Complexity classes

NL (complexity)

In computational complexity theory, NL (Nondeterministic Logarithmic-space) is the complexity class containing decision problems that can be solved by a nondeterministic Turing machine using a logarithmic amount of memory space. NL is a generalization of L, the class for logspace problems on a deterministic Turing machine. Since any deterministic Turing machine is also a nondeterministic Turing machine, we have that L is contained in NL. NL can be formally defined in terms of the computational resource nondeterministic space (or NSPACE) as NL = NSPACE(log n). Important results in complexity theory allow us to relate this complexity class with other classes, telling us about the relative power of the resources involved. Results in the field of algorithms, on the other hand, tell us which problems can be solved with this resource. Like much of complexity theory, many important questions about NL are still open (see Unsolved problems in computer science). Occasionally NL is referred to as RL due to its below; however, this name is more frequently used to refer to randomized logarithmic space, which is not known to equal NL. (Wikipedia).

The chaotic complexity of natural numbers | Data structures in Mathematics Math Foundations 175

This is a sobering and perhaps disorienting introduction to the fact that arithmetic with bigger numbers starts to look quite different from the familiar arithmetic that we do with the small numbers we are used to. The notion of complexity is key in our treatment of this. We talk about bot

Upper Bounds in Integer Complexity-CTNT 2020

Define ||n|| to be the complexity of n, which is the smallest number of 1s needed to write n using an arbitrary combination of addition and multiplication. For example, 6=(1+1)(1+1+1) shows that ||6|| is at most 5. We discuss recent results concerning upper and lower bounds for ||n||

Part of the NLTK Corpora is WordNet. I wouldn't totally classify WordNet as a Corpora, if anything it is really a giant Lexicon, but, either way, it is super useful. With WordNet we can do things like look up words and their meaning according to their parts of speech, we can find synonyms,
