  2. Transfer of learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_of_learning

    Although the theory is that the similarity of elements facilitates transfer, there is a challenge in identifying which specific elements had an effect on the learner at the time of learning. Factors that can affect transfer include: Context and degree of original learning: how well the learner acquired the knowledge.

    Three sets involved[edit] In the left hand sides of the following identities, L{\displaystyle L}is the L eft most set, M{\displaystyle M}is the M iddle set, and R{\displaystyle R}is the R ight most set. Precedence rules. There is no universal agreement on the order of precedenceof the basic set operators.

  4. Scientific method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_method

    The scientific method is an empirical method for acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of science since at least the 17th century. (For notable practitioners in previous centuries, see history of scientific method .) The scientific method involves careful observation coupled with rigorous scepticism, because cognitive ...

  5. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_(set_theory)

    In set theory, the union (denoted by ∪) of a collection of sets is the set of all elements in the collection. [1] It is one of the fundamental operations through which sets can be combined and related to each other. A nullary union refers to a union of zero ( ) sets and it is by definition equal to the empty set.

  6. Convolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolution

    The term convolution refers to both the result function and to the process of computing it. It is defined as the integral of the product of the two functions after one is reflected about the y-axis and shifted. The integral is evaluated for all values of shift, producing the convolution function.

  7. Multiverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse

    The multiverse is the hypothetical set of all universes. [a] Together, these universes are presumed to comprise everything that exists: the entirety of space, time, matter, energy, information, and the physical laws and constants that describe them. The different universes within the multiverse are called "parallel universes", "flat universes ...

  8. Statistical learning theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_learning_theory

    Statistical learning theory is a framework for machine learning drawing from the fields of statistics and functional analysis. [1] [2] [3] Statistical learning theory deals with the statistical inference problem of finding a predictive function based on data.

  9. Law of identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_identity

    Identity is a relation on individuals. It is not a relation between propositions, and is not concerned with the meaning of propositions, nor with equivocation. The law of identity can be expressed as , where x is a variable ranging over the domain of all individuals. In logic, there are various different ways identity can be handled.
