متن کاملMathematical Explanation: Problems and Prospects
Since this issue is devoted to the interaction between philosophy of mathematics and mathematical practice, I would like to begin with an introductory reflection on this topic, before I enter the specifics of my contribution. In the past thirty years there has been a marked shift in philosophy of mathematics, due to the appearance of research on aspects of mathematics that were previously ignor...
متن کاملMathematical Explanation in Science
Does mathematics ever play an explanatory role in science? If so then this opens the way for scientific realists to argue for the existence of mathematical entities using inference to the best explanation. Elsewhere I have argued, using a case study involving the primenumbered life cycles of periodical cicadas, that there are examples of indispensable mathematical explanations of purely physica...
متن کاملThe Beta Gompertz Geometric distribution: Mathematical Properties and Applications
In this paper, a new five-parameter so-called Beta-Gompertz Geometric (BGG) distribution is introduced that can have a decreasing, increasing, and bathtub-shaped failure rate function depending on its parameters. Some mathematical properties of the this distribution, such as the density and hazard rate functions, moments, moment generating function, R and Shannon entropy, Bon...
متن کاملInterleaving Enhances Learning: A Possible Geometric Explanation
In the traditional approach to learning, if we want students to learn how to solve different types of problems, we first teach them how to solve problems of the first type, then how to solve problems of the second type, etc. It turns out that we can speed up learning if we interleave problems of different types. In particular, it has bene empirically shown that interleaving problems of four dif...
