  2. Picture superiority effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_superiority_effect

    Allan Paivio's dual-coding theory is a basis of picture superiority effect. Paivio claims that pictures have advantages over words with regards to coding and retrieval of stored memory because pictures are coded more easily and can be retrieved from symbolic mode, while the dual coding process using words is more difficult for both coding and retrieval.

  3. Necessity and sufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necessity_and_sufficiency

    For example, in the conditional statement: "If P then Q", Q is necessary for P, because the truth of Q is guaranteed by the truth of P. (Equivalently, it is impossible to have P without Q , or the falsity of Q ensures the falsity of P .) [ 1 ] Similarly, P is sufficient for Q , because P being true always implies that Q is true, but P not being ...

  4. Logical consequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_consequence

    Logical consequence is necessary and formal, by way of examples that explain with formal proof and models of interpretation. [1] A sentence is said to be a logical consequence of a set of sentences, for a given language , if and only if , using only logic (i.e., without regard to any personal interpretations of the sentences) the sentence must ...

  5. Implicational propositional calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicational...

    Implication alone is not functionally complete as a logical operator because one cannot form all other two-valued truth functions from it.. For example, the two-place truth function that always returns false is not definable from → and arbitrary propositional variables: any formula constructed from → and propositional variables must receive the value true when all of its variables are ...

  6. Implication graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implication_graph

    In mathematical logic and graph theory, an implication graph is a skew-symmetric, directed graph G = (V, E) composed of vertex set V and directed edge set E. Each vertex in V represents the truth status of a Boolean literal, and each directed edge from vertex u to vertex v represents the material implication "If the literal u is true then the ...

  7. Ramification group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramification_group

    In other words, I w consists of the elements of the decomposition group that act trivially on the residue field of w. It is a normal subgroup of G w. The reduced ramification index e(w/v) is independent of w and is denoted e(v). Similarly, the relative degree f(w/v) is also independent of w and is denoted f(v).

  9. Implication (information science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implication_(information...

    A set C of attributes is a concept intent if and only if C respects all valid implications. The system of all valid implications therefore suffices for constructing the closure system of all concept intents and thereby the concept hierarchy. The system of all valid implications of a formal context is closed under the natural inference.
