What is TAPe
About theory
Isomorphism of the TAPe and natural language
04
The linguistic structure of a language cannot be approached solely from the perspective of the Language of Thought. It is the "sign" system that matters within TAPe. For example, why are the elements of a language the way they are? How did the initial elements that make up the language come to be? Why are they combined in this particular way, when there could be many different combinations? The discovery of the isomorphism between natural language and TAPe allows us to answer these questions: elements in a language are combined in many ways according to the laws of group theory, which is also used in TAPe.
02
We discovered the isomorphism of TAPe and natural language. In this case, isomorphism means that the elements, hierarchy, structure, and laws of association in natural language writing are extremely similar to the laws by which we combine and build elements and relationships within TAPe. The Language of Thought led to the creation of the characters as we know them, exactly as we know them.
05
The isomorphism of natural language and TAPe is not worth too much attention. Neither should it be treated as a serious mathematical formula. But this theory asserts that the Language of Thought led to the creation of language elements in this form, it is part of the manifestation of the Language of Thought. It is also a good subject to study these very manifestations through the TAPe mechanisms.
03
The graphic nature of language is one of the brain's ways of segmenting reality. Phonetic languages are derived from graphic languages (a thesis that can be drawn from the ideas of Chomsky and other linguists). Grammar, syntax and semantics are properties of language as a means of communication (a thesis coming from the same source). Letters, numbers, any mathematical and/or linguistic connections between them are not natural or inherent elements or laws that solve practical problems according to the laws of the Language of Thought.
06
This is exactly what we are doing now. The discovery of isomorphism of TAPe and natural language allows us to speak about a new way of data acquisition and information processing, and even about the perception of reality by devices. TAPe is indeed a new way of processing information. The elements of TAPe constitute a part of the language-based mathematics used by our brain to think. We could replace the term "language-based mathematics " with a more familiar term of "computation". But our term is more appropriate here, because we are dealing with symbols, not letters and/or numbers, to which the term "computation" is usually applied.
01
It is very likely that language was born step by step and evolved from the certain significant features initially "chosen" by the brain. Only after that the laws of linguistics, society, statistics started working for each specific language and language as a means of communication was created.
