Exploration geophysics is the applied branch of geophysics which uses surface methods to measure the physical properties of the subsurface Earth , in order to detect or infer the presence and position of ore minerals, hydrocarbons , geothermal reservoirs, groundwater reservoirs, and other geological structures. Exploration geophysics is the practical application of Physics physical methods such as seismic, gravitational, magnetic, electrical and electromagnetic to measure the physical properties of rocks, and in particular, to detect the measurable physical differences between rocks that contain ore deposits or hydrocarbons and those without. Exploration geophysics can be used to directly detect the target style of mineralisation, via measuring its physical properties directly. For example one may measure the density contrasts between iron ore and silicate wall rocks, or may measure the electrical conductivity contrast between conductive sulfide mineral s and barren silicate minerals. Geophysical methods The main techniques used are Seismology Seismic methods , such as reflection seismology , seismic refraction , and seismic tomography . Physical geodesy Geodesy and gravity anomaly gravity techniques , including gravity gradiometry . Magnetism Magnetic techniques , including aeromagnetic survey s.

Computational semantics is the study of how to automate the process of constructing and reasoning with semantics meaning representations of natural language expressions. It consequently plays an important role in natural language processing and computational linguistics . Some traditional topics of interest are semantic analysis linguistics construction of meaning representation s, semantic underspecification , anaphora linguistics anaphora resolution, presupposition projection, and quantifier scope resolution. Methods employed usually draw from Formal semantics linguistics formal semantics or statistical semantics . Computational semantics has points of contact with the areas of lexical semantics word sense disambiguation and semantic role labeling , discourse semantics, knowledge representation and automated reasoning in particular, automated theorem proving .

Computational archaeology describes computer based analytical methods for the study of long term human behaviour and behavioural evolution. As with other sub disciplines that have prefixed computational to their name e.g. computational biology , computational physics and computational sociology , the term is reserved for generally mathematical methods that could not realistically be performed without the aid of a computer. Computational archaeology may include the use of Geographic information system geographical information system s GIS , especially when applied to spatial analyses such as viewshed analysis and least cost path analysis as these approaches are sufficiently computationally complex that they are extremely difficult if not impossible to implement without the processing power of a computer. Likewise, some forms of statistical and mathematical mathematical model modelling , and the computer simulation of human behaviour and behavioural evolution using software tools such as Swarm simulation Swarm or Repast Modelling toolkit Repast would also be impossible to calculate without computational aid. The application of a variety of other forms of complex and bespoke software to solve archaeological problems, such as human perception and movement within built environments using software such as University College London University College London s Space Syntax program, also falls under the term computational archaeology .

Refimprove date September 2007 In computational complexity theory , a computational resource is a resource used by some computational model s in the solution of computational problem s. The simplest computational resources are computation time , the number of steps necessary to solve a problem, and memory space , the amount of storage needed while solving the problem, but many more complicated resources have been defined. A computational problem is generally defined in terms of its action on any valid input. Examples of problems might be given an integer n , determine whether n is prime , or given two numbers x and y , calculate the product x y . As the inputs get bigger, the amount of computational resources needed to solve a problem will increase. Thus, the resources needed to solve a problem are described in terms of asymptotic analysis , by identifying the resources as a function of the length or size of the input. Computational resources are useful because we can study which problems can be computed in a certain amount of each computational resource. In this way, we can determine whether algorithm s for solving the problem are optimal and we can make statements about an Algorithmic efficiency algorithm s efficiency . The set of all of the computational problems that can be solved using a certain amount of a certain computational resource is a complexity class , and relationships between different complexity classes are one of the most important topics in complexity theory.
