چکیده

Abstract According to the Determinable Based Account (DBA) of metaphysical indeterminacy (MI), there is MI when an indeterminate state affairs, roughly a affairs in which constituent object x has determinable property but fails have unique determinate that determinable. There are different ways might no determinate: — gappy MI, or more than one determinate— glutty MI. Talk determinables and determinates usually constructed as relative levels determination . In this paper I first (1) provide formal construction for pays crucial attention intermediate determination, then (2) explore consequences DBA introducing such levels. particular, argue highlight differences between cases allow introduce third way indeterminacy, glappy

Glutty theories and the logic of antinomies

The logic of paradox (LP) [3, 13] is very well known in philosophy as a logic that accommodates ‘non-trivial glutty theories’ (theories that are negation inconsistent but don’t contain all sentences). We highlight a lesser known logic, namely, the logic of antinomies (LA) from Asenjo and Tamburino’s 1975 article [5], and compare it with LP. We argue that the differences between the logics resul...

Gappy Phrasal Alignment By Agreement

We propose a principled and efficient phraseto-phrase alignment model, useful in machine translation as well as other related natural language processing problems. In a hidden semiMarkov model, word-to-phrase and phraseto-word translations are modeled directly by the system. Agreement between two directional models encourages the selection of parsimonious phrasal alignments, avoiding the overfi...

Karhunen – Loève procedure for gappy data

The problem of using the Karhunen – Lò eve transform with partial data is addressed. Given a set of empirical eigenfunctions , we show how to recover the modal coefficients for each gappy snapshot by a least-squares procedure. This method gives an unbiased estimate of the data that lie in the gaps and permits gaps to be filled in a reasonable manner. In addition , a scheme is advanced for findi...

The Psychology of Vagueness: Borderline Cases and Contradictions

In an interesting experimental study, Bonini et al. (1999) present partial support for truth-gap theories of vagueness. We say this despite their claim to find theoretical and empirical reasons to dismiss gap theories and despite the fact that they favor an alternative, epistemic account, which they call ‘vagueness as ignorance’. We present yet more experimental evidence that supports gap theor...

Wavelet Variance Analysis for Gappy Data

The wavelet variance is a scale-based decomposition of the process variance for a time series and has been used to analyze, for example, time deviations in atomic clocks, variations in soil properties in agricultural plots, accumulation of snow fields in the polar regions and marine atmospheric boundary layer turbulence. We propose two new unbiased estimators of the wavelet variance when the ob...
