I address then the Sleeping Beauty problem. I argue that the root cause of the flaw in the argument for 1/3 is an erroneous assimilation with a repeated experiment. Lastly, I present an informative variant of the original Sleeping Beauty e...
متن کاملRadiosity in Flatland
The radiosity method for the simulation of interre ection of light between di use surfaces is such a common image synthesis technique that its derivation is worthy of study. We here examine the radiosity method in a two dimensional, atland world. It is shown that the radiosity method is a simple nite element method for the solution of the integral equation governing global illumination. These t...
متن کاملScene Visibility Complexity in Flatland
The objective of this paper is to study scene visibility complexity in flatland, expressed by scene visibility mutual information. To achieve this aim we consider several 2D scenes to try to understand the relationship of the complexity with the number, size, and relative position of the objects within the scene, the form of the enclosure and the number of patches. Particularly, we analyze the ...
متن کاملFlatland optics: fundamentals.
"Flatland" is the title of a 120-year-old science fiction story. It describes the life of creatures living in a two-dimensional (2D) Flatland. A superior creature living in the three-dimensional (3D) spaceland, as we do, can easily inspect, for example, the inside of a Flatland house, as well as the content of a flat man's stomach without leaving any trace. Furthermore, the 3D person has supern...
