Could All Life Be Sentient?

چکیده
This paper concerns biopsychism, the position that feeling is a vital activity of all organisms or living beings. It evaluates biopsychism specifically from perspective enactive conception life and life–mind continuity. Does as fundamentally value-constituting value-driven process imply sentient value? Although plausible case can be made, there remains conceptual inferential gap between differential responsiveness to value hedonic affective valence. Nevertheless, for zoopsychism — animals are only beings over also inconclusive.

متن کاملEnsembling neural networks: Many could be better than all
Neural network ensemble is a learning paradigm where many neural networks are jointly used to solve a problem. In this paper, the relationship between the ensemble and its component neural networks is analyzed from the context of both regression and classification, which reveals that it may be better to ensemble many instead of all of the neural networks at hand. This result is interesting beca...

In previous research, many mutation selection techniques have been proposed to reduce the cost of mutation analysis. After a mutant subset is selected, researchers could obtain a test suite which can detect all mutants in the mutant subset. Then they run all mutants over this test suite, and the detection ratio to all mutants is used to evaluate the effectiveness of mutation selection technique...

This attack belongs to a new generation of cryptanalysis which targets geometrical properties of multivariate functions. It works particularly well on SFLASH due to its simple structure but further applications are emerging. ...
