A Sampling Semantics of Duration Calculus a Sampling Semantics of Duration Calculus

UNU/IIST UNU/IIST enables developing countries to attain self-reliance in software technology by: (i) their own development of high integrity computing systems, (ii) highest level postgraduate university teaching, (iii) international level research, and, through the above, (iv) use of as sophisticated software as reasonable. UNU/IIST contributes through: (a) advanced, joint industry-university ...

Modeling sampling duration in decisions from experience

Cognitive models of choice almost universally implicate sequential evidence accumulation as a fundamental element of the mechanism by which preferences are formed. When to stop evidence accumulation is an important question that such models do not currently try to answer. We present the first cognitive model that accurately predicts stopping decisions in individual economic decisions-from-exper...

A Sampling Semantics of Duration Calculus

In the paper, the problem of discretization of continuous time in Duration Calculus (DC) is addressed. For a DC formula D, for a sampling step h, a sampling semantics [[D]]h is defined to express the properties of discrete observations of its models, while original semantics [[D]] expresses the properties of the models. In practice, only sampling semantics is implemented. So, an implementation ...

Mayer-sampling Monte Carlo calculations of methanol virial coefficients

We present virial coefficients of up to fourth order computed by Mayer-sampling Monte Carlo for three pair potentials of methanol: one parameterized to reproduce vapourliquid coexistence and two others parameterized to reproduce a quantum pair potential. We compare the resulting second and third virial coefficients to experimental values available in the literature. We further examine the viria...
