Little Bayesians or little Einsteins? Probability and explanatory virtue in children's inferences.
Like scientists, children seek ways to explain causal systems in the world. But are children scientists in the strict Bayesian tradition of maximizing posterior probability? Or do they attend to other explanatory considerations, as laypeople and scientists - such as Einstein - do? Four experiments support the latter possibility. In particular, we demonstrate in four experiments that 4- to 8-yea...
متن کاملImams` Interpretio-Jurisprudental Inferences from Little-Known Verses of Feqhi Rules
Some verses of the holy Quran are about religious laws of Islam.

متن کاملLittle or No Higgs
Higgsless models offer the possibility of electroweak symmetry breaking without the introduction of any explicit additional Higgs fields in the action within the extra dimensional framework. The various symmetries are broken via the application of appropriately chosen boundary conditions(BC) on the 5D gauge field wavefunctions. The role of the Goldstone bosons is played by the additional scalar...
متن کاملFrobenius kernel and Wedderburn's little theorem
We give a new proof of the well known Wedderburn's little theorem (1905) that a finite division ring is commutative. We apply the concept of Frobenius kernel in Frobenius representation theorem in finite group theory to build a proof.
متن کاملLittle languages: little maintenance?
So-called little, or domain-specific languages (DSLs), have the potential to make software maintenance simpler: domain-experts can directly use the DSL to make required routine modifications. At the negative side, however, more substantial changes may become more difficult: such changes may involve altering the domain-specific language. This will require compiler technology knowledge, which not...
