Mechanism-as-activity and the threat of polygenic effects
Polygenic effects have more than one cause. They testify to the fact that several causal contributors are sometimes simultaneously involved in causation. The importance of polygenic causation was noticed early on by Mill (1893). It has since been shown to be a problem for causal-law approaches to causation and accounts of causation cast in terms of capacities. However, polygenic causation needs...
متن کاملNetwork Coding as a WiMAX Link Reliability Mechanism
We design and implement a network-coding-enabled reliability architecture for next generation wireless networks. Our network coding (NC) architecture uses a flexible thread-based design, with each encoder-decoder instance applying systematic intra-session random linear network coding as a packet erasure code at the IP layer, to ensure the fast and reliable transfer of information between wirele...
متن کاملCreative Coding for Humor Design: A Preliminary Exploration
Computational humor generation is a tricky problem. The idea to have a computer program capable of making people laugh, in a similar way today machines can beat them at chess, is intriguing. Unfortunately the prototypes built in the last decade do not seem to have exhibited humorous skills comparable to those of humans. There are several factors contributing to the limitations in the current st...
متن کاملHumor as a Reward Mechanism: Event-Related Potentials in the Healthy and Diseased Brain
Humor processing involves distinct processing stages including incongruity detection, emotional response, and engagement of mesolimbic reward regions. Dysfunctional reward processing and clinical symptoms in response to humor have been previously described in both hypocretin deficient narcolepsy-cataplexy (NC) and in idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD). For NC patients, humor is the strongest tri...
متن کاملHumor as pedagogy: A geographical perspective
This article explores the intersections between pedagogy, geography, and humor. I have had a long-standing interest in cultivating an environment in my classrooms that allows room for humor and laughter, and my background as a geographer has encouraged me to consider the geographic aspects of humor in the classroom. Furthermore, my ongoing training in pedagogy leads me to consider how humor fun...
