Sinossi
Excerpt from Investigations in the Theory of Descriptive Complexity
In terms of each of the three above approaches a random or patternless string 5 is defined as one whose shortest program is of length essentially equal to it self. Intuitively, if a string contains some pattern then that pattern can be exploited by the computer in outputting the string. However, if a string 5 is genuinely patternless the shortest program for outputting it might consist of inputting s and instructing the computer to output its input.
Chapter 1. Will present most of the fundamental notations, definitions and results developed for the most part by others which are relevant to our work.

Print on DemandDa: Forgotten Books, London, Regno Unito
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating concept of 'descriptive complexity' in computer science. The author presents various formulations of the notion of descriptive complexity, seeking to define and measure the randomness of infinite binary strings. The book considers how the complexity of a program might change when given more information about the object it operates on, such as its length. A key question is whether there exist truly random sequences or if all sequences can be described using some finite program. This question is explored through a 'subrecursive formulation' which places restrictions on the functions which can be computed. The author ultimately concludes that truly random sequences do exist and that they cannot be described using any finite program. This book will appeal to computer scientists, mathematicians, and anyone interested in the foundations of computing and information theory. Its insights into the nature of randomness and complexity provide valuable contributions to our understanding of these fundamental concepts.
