionaries. Where names referred to natural objects they examined those objects directly. List of Colors forthcoming table References Walter C. Granville and Egbert Jacobson 1944 .

  1. Descriptive Catalogue (1809)

    File William Blake Descriptive Catalogue.jpg thumb The title page of the Descriptive Catalogue The Descriptive Catalogue of 1809 is a description of, and prospectus for, an exhibition by William Blake of a number of his own illustrations for various topics, but most notably including a set of illustrations to Geoffrey Chaucer Chaucer s Canterbury Tales , this last being a response to a collapsed contract with dealer Robert Cromek . Having conceived the idea of portraying the characters in Chaucer s The Canterbury Tales Canterbury Pilgrims , Blake approached Cromek with a view to marketing an engraving. Knowing that Blake was too eccentric to produce a popular work, Cromek promptly commissioned Thomas Stothard to execute the concept. When Blake learned that he had been cheated, he broke off contact with Stothard, formerly a friend. He also set up an independent exhibition in his brother s haberdashery shop at 27 Broad Street in the Soho district of London . The exhibition was designed to market his own version of the Chaucer illustration, along with other works. As a result he wrote his Descriptive Catalogue of 1809, which contains what Anthony Blunt has called a brilliant analysis of Chaucer. It is regularly anthologised as a classic of Chaucer criticism. ref Blunt, Anthony, The Art of William Blake , p 77 ref It also contained detailed explanations of his other paintings. The price of the Catalogue was 2s 6d one eighth of a List of British bank notes and coins pound sterling , and of admission to the exhibition 1s one twentieth of a pound sterling the usual price for exhibitions at the period. At the time a minor house servant might be paid ten pounds per year. An Index to the Catalogue was free with admission to the exhibition. The Preface to the Catalogue begins with a diatribe against the Venetian Antonio da Correggio Correggio and Titian . It concludes using the conventional spellings of his day blockquote Colouring does not depend on where the Colours are put, but on where ...   more details



  1. Spatial descriptive statistics

    Refimprove date October 2009 Spatial descriptive statistics are used for a variety of purposes in geography, particularly in quantitative data analyses involving GIS Geographic Information Systems GIS . Types of spatial data The simplest forms of spatial data are gridded data , in which a scalar quantity is measured for each point in a regular grid of points, and point sets , in which a set of coordinates e.g. of points in the plane is observed. An example of gridded data would be a satellite image of forest density that has been digitized on a grid. An example of a point set would be the latitude longitude coordinates of all elm trees in a particular plot of land. More complicated forms of data include marked point sets and spatial time series. Measures of spatial central tendency The coordinate wise mean of a point set is the centroid , which solves the same central tendency solutions to variational problems variational problem in the plane or higher dimensional Euclidean space that the familiar average solves on the real line &mdash that is, the centroid has the smallest possible average squared distance to all points in the set. Measures of spatial dispersion statistical dispersion Dispersion captures the degree to which points in a point set are separated from each other. For most applications, spatial dispersion should be quantified in a way that is invariant to rotations and reflections. Several simple measures of spatial dispersion for a point set can be defined using the covariance matrix of the coordinates of the points. The trace linear algebra trace , the determinant , and the largest eigenvalue of the covariance matrix can be used as measures of spatial dispersion. A measure of spatial dispersion that is not based on the covariance matrix is the average distance between nearest neighbors ref cite journal last Clark first Philip coauthors Evans, Francis year ... functions Ripley s K and L functions are closely related descriptive statistics for detecting deviations ...   more details

DVS often is used to describe the product itself. History In 1985, TV station WGBH TV WGBH , the Boston, Massachusetts Boston , Massachusetts , member of the Public Broadcasting Service PBS , began investigating uses for the new technology of stereophonic television broadcasting, particularly multichannel television sound MTS , which allowed for a third audio channel, called the Second audio program Secondary Audio Program SAP . With a history of developing closed captioning of programs for Hearing impairment hearing impaired viewers, WGBH considered the viability of using the new audio channel for narrated descriptions of key visual elements, much like those being done for live theatre in Washington, D.C. , by Margaret Pfanstiehl, who had been experimenting with television description as part of her Metropolitan Washington Ear Washington Ear radio reading service. After reviewing and conducting various studies, which found that blind and visually impaired people were consuming more television than ever but finding the activity problematic often relying on sighted family and friends to describe for them , WGBH consulted more closely with Pfanstiehl and her husband, Cody, and then conducted its first tests of DVS in Boston in 1986. These tests broadcasting to local groups of people of various ages and visual impairments and further study were successful enough to merit a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to complete plans to establish the DVS organization permanently in 1988.

  1. Domain knowledge

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Domain knowledge is that valid knowledge used to refer to an area of human endeavour, an autonomous computer activity, or other specialized discipline. Domain expert Specialists and experts use and develop their own domain knowledge. If the concept domain knowledge or domain expert is used, we emphasize a specific domain which is an object of the discourse interest problem. Knowledge capture More particular, in software engineering , domain knowledge is knowledge about the environment in which the target system operates, for example, software agent s. Domain knowledge is important, because it usually must be learned from software users in the domain as domain specialists experts , rather than from software developers. Expert s domain knowledge frequently informal and ill structured is transformed in computer programs and active data, for example in a set of rules in knowledge bases, by knowledge engineer s. Communicating between end users and software developers is often difficult. They must find a common language to communicate in. Developing enough shared vocabulary to communicate can often take a while. The same knowledge can be included in different domain knowledge. Knowledge which may be efficient in every domain is called domain independent knowledge, for example logic s and mathematics. Operations on domain knowledge are performed by meta knowledge .

