Book Synopsis Arrow of Time and Reality by : Anne Magnon
Download or read book Arrow of Time and Reality written by Anne Magnon and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1997 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Reality? What is the role of human consciousness in the shaping of such a concept? These questions are as old as mankind and gave rise to the MIND-MATTER dualism which preoccupied so many physicists: Schrödinger, Wigner, etc. This book considers the problem within the realm of contemporary physics, and shows that it could be related to that of ultimate entities. The author develops the viewpoint according to which human thinking activities are fruit of the Cosmos and of its combinatorial activity. Ultimate entities, the bricks out of which our universe is made, could be hidden, as a primordial alphabet, in the foundations of the pyramid of increasing complexity, which seems to unfold as a language and to culminate in the emergence of organized and thinking structures. This is analyzed in the context of cosmological screening and horizons (an expression of our lack of access to totality) where macroscopic and microscopic can mingle, where a unification of interactions and a matching of available arrows of time can take place. This context is also that of quantum evaporation of particle-antiparticle like entities, which triggers entropy increase, and of the overlap between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. The problem of an (global) origin of the cruising (and evanescent) “Now” is considered. A creative principle (reminiscent of the biological mitosis) is also presented which is the generator of the “event” through breaking of temporal symmetry. In this perspective, time-flow is an emergent concept: Creation of the World is declined priority on the concept of “coming into existence”. Participant to the origin of the World, all (possibly virtual) processes are able to culminate into the phenomenon of consciousness and Self-Awareness.

Book Synopsis Computing with Words by : Paul P. Wang
Download or read book Computing with Words written by Paul P. Wang and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 2001 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fuzzy logic refers to a computer's ability to make decisions involving "grey" or "fuzzy" areas. As linguistics contains numerous "grey" areas, computing with words through the use of fuzzy logic is an extremely hot topic in database and Internet research. This book explores the state of the art in linguistic computation, discussing how current research findings are extending the application of fuzzy logic beyond control engineering and intelligent systems into the use of language on a computer. Fuzzy logic pioneer, Dr. Lofti Zadeh, provides the introduction for this thought-provoking work.

Book Synopsis Computational Verb Theory by : Tao Yang
Download or read book Computational Verb Theory written by Tao Yang and published by Yang's Scientific Research Institute. This book was released on 2002 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational verb theory (CV) was invented by Tao Yang in 1997 in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of California at Berkeley. Since then, CV has been growing up into a multidisciplinary scientific field attracting attentions of researchers from information sciences, linguistics, biology, psychology, physics and computer sciences. Pushed far beyond fuzzy theory, CV is the first step towards building a complete artificial language into machines. The ultimate goal of CV is to building dynamic irrational intelligence into machines. CV also bridges the gap between physics and linguistics to give birth to a measurable linguistics; namely, physical linguistics. In physical linguistics, many classical linguistic problems such as verb classification and telicity in verbs were studied from an entirely new standpoint. Surprisingly, the bifurcation theory of dynamic systems leads to solid and precise solutions to many linguistic problems such as verb categorizing tests and verb ambiguity. CV also provides a platform of solving engineering problems based on dynamic experiences in the form of verb if-then rules. Such engineering applications include verb controllers, verb prediction and verb image processing. Written by the founding father of CV, this is a lucid, solid and timely monograph for professionals, scientists, academic researchers and students in information sciences, linguistics, fuzzy logic, computer sciences and control engineering.

Download or read book The Janus Point written by Julian Barbour and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a universe filled by chaos and disorder, one physicist makes the radical argument that the growth of order drives the passage of time -- and shapes the destiny of the universe. Time is among the universe's greatest mysteries. Why, when most laws of physics allow for it to flow forward and backward, does it only go forward? Physicists have long appealed to the second law of thermodynamics, held to predict the increase of disorder in the universe, to explain this. In The Janus Point, physicist Julian Barbour argues that the second law has been misapplied and that the growth of order determines how we experience time. In his view, the big bang becomes the "Janus point," a moment of minimal order from which time could flow, and order increase, in two directions. The Janus Point has remarkable implications: while most physicists predict that the universe will become mired in disorder, Barbour sees the possibility that order -- the stuff of life -- can grow without bound. A major new work of physics, The Janus Point will transform our understanding of the nature of existence.
Download or read book The Book of Why written by Judea Pearl and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Turing Award-winning computer scientist and statistician shows how understanding causality has revolutionized science and will revolutionize artificial intelligence "Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality -- the study of cause and effect -- on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of Why.
