From Machine Learning To Human Learning: What Can Pedagogy Learn From Ai Successes, Victor L. Timchenko, Yury P. Kondratenko, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich Mar 2025

From Machine Learning To Human Learning: What Can Pedagogy Learn From Ai Successes, Victor L. Timchenko, Yury P. Kondratenko, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich

Departmental Technical Reports (CS)

Many machine learning techniques -- including many techniques behind the current AI-based boom in machine learning -- come from the analysis of successful human learning strategies (and researchers expect that other human learning experiences can lead to even more effective AI-based systems). At this moment, so much experience have been accumulated in AI-based machine learning that it is time to start the analysis in the opposite direction -- to see what can human-based pedagogy learn from AI successes. In this chapter, we provide the first results of such an analysis -- some of which go somewhat against the current pedagogical …

Gurevich's Quizani Dialogs As An Example Of Explainable Mathematics, And How This Is Related To Quantum Space-Time Ideas That Can Speed Up Computations, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich Mar 2025

Gurevich's Quizani Dialogs As An Example Of Explainable Mathematics, And How This Is Related To Quantum Space-Time Ideas That Can Speed Up Computations, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich

Departmental Technical Reports (CS)

Everyone talks about the need for Explainable AI -- when, to supplement a long difficult-to-understand sequence of computational steps leading to AI's decision, we are looking for a shorter and understandable more-informal explanation for this decision. In this paper, we argue that this need is a particular case of what we call Explainable Mathematics -- when we want to supplement a long sequence of arguments and/or computations with a shorter and understandable more-informal explanation. Important instances of Explainable Mathematics are Yuri Gurevich's Quizani dialogs that help explain complex results from theoretical computer science and physicists' more-informal explanations of complex physical …

Unfortunately, The Universal Predictor Cannot Be Made Constructive, Julio C. Urenda, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich Mar 2025

Unfortunately, The Universal Predictor Cannot Be Made Constructive, Julio C. Urenda, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich

Departmental Technical Reports (CS)

A recent article in the Notices of the American Mathematical Society reminded the mathematics community that, under the Axiom of Choice, it is possible to have a universal predictor: if we input, into this predictor, the values of a function for all moments t < to for some to, then, for almost all to, this predictor correctly predicts the next values of this function on some interval [to, to + ε). This predictor cannot be used for actual predictions: it is based on the Axiom of Choice and is, therefore, not constructive. A natural question is: maybe it is possible to have another universal predictor, which is constructive? In this paper we show that, unfortunately, it is not possible to have a constructive universal predictor. In other words, the above universal predictor result cannot be used for actual predictions.

Language Processing: The Precedence Of Neural Networks On The Account Of Hidden Markov Models, Dia Eddin Abuzeina Mar 2025

Language Processing: The Precedence Of Neural Networks On The Account Of Hidden Markov Models, Dia Eddin Abuzeina

An-Najah University Journal for Research - B (Humanities)

Background: since its discovery at the beginning of the last century, Markov models gain a great popularity, and have been widely used in different domains. However, the most prominent use was in computational linguistics, or what is known as natural language processing (NLP). Abstractly, Markov models are nothing but a statistical representation of a particular system. The mathematical statistical representation of a given system is the heart of Markov theory. Markov models characterized by solid mathematical representation, which significantly promotes using it. No doubt, Markov models are mainly used in prediction and classification, to serve computational linguistics as well as …

Using Stable Isotope Analysis To Investigate The Trophic Ecology Of Aquatic Insects, Shelby Ann Medlock Mar 2025

Using Stable Isotope Analysis To Investigate The Trophic Ecology Of Aquatic Insects, Shelby Ann Medlock

Master's Theses

Despite their abundance on the landscape, ponds and associated macroinvertebrate assemblages have largely been underrepresented in scientific studies, which usually focus on lakes or streams. Similar to other waterbodies, ponds can harbor high levels of invertebrate biodiversity, which is important as aquatic insects are experiencing declines due to habitat destruction, pollution, climate change, and invasive species introductions. To evaluate how these threats impact pond insects and the ecosystem services they may provide, a thorough understanding of their ecology is essential. However, significant knowledge gaps remain, especially regarding trophic levels and species-specific diets. To address these knowledge gaps, I used carbon …

(Si14-03) Time Proportional Non-Instantaneous Deterioration Decisions For Vendor Managed Inventory System, Hetal Patel, Hardik Soni, Ajay Gor Mar 2025

(Si14-03) Time Proportional Non-Instantaneous Deterioration Decisions For Vendor Managed Inventory System, Hetal Patel, Hardik Soni, Ajay Gor

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This article formulates a model for optimizing inventory replenishment decisions for the products that experience non-instantaneous deterioration by allowing partial backlogging. Two-level supply chain (SC) is considered in vendor-managed inventory (VMI) model which contains ‘single-retailer and single-supplier’ for studying the performance. The model considers two constant demand rates which differ from others when deterioration in the product commences. In addition, the general function of time is considered for deterioration rate. Theoretical results are derived to compute the replenishment cycle length. Lastly, the benefit of VMI policy is illustrated through numerical examples. Further, explanation of some features of the VMI model …

(Si14-12) Some Novel Fractional Discrete Inequalities Of Gronwall-Bellman Type And Their Applications To Fractional Difference Equations, Subhash Kendre, Nagesh Kale, Dimplekumar Chalishajar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this study, we develop multiple power nonlinear generalizations of Gronwall-Bellman type fractional discrete inequalities and fractional sum inequalities through combining functions with powered unknown functions.We have employed technique of reducing power non-linearity into linearity to furnish these refinements. These novel findings present a broader framework for dealing with wider range of nonlinear fractional difference equations and fractional sum-difference equations. The utilization of these inequalities enables to study certain crucial classes of fractional difference equations that arise in the realm of fractional difference calculus, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Several illustrations are provided to examine the boundedness of initial value problems …
