Probabilistic limit identification up to “small” sets
1996
In this paper we study limit identification of total recursive functions in the case when “small” sets of errors are allowed. Here the notion of “small” sets we formalize in a very general way, i.e. we define a notion of measure for subsets of natural numbers, and we consider as being small those sets, which are subsets of sets with zero measure.
General inductive inference types based on linearly-ordered sets
1996
In this paper, we reconsider the definitions of procrastinating learning machines. In the original definition of Freivalds and Smith [FS93], constructive ordinals are used to bound mindchanges. We investigate the possibility of using arbitrary linearly ordered sets to bound mindchanges in a similar way. It turns out that using certain ordered sets it is possible to define inductive inference types more general than the previously known ones. We investigate properties of the new inductive inference types and compare them to other types.
Learning with confidence
1996
Herein we investigate learning in the limit where confidence in the current conjecture accrues with time. Confidence levels are given by rational numbers between 0 and 1. The traditional requirement that for learning in the limit is that a device must converge (in the limit) to a correct answer. We further demand that the associated confidence in the answer (monotonically) approach 1 in the limit. In addition to being a more realistic model of learning, our new notion turns out to be a more powerful as well. In addition, we give precise characterizations of the classes of functions that are learnable in our new model(s).
Minimal nontrivial space complexity of probabilistic one- way turing machines
2005
Languages recognizable in o(log log n) space by probabilistic one — way Turing machines are proved to be regular. This solves an open problem in [4].
The Discursive Construction of European Identity: Stylistic Analysis of "Text in Context"
2010
The Draft Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe submitted to the European Council meeting in Thessaloniki on June 2003 was intended to repeal by a single instrument all the existing European treaties (about 16 Treaties enacted between 1951-ECSC Treaty and 2001-Treaty of Nice, with the exception of the Euratom Treaty). Indeed, the ratification by all the Member States of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe was necessary in order to enter it into force. Because of the difficulties and problems faced in ratifying the Treaty, the European Council decided in 2005 to start a ‘period of reflection’ on the future of the European Union. In particular, at the European Council me…
Voicing the child? A case study in Finnish early childhood education
2013
Contemporary Nordic early childhood education and care takes as its starting point the individual and ‘competent’ child and emphasizes the aim to take account of children’s views. It is also common in educational settings that the child’s views are documented and thus transformed into contexts in which they are discussed between the adults. In light of a case study of 22 parent–teacher meetings in Finnish early childhood education and care the article discusses the position of the child’s voice in this context. The theoretical framework is based on a relational view of childhood and the child’s voice, on theories of face-to-face and institutional interaction and on discursive psychology. T…
One Rule to Rule Them All? Organisational Sensemaking of Corporate Responsibility
2015
Corporate responsibility (CR) has often been criticised as a decoupled organisational phenomenon: a publicly espoused rule that is not followed in daily organisational practices. We argue that a crucial reason for this criticism arises from the dominant in-house assumption of CR literature, which mitigates tensions and contradictions in organisational life by claiming that integrated rules result in coupled practices. We aim to provide new insights by problematising this in-house assumption and by examining how members of two organisations discursively make sense of CR, as a daily rule-bound practice, via three strategies: integration, differentiation and fragmentation. We elaborate the con…
Proximités et médiations à travers deux romans francophones : "Les Nuits de Strasbourg" (1997) de Djebar et "Le Village de l’Allemand ou le journal d…
2021
International audience; Cette communication porte sur différentes proximités et médiations à travers deux romans francophones, "Les Nuits de Strasbourg" (1997) d'Assia Djebar et "Le Village de l'Allemand ou le journal des frères Schiller" (2008) de Boualem Sansal. La première partie traite de la posture (Meizoz) ou de l'image de ces auteurs dans le champ littéraire (Bourdieu, Casanova), telle que médiée par ces ouvrages. Ensuite, nous nous intéresserons à la mémoire multidirectionnelle (Rothberg) dans ces romans car l'intertextualité et l'intermédialité médient des proximités mémorielles et interculturelles. Enfin, la lecture sera considérée comme une potentielle médiation du réel.
Catalan words avoiding pairs of length three patterns
2021
Catalan words are particular growth-restricted words counted by the eponymous integer sequence. In this article we consider Catalan words avoiding a pair of patterns of length 3, pursuing the recent initiating work of the first and last authors and of S. Kirgizov where (among other things) the enumeration of Catalan words avoiding a patterns of length 3 is completed. More precisely, we explore systematically the structural properties of the sets of words under consideration and give enumerating results by means of recursive decomposition, constructive bijections or bivariate generating functions with respect to the length and descent number. Some of the obtained enumerating sequences are kn…
Kreowanie obrazu homoseksualizmu w tygodniku ,,Gazeta Polska”
2022
Celem artykułu jest pokazanie, jaki obraz homoseksualności oraz osób homoseksualnych funkcjonuje współcześnie w konserwatywnym tygodniku ,,Gazeta Polska”. Analiza oparta jest na artykułach opublikowanych od stycznia do maja 2021 r. Autorka bierze pod uwagę artykuły zarówno o osobach homoseksualnych, jak i ogólnie o mniejszości LGBT+, gdyż dziennikarze ,,Gazety Polskiej” często nie używają rozróżnienia pomiędzy tymi mniejszościami. W artykule opisuje się leksykę, której dziennikarze tygodnika używają wobec osób homoseksualnych, sposób zapisu (np. cudzysłów), kontekst, w jakim pojawia się temat mniejszości seksualnych oraz strategie perswazji, których używa się, by kreować negatywny obraz hom…
