  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. Universal law of generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Universal_law_of_generalization

    The universal law of generalization is a theory of cognition stating that the probability of a response to one stimulus being generalized to another is a function of the “distance” between the two stimuli in a psychological space. It was introduced in 1987 by Roger N. Shepard, [1] [2] who began researching mechanisms of generalization while ...

  4. Generalizability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalizability_theory

    Generalizability theory. Generalizability theory, or G theory, is a statistical framework for conceptualizing, investigating, and designing reliable observations. It is used to determine the reliability (i.e., reproducibility) of measurements under specific conditions. It is particularly useful for assessing the reliability of performance ...

  5. Vapnik–Chervonenkis theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapnik–Chervonenkis_theory

    Theory of constructing learning machines How can one construct algorithms that can control the generalization ability? VC Theory is a major subbranch of statistical learning theory. One of its main applications in statistical learning theory is to provide generalization conditions for learning algorithms.

  6. Generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalization

    A generalization is a form of abstraction whereby common properties of specific instances are formulated as general concepts or claims. [1] Generalizations posit the existence of a domain or set of elements, as well as one or more common characteristics shared by those elements (thus creating a conceptual model ).

  7. Universal generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_generalization

    Universal generalization / instantiation. Existential generalization / instantiation. In predicate logic, generalization (also universal generalization, universal introduction, [1][2][3] GEN, UG) is a valid inference rule. It states that if has been derived, then can be derived.

  8. General relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_relativity

    General relativity, also known as the general theory of relativity, and as Einstein's theory of gravity, is the geometric theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in 1915 and is the current description of gravitation in modern physics. General relativity generalizes special relativity and refines Newton's law of universal gravitation ...

  9. Probably approximately correct learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probably_approximately...

    e. In computational learning theory, probably approximately correct (PAC) learning is a framework for mathematical analysis of machine learning. It was proposed in 1984 by Leslie Valiant. [1] In this framework, the learner receives samples and must select a generalization function (called the hypothesis) from a certain class of possible functions.
