Interpreting accuracy revisited: a refined approach to interpreting performance analysis

An approach to interpreting spirometry.

Spirometry is a powerful tool that can be used to detect, follow, and manage patients with lung disorders. Technology advancements have made spirometry much more reliable and relatively simple to incorporate into a routine office visit. However, interpreting spirometry results can be challenging because the quality of the test is largely dependent on patient effort and cooperation, and the inte...

A Unified Approach to Interpreting Model Predictions

Understanding why a model makes a certain prediction can be as crucial as the prediction’s accuracy in many applications. However, the highest accuracy for large modern datasets is often achieved by complex models that even experts struggle to interpret, such as ensemble or deep learning models, creating a tension between accuracy and interpretability. In response, various methods have recently...

A Software Studies Approach to Interpreting Passage

The following paper argues for the value of critically analyzing game code, demonstrating two potential methodologies. These draw from literary theory and software studies to reach hermeneutic readings of procedures. We use Jason Rohrer’s Passage as a case study to demonstrate these methods. Passage is one of the most frequently studied, discussed and taught works in game studies. However, many...

Interpreting Quantier Combinations Hintikka's Thesis Revisited

We discuss the thesis formulated by Hintikka (1973) that certain natural language sentences require non-linear quantication to express their meaning. Our basic assumption is that a criterion for adequacy of meaning representation is compatibility with sentence truth-conditions. This can be established by observing linguistic behavior of language users. We investigate sentences with combinations...
