Improbable Creativity

چکیده
We begin with a number of basic facts about creativity and a brief history of the idea. These provide criteria that any definition of the term should meet and help guide us to a new definition of creativity. This definition is independent of cultural appropriateness or the perceived value of creative objects, ideas which have encumbered previous investigations. We briefly defend our definition against some plausible objections and then explore the ways in which this new definition differs from alternative views, by improving upon them.

Creativity in Translator Training: between the Possible, the Improbable and the (apparently) Impossible
The first part of this paper looks at how creativity has been explored in writings in the field of translation studies. It examines the stages in creative translation and investigates the creative process. The second part of the paper looks at how creativity can be exploited in the translation class by concentrating in particular on the liberating role of intralingual and interlingual paraphras...
متن کاملImprobable Differential from Impossible Differential: On the Validity of the Model
Differentials with low probability are used in improbable differential cryptanalysis to distinguish a cipher from a random permutation. Due to large diffusion, finding such differentials for actual ciphers remains a challenging task. At Indocrypt 2010, Tezcan proposed a method to derive improbable differential distinguishers from impossible differential ones. In this paper, we discuss the valid...
متن کاملDetection and Interpretation of Impossible and Improbable Coma Recovery Scale-Revised Scores.
OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency with which specific Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) subscale scores co-occur as a means of providing clinicians and researchers with an empirical method of assessing CRS-R data quality. DESIGN We retrospectively analyzed CRS-R subscale scores in hospital inpatients diagnosed with disorders of consciousness (DOCs) to identify impossible and improbable s...
متن کاملImprobable or impossible? How children reason about the possibility of extraordinary events.
The present study investigated the development of possibility-judgment strategies between the ages of 4 and 8. In Experiment 1, 48 children and 16 adults were asked whether a variety of extraordinary events could or could not occur in real life. Although children of all ages denied the possibility of events that adults also judged impossible, children frequently denied the possibility of events...
متن کاملThe Improbable Differential Attack: Cryptanalysis of Reduced Round CLEFIA
In this paper we present a new statistical cryptanalytic technique that we call improbable differential cryptanalysis which uses a differential that is less probable when the correct key is used. We provide data complexity estimates for this kind of attacks and we also show a method to expand impossible differentials to improbable differentials. By using this expansion method, we cryptanalyze 1...
