Méthode des tableauxvignette|200px|Représentation graphique d'un tableau propositionnel partiellement construit En théorie de la démonstration, les tableaux sémantiques sont une méthode de résolution du problème de la décision pour le calcul des propositions et les logiques apparentées, ainsi qu'une méthode de preuve pour la logique du premier ordre. La méthode des tableaux peut également déterminer la satisfiabilité des ensembles finis de formules de diverses logiques. C'est la méthode de preuve la plus populaire pour les logiques modales (Girle 2000).
Proof calculusIn mathematical logic, a proof calculus or a proof system is built to prove statements. A proof system includes the components: Language: The set L of formulas admitted by the system, for example, propositional logic or first-order logic. Rules of inference: List of rules that can be employed to prove theorems from axioms and theorems. Axioms: Formulas in L assumed to be valid. All theorems are derived from axioms. Usually a given proof calculus encompasses more than a single particular formal system, since many proof calculi are under-determined and can be used for radically different logics.
Psychology of reasoningThe psychology of reasoning (also known as the cognitive science of reasoning) is the study of how people reason, often broadly defined as the process of drawing conclusions to inform how people solve problems and make decisions. It overlaps with psychology, philosophy, linguistics, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, logic, and probability theory. Psychological experiments on how humans and other animals reason have been carried out for over 100 years. An enduring question is whether or not people have the capacity to be rational.
ZielA goal or objective is an idea of the future or desired result that a person or a group of people envision, plan and commit to achieve. People endeavour to reach goals within a finite time by setting deadlines. A goal is roughly similar to a purpose or aim, the anticipated result which guides reaction, or an end, which is an object, either a physical object or an abstract object, that has intrinsic value. Goal setting Goal-setting theory was formulated based on empirical research and has been called one of the most important theories in organizational psychology.
Lambda-calculLe lambda-calcul (ou λ-calcul) est un système formel inventé par Alonzo Church dans les années 1930, qui fonde les concepts de fonction et d'application. On y manipule des expressions appelées λ-expressions, où la lettre grecque λ est utilisée pour lier une variable. Par exemple, si M est une λ-expression, λx.M est aussi une λ-expression et représente la fonction qui à x associe M. Le λ-calcul a été le premier formalisme pour définir et caractériser les fonctions récursives : il a donc une grande importance dans la théorie de la calculabilité, à l'égal des machines de Turing et du modèle de Herbrand-Gödel.
Goal settingGoal setting involves the development of an action plan designed in order to motivate and guide a person or group toward a goal. Goals are more deliberate than desires and momentary intentions. Therefore, setting goals means that a person has committed thought, emotion, and behavior towards attaining the goal. In doing so, the goal setter has established a desired future state which differs from their current state thus creating a mismatch which in turn spurs future actions.
Typed lambda calculusA typed lambda calculus is a typed formalism that uses the lambda-symbol () to denote anonymous function abstraction. In this context, types are usually objects of a syntactic nature that are assigned to lambda terms; the exact nature of a type depends on the calculus considered (see kinds below). From a certain point of view, typed lambda calculi can be seen as refinements of the untyped lambda calculus, but from another point of view, they can also be considered the more fundamental theory and untyped lambda calculus a special case with only one type.
Deep inferenceDeep inference names a general idea in structural proof theory that breaks with the classical sequent calculus by generalising the notion of structure to permit inference to occur in contexts of high structural complexity. The term deep inference is generally reserved for proof calculi where the structural complexity is unbounded; in this article we will use non-shallow inference to refer to calculi that have structural complexity greater than the sequent calculus, but not unboundedly so, although this is not at present established terminology.
Substitution explicitevignette|M[s] est la notation d'une substitution explicite Un calcul de substitutions explicites est une extension du lambda-calcul dans lequel la substitution est intégrée au calcul au même titre que le sont l'abstraction ou l'application, alors que dans le lambda-calcul, la substitution fait partie de la métathéorie, c'est-à-dire qu'elle est définie en dehors de la théorie du lambda-calcul.
Démonstration automatique de théorèmesLa démonstration automatique de théorèmes (DAT) est l'activité d'un logiciel qui démontre une proposition qu'on lui soumet, sans l'aide de l'utilisateur. Les démonstrateurs automatiques de théorème ont résolu des conjectures intéressantes difficiles à établir, certaines ayant échappé aux mathématiciens pendant longtemps ; c'est le cas, par exemple, de la , démontrée en 1996 par le logiciel EQP.
