Pedocomputing: A Generalized Framework for Polynomial-Time Solution of NP Problems Gary Yngve
Alternative Computing Paradigms • Quantum computing • DNA computing • Necrocomputing
Pedocomputing • Solves NP problems in poly-time • Adaptable to approximation algorithms • AI and graphics applications
Previous Work • Swift’s modest proposal • Gifford, et al. • Nike • Everquest • The Catholic Church
Poly-time solution to NP problems • Create an exponential number of children in poly-time • Exponential number of children = exponential number of pedoflops • Children model nondeterministic Turing machine
Applications for AI • Five million P4 processors do not even come close to reproducing the mental abilities of a 5-year-old. • With pedocomputing, five million 5-year-olds do a damn good job at reproducing the mental abilities of five million 5-year-olds.
Conclusions • Pedocomputing solves NP problems in poly-time • Applications to approximation algorithms, AI, and graphics
Acknowledgements and Apologies • Eugene Hsu for finding the childish mentalities for the drawings • Lounge denizens • The Catholic Church • Hannah Tang
