Other signals
Geologist observe earth quakes start small (P-wave) then get a bigger wave (S-Wave)

Think of accumulating all the little changes to make an integral that would explain the start of a P-wave, then an S-wave

Using choices of \(\kappa\) what might you learn?
Let \(\sigma(t)\) be the signal at time \(t\)
You choose a window and a function \(\kappa\) where this is a big number when the signal starts.
\[\nu(s):=\int_{start}^{stop} |\sigma(t) \kappa(s,t)| dt\]

Copy of Social Networking with Inductive Types
Social network posts are a great demonstration of creating inductive types. When it comes to recording the results for transmission one of the most versatile formats is JSON, another inductive type.
