  2. 1. First-Order Logic and Classical Theism : Toward Logical Reorientation

    Author : Anders Kraal; Eberhard Herrmann; Mikael Stenmark; Simo Knuuttila; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; classical theism; divine simplicity; divine attributes; God; Augustine; Thomas Aquinas; first-order logic; formalization; argument-function analysis; quantifier analysis; bivalence; natural deduction; truth-bearer; inference; inference rule; logical validity; logical pluralism; logical monism; G. Frege; B. Russell; L. Wittgenstein; R. Carnap; J. Maritain; J. Salamucha; J. Bocheński; W.V.O. Quine.; Religion Theology; Religionsvetenskap Teologi;

    Abstract : This inquiry seeks an answer to the question whether classical theistic doctrines about the nature of God are amenable to formal analysis in terms of standard first-order logic. It is argued that due to the conceptual impact of classical theism’s doctrine of divine simplicity there is a good reason for answering this question in the negative. READ MORE

  4. 2. The Role of High-Level Reasoning and Rule-Based Representations in the Inverse Base-Rate Effect

    Author : Pia Wennerholm; Koen Lamberts; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; inverse base-rate effect; rationality; human knowledge representations; exemplar-based models of categorization; eliminative inference; inference rules; rapid attention shifts; associations; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

    Abstract : The inverse base-rate effect is the observation that on certain occasions people classify new objects as belonging to rare base-rate categories rather than common ones (e.g., D. L. READ MORE

  5. 3. Design and analysis with observational data : Protocols and modeling with the aim of causal inference

    Author : Paulina Jonéus; Mattias Nordin; Per Johansson; Jenny Häggström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; observational studies; protocols guidelines; epidemiology; public health; prostate disease; Statistics; Statistik;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of six papers that study the design and analysis with observational data.There is a growing interest in using real-world evidence (RWE) for regulatory purposes. The belief is that observational data can make drug developmentmore efficient and speed up patient access to new drugs. READ MORE

  6. 4. Information Integration in Perception and Cognition : Exploring the Perception-Cognition Gap

    Author : Elina Stengård; Ronald van den Berg; Adam Sanborn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Perception; Cognition; Information integration; Judgment; Computational modeling; Bayesian inference; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : Much research in both perceptual inference and cognitive inference has focused on how well human performance fares against what is considered the most optimal or rational thing to do. The verdict, however, differs between the fields. READ MORE

  7. 5. Spike-Based Bayesian-Hebbian Learning in Cortical and Subcortical Microcircuits

    Author : Philip Tully; Anders Lansner; Matthias Hennig; Gordon Pipa; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bayes rule; synaptic plasticity and memory modeling; intrinsic excitability; naïve Bayes classifier; spiking neural networks; Hebbian learning; neuromorphic engineering; reinforcement learning; temporal sequence learning; attractor network; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Cortical and subcortical microcircuits are continuously modified throughout life. Despite ongoing changes these networks stubbornly maintain their functions, which persist although destabilizing synaptic and nonsynaptic mechanisms should ostensibly propel them towards runaway excitation or quiescence.
