Emulators as sources of hidden cognitive variables
I focus on the distinction between sensation and perception. Perceptions contain additional information that is useful for interpreting sensations. Following Grush, I propose that emulators can be seen as containing (or creating) hidden variables that generate perceptions from sensations. Such hidden variables could be used to explain further cognitive phenomena, for example, causal reasoning. ...
متن کاملCataclysmic variables as sources of gravitational waves
General relativity predicts that binary systems of stars produce gravitational waves of significant intensity. Here we are particularly interested in the cataclysmic variable binaries (CVs). These systems emit low frequency gravitational waves, f < 10−3Hz. We present here a catalog of CVs and argue that part of them are capable of being detected by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA).
متن کاملHidden Variables or Hidden Theories?
We show that a modified Relativity Principle could explain in a " classical " way the strange correlations of entangled photons. We propose a gedanken experiment with balls and boxes that predicts the same distribution of probability of the Quantum Mechanics in the case of the EPR experiment with a pair of entangled photons meeting a pair of polarizers. In the light of this gedanken experiment,...
متن کاملLearning with hidden variables
Learning and inferring features that generate sensory input is a task continuously performed by cortex. In recent years, novel algorithms and learning rules have been proposed that allow neural network models to learn such features from natural images, written text, audio signals, etc. These networks usually involve deep architectures with many layers of hidden neurons. Here we review recent ad...
متن کاملDynamics and Hidden Variables
We study the way the unitary evolution of spin 1/2 particules can be represented in a counterfactual definiteness setting. More precisely, by representing the state of such a particule by a triplet of values corresponding to the supposedly pre-existing outcomes of some measurements (those corresponding to the three Pauli matrices), we analyse the evolution of our representation when some unitar...
