The mathematical expression, P != NP, is one of the seven millennium
problems that even to this day has never been solved. The P vs
NP is a mathematical problem that inquires if a computer has the ability to verify the
solution of a problem, does it has also the capability to quickly solve
the problem without undergoing into a series of data gathering. The author was intrigued in solving this problem due to the reason it can provide a clue on how to create a self conscious robot.
A good example of this PNP problem is finding a particular person on a list of names. Man and computer have the ability to easily locate a given name on a
database. However, man and computer have no capability to quickly
find the same name without scanning every name on given list. The ability to easily locate is the P statement, while the
no capability to quickly find is the NP statement.
Is there a solution to the NP problem? Can the NP problem be solved? This article will attempt to provide some meaningful solutions to the problem based on the principles behind I.M., the study on the development of
algorithms and smart materials needed to produce a self conscious robot.
According to Information Materialization, P is not equal to NP. The conclusion is supported by the following theories commonly know as the Principle of the Four Causes.
a) The Caveman in the Box Theory
b) The One-to-one correspondence Label
c) The Scriptional Jump
d) The Algorithm of Queue
Based on the
Caveman in the Box, Nature is the container or
storage of information. Mother Nature is the keeper of all objects that we see, hear, touch, smell, and taste. She is the holder of the
universal list that contains the database of all living and
non-living things. Objects like plants, birds, fish,
elements, rocks, etc, are inherent information. Even their actions, shapes, movements, behaviors, features are also pieces of
information that can be inlearned, copied, or acquired by the same
humans, animals, and plants. They are the original sources of
information. Nature is the Mother of all
Information..
Information can only be acquired in two and only two ways: by
choice and by chance. By Choice means information can be obtained from parents, teachers, books, schools, friends, lessons from animals or from nature, while By Chance means information can come from discovering new things, fortunate accidents, unexpected experiences, unknown events or nature's interventions. Whatever the case, the bottom line is every piece of information can be acquired or borrowed originally from one's environment.Humans, animals, plants, and the environment are individually pieces of information.
Information flows only in one direction - from the inherent
world to the interim mind, from outside to inside, from physical to abstract. This one way principle is sometimes called the
Scription Jump. As
one of the signature theories of Originemology, it. is concerned
with the following ingenuous questions: (i) Can I think of something
without associating it with a physical object? If I think of an idea, is
the idea real without a physical object associated to it? (ii) When does an abstract idea become physically real?
Is the idea of the letter "I" real when I write it on a piece of paper?
If so, how does this abstract figure become a physical reality without
being naturally inherent? (iii) How does my letter I "jumps" from
abstract to physical?
Like the ideas of Zero and One, both are abstract concepts. They only
exist in the mind by assumption. Mathematically, both words are called
numerals by definition. When Zero is represented with the symbol 0 and
One with 1, technically the words become numbers by association. Numbers
are the assumed physical representations of the abstract numerals. By
symbolic representation, both digits now exist materially outside the
mind - the physical world; the world outside of ourselves, the inherent
world that exists long time independently before the mind existed.
However, although 0 & 1 are created by
definition, association,
representation and assumption, can we now really consider these numbers
as concrete objects or physical solid materials? If I write 0 and 1 on a
paper, are they now materially or physically real? Can we consider the
written numbers proof of their reality or existence? Can the numbers now
be considered solid evidence and be accepted as real? How can we
validate the paper evidence to be true, false, valid, or real? Are the
numbers really existing or are they still abstract, imaginary or
imagined?
Humans can learn things through the
process known as
one to one correspondence. This
is accomplish through association, definition, representation, assumption or tagging, a method collectively called
Labeling. We call a fruit an apple by definition, association, representation
or by labeling. However, the apple can be changed to orange or pineapple depending on
the rule of the majority. If the majority accepts that the apple should be named orange, then the majority wins.
When an object
acquires, codifies, stores, retrieves and processes
information, the object is perceived as an intelligent entity. Humans,
although notorious as short-term thinkers, are believed to be
intelligent because they possess these five basic functions. However,
bacteria, algae, fungi, plants, animals and other natural objects like
rocks, air, water are constantly experiencing some of these functions as
well. These non-living objects embrace at least one of these five basic
functions and some man-made objects like computers and robots are
functioning artificially intelligent as well.
In order for a computer to execute NP it has to subscribe on five basic requirements:
First, a vast
cache of information must be ready to be "read".
Second, the more complex a system becomes, the more materials and information are needed.
Third, the complexity of a system depends on the availability of materials found on its environment.
Fourth, the more materials, the more complex the algorithm becomes
Fifth, the flow of data must be delivered through the algorithm of Queue.