  1. Distributed knowledge

    Distributed knowledge is a term used in multi agent system research that refers to all the knowledge that a community of agents possesses and might apply in solving a problem. Distributed knowledge is approximately what a wise man knows or what someone who has complete knowledge of what each member of the communities knows. Distributed knowledge might also be called the aggregate knowledge of a community, as it represents all the knowledge that a community might bring to bear to solve a problem. Other related phrasings include cumulative knowledge, collective knowledge, pooled knowledge, or the wisdom of the crowd. Distributed knowledge is the union of all the knowledge of individuals in a community. Example The logicians Alice and Bob are sitting in their dark office wondering whether or not it is raining outside. Now, none of them actually knows, but Alice knows something about her friend Carol, namely that Carol wears her red coat only if it is raining. Bob does not know this, but he just saw Carol, and noticed that she was wearing her red coat. Even though none of them knows whether or not it is raining, it is distributed knowledge amongst them that it is raining. If either one of them tells the other what they know, it will be clear to the other that it is raining. If we denote by math varphi math that Carol wears a red coat and with math varphi Rightarrow psi math that if Carol wears a red coat, it is raining, we have math K b varphi land K a varphi Rightarrow psi Rightarrow D a,b psi math Directly translated Bob knows that Carol wears a red coat and Alice knows that if Carol wears a red coat it is raining so together they know that it is raining.

It is a recent addition to the Knowledge based theory of the firm knowledge based view of the firm . Encapsulated knowledge differs from both tacit knowledge and explicit knowledge . Encapsulated knowledge is not tacit because it resides outside of the human mind. It may also be distinguished from tacit knowledge in that it is a consequence of the application of tacit knowledge upon physical or material objects. It is also useful to distinguish encapsulated knowledge from explicit knowledge . Encapsulated knowledge is not precisely explicit, even though this term has generally been juxtaposed with tacit knowledge, because it is knowledge concealed from its users, and explicitness implies observability.

  1. Knowledge capital

    Unreferenced date October 2007 Knowledge capital is a concept which asserts that ideas have intrinsic value which can be shared and leveraged within and between organizations. Knowledge capital connotes that sharing skills and information is a means of sharing power. Knowledge capital is the know how that results from the experience, information, knowledge , learning, and skills of the employees or individual of an organization or group. Of all the factors of production, knowledge capital creates the longest lasting competitive advantage. It may consist entirely of technical information as in chemical and electronics industries or may reside in the actual experience or skills acquired by the individuals as in construction and steel industries . Knowledge capital is an essential component of human capital . Knowledge capital at large can be a strong vision, strategic information on market and business model, networks, talent, supply chain, innovation and creativity. There is also knowledge liability, the unknown concerning future business models, lack of knowledge on product service, on human potential, on governance and supply chain. The balance between knowledge capital and knowledge liability equals knowledge equity. Knowledge equity plus emotional equity equals immaterial value of the company goodwill .

  1. Dispersed knowledge

    refimprove date December 2009 In economics , dispersed knowledge , also known as partial knowledge , is information that is dispersed throughout the marketplace, and is not in the hands of any single agent. All agents in the market have imperfect knowledge however, they all have a good indicator of everyone else s knowledge and intentions, and that is the price . The price indicates information that the player does not know by deciding to buy, sell or abstain at that price it also gives the player a chance to bring their knowledge to bear and reflect itself in the price. Most of the knowledge, however, is tacit knowledge people usually are not fully aware of the knowledge that they are sharing via price signals, nor do they fully perceive the knowledge that they use when they make a price decision. When a buyer goes to market, the prices he or she finds therein for products and services have been set by the complex calculus that is the sum total of the tacit knowledge residing within the market. Price signal s are one possible solution to the economic calculation problem . This viewpoint is popular especially among Austrian School economists such as Friedrich Hayek . The problem is thus in no way solved if we can show that all the facts, if they were known to a single mind as we hypothetically assume them to be given to the observing economist , would uniquely determine the solution ... only partial knowledge.

  1. Knowledge modeling

    Knowledge modeling is a process of creating a computer interpretable model of knowledge or standard specifications about a kind of process and or about a kind of facility or product. The resulting knowledge model can only be computer interpretable when it is expressed in some knowledge representation language or data structure that enables the knowledge to be interpreted by software and to be stored in a database or data exchange file. br Knowledge based engineering or knowledge aided design is a process of computer aided usage of such knowledge models for the design of products, facilities or processes. The design of products or facilities then uses the knowledge model to guide the creation of the facility or product that need to be designed.

  1. Knowledge level

    In artificial intelligence, knowledge based agents draw on a pool of logical sentences to infer conclusions about the world . At the knowledge level , we only need to specify what the agent knows and what its goals are a logical abstraction separate from details of implementation. This notion of knowledge level was first introduced by Allen Newell in the 1980s, to have a way to rationalize an agent s behavior. The agent takes actions based on knowledge it possesses, in an attempt to reach specific goals. It chooses actions according to the principle of rationality . Beneath the knowledge level resides the symbol level . Whereas the knowledge level is world oriented, namely that it concerns the environment in which the agent operates, the symbol level is system oriented, in that it includes the mechanisms the agent has available to operate. The knowledge level rationalizes the agent s behavior, while the symbol level mechanizes the agent s behavior. For example, in a computer program, the knowledge level consists of the information contained in its data structures that it uses to perform certain actions. The symbol level consists of the program s algorithms, the data structures themselves, and so on. See also Knowledge level modeling knowledge relativity References T. Menzies.
