A common assumption of theories of memory is that the meaning of a word can be represented by a vector which places a word as a point in a multidimensional semantic space (e.g. Landauer & Dumais, 1997; Burgess & Lund, 2000; Osgood, Suci, & Tannenbaum, 1957). Representing words as vectors in a multidimensional space allows simple geometric operations such as the Euclidian distance or the angle b...

Abstract We discuss the Monge problem of mass transportation in framework stochastic thermodynamics and revisit Landauer limit for finite-time thermodynamics, a that got interest Krzysztof Gawedzki last years. show restricted to one dimension, optimal is efficiently solved numerically by well-known methods from differential equations. add brief discussion about relevance this has on optimising ...

NHERITED skeletal abnormalities which may be, and have been, classifiei I fundamentally as the result of disproportionate reduction of localized parts manifest a wide range of species patterns with respect to the degree and location of effect upon the skull and limbs, and in some cases the vertebrae. When homozygous these abnormalities are lethal at a relatively early age in the most severely a...

Abstract We study the problem of energetic cost information erasure by looking at it through lens Jarzynski equality. observe that Landauer bound, $$\langle W \rangle \ge kT \ln 2$$ ? W ? ? k T ln 2</m...
