Stimulating “Knowledge”; “Wisdom” and “Mind” Each other

Stimulating motor wisdom.

COMPARED WITH MOST NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL phenomena, muscle contraction is a slow process. After an action potential has arrived at the muscle fiber membrane, it takes some 30 ms to fully start up the contractile machinery, and it takes even longer to stop it, i.e., to relax force. The contractile muscle properties differ between fast and slow muscle fibers, and they also change during contraction:...

Between Wisdom and Knowledge

The key to understanding the nature of government is to be found in the old debate between realists and political utopians of many kind. This controversy has several fields including the epistemological issues of political knowledge, the disagreements between philosophers and historians, and the political clashes of liberals wih conservatives. As for the status of political knowledge, the first...

Understanding "Each Other"

Although natural language is ambiguous, various linguistic and extra-linguistic factors often help determine a preferred reading. In this paper , we show that model generation can be used to model this process in the case of reciprocal statements. The proposed analysis builds on insights from Dalrymple et al. 98 and is shown to provide an integrated, computational account of the interplay betwe...

Improve Each Other?

We approach the problem of adaptively combining the predictions of an ensemble of seasonal climate models as a Multi-task Learning (MTL) problem. Unlike the traditional MTL setting, we only have a single functional task (combining the predictions ensemble members), where we consider multiple forecast periods from the same suite of models as our multiple learning tasks. Even though the same mode...
