Math theorems linked to machine learning and linguistics

A new essay explores the connections between abstract mathematical concepts and practical applications in machine learning and linguistics. The paper draws parallels between the Fundamental Theorem of Galois Theory and the Stone--Weierstrass theorem, suggesting that both link an object class's ability to distinguish to its expressive power. The authors also discuss how these principles manifest in data science and linguistics, providing examples to illustrate the theme. AI
