  2. Jerome Bruner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerome_Bruner

    Jerome Seymour Bruner (October 1, 1915 – June 5, 2016) was an American psychologist who made significant contributions to human cognitive psychology and cognitive learning theory in educational psychology. Bruner was a senior research fellow at the New York University School of Law. [3]

  3. Concept learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concept_learning

    One model that incorporates the Bayesian theory of concept learning is the ACT-R model, developed by John R. Anderson. [citation needed] The ACT-R model is a programming language that defines the basic cognitive and perceptual operations that enable the human mind by producing a step-by-step simulation of human behavior. This theory exploits ...

  4. Perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perception

    Psychologist Jerome Bruner developed a model of perception, in which people put "together the information contained in" a target and a situation to form "perceptions of ourselves and others based on social categories." [11] [12] This model is composed of three states:

  5. Particle physics and representation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_physics_and...

    The two-dimensional "spin 1/2" representation of the Lie algebra so(3), for example, does not correspond to an ordinary (single-valued) representation of the group SO(3). (This fact is the origin of statements to the effect that "if you rotate the wave function of an electron by 360 degrees, you get the negative of the original wave function.")

  6. Representation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a representation is a very general relationship that expresses similarities (or equivalences) between mathematical objects or structures.Roughly speaking, a collection Y of mathematical objects may be said to represent another collection X of objects, provided that the properties and relationships existing among the representing objects y i conform, in some consistent way, to ...

  7. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Newton's laws are often stated in terms of point or particle masses, that is, bodies whose volume is negligible. This is a reasonable approximation for real bodies when the motion of internal parts can be neglected, and when the separation between bodies is much larger than the size of each.

  8. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    Since linear motion is a motion in a single dimension, the distance traveled by an object in particular direction is the same as displacement. [4] The SI unit of displacement is the metre . [ 5 ] [ 6 ] If x 1 {\displaystyle x_{1}} is the initial position of an object and x 2 {\displaystyle x_{2}} is the final position, then mathematically the ...

  9. Representational momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_momentum

    Representational Momentum has been studied using two types of displays: implied motion (left panel) and smooth animations (right panel). Implied events show a series of pictures that suggest a motion, but at a slow frame rate so there is no apparent motion.
