  2. Generalization (learning) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalization_(learning)

    Generalization is the concept that humans, other animals, and artificial neural networks use past learning in present situations of learning if the conditions in the situations are regarded as similar. [1] The learner uses generalized patterns, principles, and other similarities between past experiences and novel experiences to more efficiently ...

  3. Cartographic generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartographic_generalization

    Cartographic generalization, or map generalization, includes all changes in a map that are made when one derives a smaller-scale map from a larger-scale map or map data. It is a core part of cartographic design. Whether done manually by a cartographer or by a computer or set of algorithms, generalization seeks to abstract spatial information at ...

  4. Domain-general learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-general_learning

    Domain-general learning. Domain-general learning theories of development suggest that humans are born with mechanisms in the brain that exist to support and guide learning on a broad level, regardless of the type of information being learned. [1] [2] [3] Domain-general learning theories also recognize that although learning different types of ...

  5. Generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalization

    Cartographic generalization is the process of selecting and representing information of a map in a way that adapts to the scale of the display medium of the map. In this way, every map has, to some extent, been generalized to match the criteria of display. This includes small cartographic scale maps, which cannot convey every detail of the real ...

  6. Inductive reasoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_reasoning

    Inductive reasoning is any of various methods of reasoning in which broad generalizations or principles are derived from a body of observations. This article is concerned with the inductive reasoning other than deductive reasoning (such as mathematical induction), where the conclusion of a deductive argument is certain given the premises are correct; in contrast, the truth of the conclusion of ...

  7. Logical reasoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_reasoning

    Logical reasoning is a form of thinking that is concerned with arriving at a conclusion in a rigorous way. [1] This happens in the form of inferences by transforming the information present in a set of premises to reach a conclusion. [2] [3] It can be defined as "selecting and interpreting information from a given context, making connections ...

  8. Reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading

    Reading is the process of taking in the sense or meaning of letters, symbols, etc., especially by sight or touch.. For educators and researchers, reading is a multifaceted process involving such areas as word recognition, orthography (spelling), alphabetics, phonics, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, comprehension, fluency, and motivation.

  9. Simple view of reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_view_of_reading

    To be clear, all of this can be done while doing silent reading. The equation asserts the following: If students can decode (i.e. sound-out) the words accurately (so they make sense) and understand the meaning of those words, they will be able to understand the written words (i.e. reading comprehension).
