REPRESENTATION
(bouvier) | REPRESENTATION, insurances. A representation is a collateral statement,
either by writing not inserted in the policy, or by parol, of such facts or
circumstances relative to the proposed adventure, as are necessary to be
communicated to the underwriters, to enable them to form a just estimate of
the risk.
2. A representation, like a warranty, may be either affirmative, as
where the insured avers the existence of some fact or circumstance which may
affect the risk; or promissory, as where he engages the performance of,
something executory.
3. There is a material difference between a representation and a
warranty.
4. A warranty, being a condition upon which the contract is to take
effect, is always a part of the written policy, and must appear on the face
of it. Marsh. Ins. c. 9, Sec. 2. Whereas a representation is only a matter
of collateral information or intelligence on the subject of the voyage
insured, and makes no part of the policy. A warranty being in the nature of
a condition precedent, must be strictly and literally complied with; but it
is sufficient if the representation be true in substance, whether a warranty
be material to the risk or not, the insured stakes his claim of indemnity
upon the precise truth of it, if it be affirmative, or upon the exact
performance of it, if executory; but it is sufficient if a representation be
made without fraud, and be not false in any material point, or if it be
substantially, though not literally, fulfilled. A false warranty avoids the
policy, as being a breach of the condition upon which the contract is to
take effect; and the insurer is not liable for any loss though it do not
happen in consequence of the breach of the warranty; a false representation
is no breach of the contract, but if material, avoids the policy on the
ground of fraud, or at least because the insurer has been misled by it.

knowledge representation
(foldoc) | knowledge representation
KR
The subfield of artificial intelligence concerned with
designing and using systems for storing knowledge - facts
and rules about some subject.
A body of formally represented knowledge is based on a
conceptualisation - an abstract view of the world that we
wish to represent. In order to manipulate this knowledge we
must specify how the abstract conceptualisation is represented
as a concrete data structure. An ontology is an explicit
specification of a conceptualisation.

positional representation
(foldoc) | positional representation
The conventional way of writing numbers as a
string of digits in which each digit, D, has value D * R^I,
where R is the radix or (number) base and I is the digit's
position counting leftward from zero at the least significant
(right-hand) end. Each digit can be zero to R-1. Each
position has a weight or significance R times greater than the
position to its right and the right-most place has a weight of
one.
Decimal numbers are radix ten, binary numbers are radix two,
octal radix eight and hexadecimal radix 16.
Positional representation makes arithmetic operations on large
numbers much easier than, say, roman numerals. It is
fundamental to the binary representation used by {digital
computers}.

MISREPRESENTATION
(bouvier) | MISREPRESENTATION, contracts. The statement made by a party to a contract,
that a thing relating to it is in fact in a particular way, when he knows it
is not so.
2. The misrepresentation must be both false and fraudulent, in order to
make the party making it, responsible to the other for damages. 3 Com. R.
413; 10 Mass. R. 197; 1 Rep. Const. Court, 328, 475, Yelv. 21 a, note l;
Peake's Cas. 115; 3 Campb. 154; Marsh. Ins. B. 1, c. 10, s. 1. And see
Representation. It is not every misrepresentation which will make a party
liable; when a mere misstatement of a fact has been erroneously made,
without fraud, in a casual, improvident communication, respecting a matter
which the person to whom the communication was made, and who had an interest
in it, should not have taken upon trust, but is bound to inquire himself,
and had the means of ascertaining the truth, there would be no
responsibility; 5 Maule & Selw. 380; 1 Chit. Pr. 836; 1 Sim. R. 13, 63; and
when the informant was under no legal pledge or obligation as to the precise
accuracy and correctness of his statement, the other party can maintain no
action for the consequences of that statement, upon which it was his
indiscretion to place reliance. 12 East, 638; see also, 2 Cox, R. 134; 13
Ves. 133; 3 Bos. & Pull. 370; 2 East, 103; 3 T. R, 56, 61; 3 Bulstr. 93; 6
