Aristotelian Diagrams for the Proportional Quantifier ‘Most’

نویسندگان

چکیده

In this paper, we study the interaction between square of opposition for Aristotelian quantifiers (‘all’, ‘some’, ‘no’, and ‘not all’) generated by proportional quantifier ‘most’ (in its standard generalized theory reading ‘more than half’). a first step, provide an analysis in terms bitstring semantics two squares independently. The classical involves tripartition logical space, whereas degenerate ‘all’ first-order logic (FOL) quadripartition, due to FOL’s lack existential import. second move, combine these into octagon opposition, which was hitherto unattested geometry, while meet original tri- quadripartitions yields hexapartition octagon. final switch from FOL system, does assume This well known Lenzen type, is reduced pentapartition.

Shape Heuristics in Aristotelian Diagrams

Aristotelian diagrams have a long and rich history in philosophical logic. Today, they are widely used in nearly all disciplines dealing with logical reasoning. Logical geometry is concerned with the theoretical study of these diagrams, from both a logical and a visual/geometrical perspective. In this paper, we argue that the concrete shape of Aristotelian diagrams can be of great heuristic val...

Working memory mechanism in proportional quantifier verification.

The paper explores the cognitive mechanisms involved in the verification of sentences with proportional quantifiers (e.g., "More than half of the dots are blue"). The first study shows that the verification of proportional sentences is more demanding than the verification of sentences such as: "There are seven blue and eight yellow dots". The second study reveals that both types of sentences ar...

Area-Proportional Venn Diagrams for D3

D3 is a JavaScript library for creating visualizations on the Web. This paper describes a D3 extension that generates area-proportional Euler diagrams from client-provided data. The library calculates the optimal sizes and positions of circles in the diagram, which the client can display with existing D3 functionality. The implementation is based on Leland Wilkenson’s gradient descent algorithm...

Drawing Area-Proportional Venn and Euler Diagrams

We consider the problem of drawing Venn diagrams for which each region’s area is proportional to some weight (e.g., population or percentage) assigned to that region. These area-proportional Venn diagrams have an enhanced ability over traditional Venn diagrams to visually convey information about data sets with interacting characteristics. We develop algorithms for drawing area-proportional Ven...

A general method for drawing area-proportional Euler diagrams

Area-proportional Euler diagrams have many applications, for example they are often used for visualizing data in medical and biological domains. There have been a number of recent research efforts to automatically draw Euler diagrams when the areas of the regions are not considered, leading to a range of different drawing techniques. By contrast, substantially less progress has been made on the...
