Btw... is it true that the Bekenstein Bound refutes any possibility of analog computation in this universe? | |

| Jan 6, 2012 at 13:22 | comment | added | Velvet Ghost | Thanks a lot for that very informative reply. To be honest, my only acquaintance with hypercomputation is through Siegelmann's work on the computational power of neural nets back in the mid 1990's - and her proof that a particular neural net (the analog recurrent NN) is hypercomputational. The key to it's hypercomputational power is it's analog nature - it can have weights which are REAL numbers. So I was referring to the subfield of hypercomputation known as Real Computation. | |
