Cf: Theme One Program • Motivation 4 http://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2022/08/19/theme-one-program-motivation-4-2/ All, From Zipf's Law and the category of “things inversely varying with frequency” I got a first brush with the idea that keeping track of usage frequencies is part and parcel of building efficient codes. In its first application the environment the Learner has to learn is the usage behavior of its user, as given by finite sequences of characters from a finite alphabet which might as well be called “words” and as given by finite sequences of those words which might as well be called “phrases” or “sentences”. In other words, Job One for the Learner is the job of constructing a user model. In that frame of mind we are not seeking anything so grand as a Universal Induction Algorithm but simply looking for any approach to give us a leg up, complexity wise, in Interactive Real Time.
