The Martial Unity

Chapter 2490 Probabilistic Computation

There were different models and conceptualizations of probability as a concept in mathematics, ranging from purely objective, empirical, and deterministic to subjective, theoretical, and knowledge-centric. Bayesian probability was a probability that depended on the information that the person had knowledge of. For instance, if one were asked the probability of a tossed coin landing heads, one would say fifty percent. However, if one was informed that the tossed coin was one of five coin tosses, four of which yielded heads, then the answer would change.

After all, the probability of getting five heads in a row was three percent.

Frequentist probability determined a more empirically measurable form of probability that depended on a dataset of repeated trials to determine the empirical likelihood of an outcome based on the data. It would aim to determine the dataset of tossing a coin a thousand times in the above scenario.

Rui planned to employ both of these conceptualizations of probability and others to create a brand-new 'antitheticality' or 'adaptive evolution' probability parameter.

This was not going to be easy, even for him. He would need to spend a lot of time deriving a multitude of equations one after another and creating an entirely new field of applied mathematics. Perhaps he would even stumble upon a mathematical and scientific Theory of Adaptive Evolution.

"I could even teach it in my Water Sect," he mused with amusement, before returning to the project at hand.

He had fleshed out the objectives of his latest project.

He fleshed out its structure and theoretical mechanism of function.

"Project Forge."

He spontaneously came up with a name for it before jotting down everything he had decided.

All that was left was the development and training phases.

Since the project was comprised of two parts, the foundational mastery and the system of thought, it would need to have two parallel development phases and training phases.

For the foundational mastery, he just needed to train with someone who already had a vast and diverse mastery of many principles, techniques, and Martial Art. It would take a long time, but he was certain that he would be able to finish the foundational mastery of Project Forge without any problems.

There was no development phase for it, just training.

As for the system of thought, the development phase was the hard part while the training phase was the easy part.

It wasn't easy to develop such a massive system of thought. All of his systems of thought were extremely difficult to create.

The VOID algorithm was the life's work of a man from another world. The Angel of Laplace had taken years to create, years to simplify and even then he had only been able to master it five years later, after he had become a Martial Master.

The SOUL System had been the easiest of them all, but it borrowed heavily from the pattern recognition of the VOID algorithm, so he had gotten a lucky break with it. The Tree of Life had been pure mental torture of an almost continuous influx of data that had scarred his mind deeply and almost destroyed his sanity.

If he was going to create yet another system of thought of similar magnitude, it would take years at the bare minimum. "That's fine, the foundational mastery is also going to take a long time," Rui reminded himself. "So I can just do both of them together side by side inside the manifold. Also, I have the Megamind technique to help me increase my R&D productivity and output. It's a shame that I have yet to obtain a fruit from the Tree of Healing to improve it."

He began plotting out the next few years of his life in training, making sure that he optimally allocated time for maximal efficiency.

Having finally gotten his heart's fill of all the experience for refining his Martial Art in the Master Realm and dying to the Sage Realm, he was ready to move into a phase of training meant to comprehensively improve his Martial Art in solitude and silence.

He had high hopes for Project Forge.

He had never been entirely satisfied by the overly stiff system of having discrete techniques. Now his Martial Art would truly break free from the shackles of inflexibility. Now it would truly be as limitless as water.

It would allow him to deal with all kinds of circumstances extremely flexibly without needing to resort to incompatible techniques. "Tsk, I should have come up with this ages ago." Of course, it would have been difficult to implement before he became a Martial Master. Without the Martial Mind, the cognitive limits made it impossible to deploy too many systems of thought simultaneously. He hadn't even been able to use the Angel of Laplace properly before becoming a Martial Master. There had been no point in simply adding to his mental burden any more than he already had, seeing that it had been enough to break him through to the Master Realm.

Regardless, he was glad that he stumbled into this idea sooner rather than later. Coming up with it sooner rather than later meant that he could build a lot of experience with it in his life as a Martial Artist with Project Forge so that he would only get better and better at executing the technique. Soon enough, he immediately jumped into the project and began hashing out the more nuanced details for the development phase of the technique. He approached the project as a researcher and developer, forming a set of hypotheses that he would test to either refute or substantiate, while also relying on some degree of trial and error. He set sub-phases, timelines, and progress checks to ensure that he was always on track and never stalling without being aware of the fact that he was. Most Martial Artists trained more intuitively and in a more unstructured and disordered manner, but not Rui. He organized the project the way a project manager with a degree in business administration would.

And thus, he set out on a new venture.
