Tests and Models of Non-compositional Concepts
The question of under what conditions conceptual representation is compositional remains debatable within cognitive science. This paper proposes a well developed mathematical apparatus for a probabilistic representation of concepts, drawing upon methods developed in quantum theory to propose a formal test that can determine whether a specific conceptual combination is compositional, or not. Thi...
متن کاملNon-compositional concepts and quantum tests
Compositionality is a frequently made assumption in linguistics, and yet many human subjects reveal highly non-compositional word associations when confronted with novel concept combinations. This article will show how a non-compositional account of concept combinations can be supplied by modelling them as interacting quantum systems.
متن کاملEmpirical tests on BioHashing
Given the recent explosion of interest in human authentication, verification based on tokenised pseudo-random numbers and userspecific biometric feature (BioHashing) has received much attention. The purpose of our paper is to investigate the pros and the cons of BioHashing. In particular we study: how to combine BioHashing in a multi-modal fusion approach based on the integration of face and fi...
متن کاملPrioritizing tests of epistasis through hierarchical representation of genomic redundancies
Epistasis is defined as a statistical interaction between two or more genomic loci in terms of their association with a phenotype of interest. Epistatic loci that are identified using data from Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) provide insights into the interplay among multiple genetic factors, with applications including assessment of susceptibility to complex diseases, decision making in...
متن کاملEmpirical likelihood-based tests for stochastic ordering.
This paper develops an empirical likelihood approach to testing for the presence of stochastic ordering among univariate distributions based on independent random samples from each distribution. The proposed test statistic is formed by integrating a localized empirical likelihood statistic with respect to the empirical distribution of the pooled sample. The asymptotic null distribution of this ...
