  2. Valence (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_(psychology)

    Valence is an inferred criterion from instinctively generated emotions; it is the property specifying whether feelings/affects are positive, negative or neutral. [2] The existence of at least temporarily unspecified valence is an issue for psychological researchers who reject the existence of neutral emotions (e.g. surprise , sublimation). [ 2 ]

  3. Abegg's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abegg's_rule

    In chemistry, Abegg's rule states that the difference between the maximum positive and negative valence of an element is frequently eight. The rule used a historic meaning of valence which resembles the modern concept of oxidation state in which an atom is an electron donor or receiver. Abegg's rule is sometimes referred to as "Abegg’s law of ...

  4. Cognitive valence theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_Valence_Theory

    Cognitive valence theory (CVT) is a theoretical framework that describes and explains the process of intimacy exchange within a dyad relationship.Peter A. Andersen, [who?] PhD created the cognitive valence theory to answer questions regarding intimacy relationships among colleagues, close friends and intimate friends, married couples and family members. [1]

  5. Emotion and memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotion_and_memory

    Negative encoding contexts have been correlated to activity in the right amygdala (Lewis & Critchley, 2003). However, Lewis and Critchley (2003) claim that it is not clear whether involvement of the emotional system in encoding memory differs for positive or negative emotions, or whether moods at recall lead to activity in the corresponding ...

  6. Fountain code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain_code

    In coding theory, fountain codes (also known as rateless erasure codes) are a class of erasure codes with the property that a potentially limitless sequence of encoding symbols can be generated from a given set of source symbols such that the original source symbols can ideally be recovered from any subset of the encoding symbols of size equal to or only slightly larger than the number of ...

  7. Dictionary coder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dictionary_coder

    A dictionary coder, also sometimes known as a substitution coder, is a class of lossless data compression algorithms which operate by searching for matches between the text to be compressed and a set of strings contained in a data structure (called the 'dictionary') maintained by the encoder.

  8. Encoding (semiotics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoding_(semiotics)

    Encoding, in semiotics, is the process of creating a message for transmission by an addresser to an addressee. The complementary process – interpreting a message received from an addresser – is called decoding .

  9. Slepian–Wolf coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slepian–Wolf_coding

    Distributed coding is the coding of two, in this case, or more dependent sources with separate encoders and a joint decoder.Given two statistically dependent independent and identically distributed finite-alphabet random sequences and , the Slepian–Wolf theorem gives a theoretical bound for the lossless coding rate for distributed coding of the two sources.
