"principles, standards," 1918, from plural of value (n.).
Usage examples of values.
Why do melodies consist of notes with constant pitch values taken from scales, where a scale consists of a finite set of possible pitch values?
The values of all the ratios for all the frequencies of light define the colour of the surface.
Harmony is the simultaneous occurrence of multiple pitch values, but a listener to speech never attempts to listen to multiple speakers at the same time.
It happens to operate in such a way that it can also perceive the same relationships between different pitch values occurring simultaneously, and in fact it responds more strongly to simultaneous pitch values.
In fact a cryptographic hash algorithm is considered broken if anyone ever discovers any pair of distinct input values that produce the same hash value.
If you arrive at a sequence of all zeros, you can reconstruct a polynomial which describes the original set of values, such that the degree of the polynomial is one less than the number of times the procedure was applied.
A common follow-on conclusion is that scales exist so that the brain can categorise pitch values, similarly to how it categorises other continuums into discrete values, as happens with vowel sounds and colours.
So the question that follows is: is there a unique input value for each possible output value if we restrict input values to those vectors that correspond to intervals between notes on the diatonic scale?
Uniqueness of input values for output values is exactly what the concept of kernel is about.
The kernel is a measure of the non-uniqueness of input values for a given output value.
If two input values differ by an element of the kernel, then they will map to the same output value.
Conversely, if two input values map to the same output value, their difference must belong to the kernel.
Logic gates have output values that are an immediate function of their input values.
Flip-flops have their output values in each clock cycle determined by their input values in the previous cycle.
If a particular neuron gets damaged or lost, the values it represents will cease to be represented at all.
