https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal%20ethics | Formal ethics is a formal logical system for describing and evaluating the "form" as opposed to the "content" of ethical principles. Formal ethics was introduced by Harry J. Gensler, in part in his 1990 logic textbook Symbolic Logic: Classical and Advanced Systems, but was more fully developed and justified in his 199... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci%20numbers%20in%20popular%20culture | The Fibonacci numbers are a sequence of integers, starting with 0, 1 and continuing 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, ..., each new number being the sum of the previous two. The Fibonacci numbers, often presented in conjunction with the golden ratio, are a popular theme in culture. They have been mentioned in novels, films, televisio... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical%20counter | Mechanical counters are digital counters built using mechanical components. Long before electronics became common, mechanical devices were used to count events. They typically consist of a series of disks mounted on an axle, with the digits zero through nine marked on their edge. The right most disk moves one increment... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List%20of%20systems%20biology%20modeling%20software | Systems biology relies heavily on building mathematical models to help understand and make predictions of biological processes. Specialized software to assist in building models has been developed since the arrival of the first digital computers. The following list gives the currently supported software applications av... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submodular%20set%20function | In mathematics, a submodular set function (also known as a submodular function) is a set function that, informally, describes the relationship between a set of inputs and an output, where adding more of one input has a decreasing additional benefit (diminishing returns). The natural diminishing returns property which m... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirality | Chirality is a property of asymmetry important in several branches of science. The word chirality is derived from the Greek (kheir), "hand", a familiar chiral object.
An object or a system is chiral if it is distinguishable from its mirror image; that is, it cannot be superimposed onto it. Conversely, a mirror imag... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadows%20of%20the%20Mind | Shadows of the Mind: A Search for the Missing Science of Consciousness is a 1994 book by mathematical physicist Roger Penrose that serves as a followup to his 1989 book The Emperor's New Mind: Concerning Computers, Minds and The Laws of Physics.
Penrose hypothesizes that:
Human consciousness is non-algorithmic, and t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erd%C5%91s%E2%80%93Tur%C3%A1n%20inequality | In mathematics, the Erdős–Turán inequality bounds the distance between a probability measure on the circle and the Lebesgue measure, in terms of Fourier coefficients. It was proved by Paul Erdős and Pál Turán in 1948.
Let μ be a probability measure on the unit circle R/Z. The Erdős–Turán inequality states that, for an... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fecal%20vomiting | Fecal vomiting or copremesis is a kind of vomiting wherein the material vomited is of fecal origin. It is a common symptom of gastrojejunocolic fistula and intestinal obstruction in the ileum. Fecal vomiting is often accompanied by gastrointestinal symptoms, including abdominal pain, abdominal distension, dehydration, ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse%20element%20method | In numerical analysis the diffuse element method (DEM) or simply diffuse approximation is a meshfree method.
The diffuse element method was developed by B. Nayroles, G. Touzot and Pierre Villon at the Universite de Technologie de Compiegne, in 1992.
It is in concept rather similar to the much older smoothed particle h... |
