The word "formalize" is correct and usable in written English.
It means to make something official or to give it a formal structure. Example sentence: The company formalized the agreement by signing a legal contract.
After having worked on the formalization of some elementary real analysis to verify hardware-based floating point trigonometric functions, (Harrison 2006, Harrison 2000) mentions the further need to formalize more pure mathematics—italics are his to extend his formalization to power series for trigonometric functions and basic theorems about Diophantine approximations.
We may take the sign for membership as a logical sign in some formalizations of the theory of types (which can in turn be used to formalize theories with arbitrary universes of individuals).
So we can formalize the "not easily wrong" idea in this scenario as follows: Safety \(K \phi_i \supset \phi_{i+1}\) when \(i\) is large (at least \(100\) let's say).
In both cases we wish to aggregate individual inputs into a group outcome, and both disciplines employ logic to formalize the bases' contents.
One way to formalize the interaction between probability and qualitative uncertainty is by adding another relation to the model and a modal operator to the language as is done in Fagin and Halpern (1988, 1994).
Normative economics uses the formal apparatus of economics, which gives powerful means to derive non-intuitive conclusions from simple arguments, although it also deprives the analyst of the possibility of exploring issues that are hard to formalize.
Following this notation, we can formalize rigid existential dependence as follows: "□(Ex → Ey)", which can be read as "x rigidly depends for its existence on y", or alternatively "x rigidly necessitates y".
To formalize a peace agreement between Lu and Qi, the rulers of the two states met at Jiagu and signed an oath promising to abide by certain terms and conditions lest they be harshly dealt with by the gods and spirits.
2. This sentence may be seen to formalize a well-known metatheorem about well-behaved sequent and consecution calculi — without explicating some of the technical details. 3. The formal notions of algorithms, computable functions and alike had not yet been formulated at the time when Schönfinkel published his paper.
McCarthy was one of the founders of AI, and consistently advocated a research methodology that uses logical techniques to formalize the reasoning problems that AI needs to solve.
In the context of a nonmonotonic logic and without such a logic, the Yale Shooting Anomaly would not arise it is very natural to formalize this by treating uncaused eventualities as abnormalities to be minimized.
