چکیده

Higman showed that if A is any language then SUBSEQ(A) is regular, where SUBSEQ(A) is the language of all subsequences of strings in A. We consider the following inductive inference problem: given A(ε), A(0), A(1), A(00), . . . learn, in the limit, a DFA for SUBSEQ(A). We consider this model of learning and the variants of it that are usually studied in inductive inference: anomalies, mindchanges, and teams.

Teaching-Learning approach in complexity paradigm

"Teaching-Learning Approach" is a model of interaction between teachers and students in an educational environment and one of the main components of the educational system. This model can be organized and designed on the basis of various opinions and ideas, including philosophical or scientific theories. This research aims to design and explain teaching-learning approach based on the complexity...

A new proof of a result of Higman

Given two strings x, y ∈ Σ∗, say that x is a subsequence of y (denoted x y) if x results from removing zero or more characters from y. For a language L ⊆ Σ∗, define SUBSEQ(L) to be the set of all subsequences of strings in L. We give a new proof of a result of Higman, which states, If L is any language over a finite alphabet, then SUBSEQ(L) is regular. Higman’s original proof makes use of the t...

The effect of language complexity and group size on knowledge construction: Implications for online learning

This  study  investigated  the  effect  of  language  complexity  and  group  size  on  knowledge construction in two online debates. Knowledge construction was assessed using Gunawardena et al.’s Interaction Analysis Model (1997). Language complexity was determined by dividing the  number  of  unique  words  by  total  words.  It  refers  to  the  lexical  variation.  The  results showed  that...

Different Task Complexity Factors and Cognitive Individual ‎Differences: The Effects on EFL Writers’ Performance

This study aimed at examining the main and interaction effects of increased intentional reasoning demands, planning time, and also language learning aptitude on syntactic complexity, accuracy, lexical complexity, and fluency (CALF) of 226 EFL learners’ performance on letter writing tasks. The participants were first randomly assigned to three experimental groups to be given a task with differin...

Chaos/Complexity Theory and Education

Sciences exist to demonstrate the fundamental order underlying nature. Chaos/complexity theory is a novel and amazing field of scientific inquiry. Notions of our everyday experiences are somehow in connection to the laws of nature through chaos/complexity theory’s concerns with the relationships between simplicity and complexity, between orderliness and randomness (Retrieved from http://www.inc...
