To Simulate or Not to Simulate: What Are the Questions?
Simulation is a powerful method in science and engineering. However, simulation is an umbrella term, and its meaning and goals differ among disciplines. Rapid advances in neuroscience and computing draw increasing attention to large-scale brain simulations. What is the meaning of simulation, and what should the method expect to achieve? We discuss the concept of simulation from an integrated sc...
متن کاملTo Flip or Not to Flip: What Are the Questions?
The flipped classroom has been receiving a lot of press lately as a more desirable way to manage the classroom and help students learn. However, flipping the classroom may not be appropriate for every course or every instructor. There may be a time when other active learning strategies are more appropriate to meet learning outcomes, student needs, and instructor capacity. This manuscript will d...
متن کاملRestricted Boltzmann Machines are Hard to Approximately Evaluate or Simulate
Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) are a type of probability model over the Boolean cube {−1, 1} that have recently received much attention. We establish the intractability of two basic computational tasks involving RBMs, even if only a coarse approximation to the correct output is required. We first show that assuming P 6= NP, for any fixed positive constant K (which may be arbitrarily large...
متن کاملA mesh generation procedure to simulate bimaterials
It is difficult to develop an algorithm which is able to generate the appropriate mesh around the interfaces in bimaterials. In this study, a corresponding algorithm is proposed for this class of unified structures made from different materials with arbitrary shapes. The non-uniform mesh is generated adaptively based on advancing front technique available in Abaqus software. Implementing severa...
متن کاملWhat to simulate? Inferring the right direction for mental rotation
When people use mental imagery, how do they decide which images to generate? To answer this question, we explored how mental simulation should be used in the classic psychological task of determining if two images depict the same object in different orientations (Shepard & Metzler, 1971). Through a rational analysis of mental rotation, we formalized four models and compared them to human perfor...
