  2. Word problem for groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_for_groups

    Then the word problem in is solvable: given two words , in the generators of , write them as words in and compare them using the solution to the word problem in . It is easy to think that this demonstrates a uniform solution of the word problem for the class K {\displaystyle K} (say) of finitely generated groups that can be embedded in G ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_(mathematics)

    The word problem for an algebra is then to determine, given two expressions (words) involving the generators and operations, whether they represent the same element of the algebra modulo the identities. The word problems for groups and semigroups can be phrased as word problems for algebras. [1]

  4. Word problem (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_(mathematics...

    Word problem from the Līlāvatī (12th century), with its English translation and solution. In science education, a word problem is a mathematical exercise (such as in a textbook, worksheet, or exam) where significant background information on the problem is presented in ordinary language rather than in mathematical notation.

    John Pollock's OSCAR system [2] is an example of an automated argumentation system that is more specific than being just an automated theorem prover. Tools and techniques of automated reasoning include the classical logics and calculi, fuzzy logic , Bayesian inference , reasoning with maximal entropy and many less formal ad hoc techniques.

    with the goal of tabulating the values p(0), p(1), p(2), p(3), p(4), and so forth. The table below is constructed as follows: the second column contains the values of the polynomial, the third column contains the differences of the two left neighbors in the second column, and the fourth column contains the differences of the two neighbors in ...

  8. Answer set programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answer_set_programming

    An early example of answer set programming was the planning method proposed in 1997 by Dimopoulos, Nebel and Köhler. [3] [4] Their approach is based on the relationship between plans and stable models. [5] In 1998 Soininen and Niemelä [6] applied what is now known as answer set programming to the problem of product configuration. [4]

  9. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Each packing problem has a dual covering problem, which asks how many of the same objects are required to completely cover every region of the container, where objects are allowed to overlap. In a bin packing problem, people are given: A container, usually a two- or three-dimensional convex region, possibly of infinite size. Multiple containers ...
