New research proposes formalizing machine learning with "units" as a primitive

A new research paper proposes formalizing machine learning with "units" as a primitive, moving beyond traditional sample-based approaches. The proposed framework introduces the concept of a unit-conditioned response law, which can distinguish between homogeneous and heterogeneous worlds. The paper details how a learning task can declare persistent referents and a sameness criterion, with a focus on supervised learning where a tokenizer produces a contextual unit token and a shared response-law form reads it. This approach aims to better handle situations where identity is unresolved, allowing for "unit abduction" from factual evidence. AI
