Founding properties on measurement
نویسنده
چکیده
Taking for granted an ontological standpoint independent of any empirical or epistemological perspective, philosophical theories of properties are actually quite rarely adopted in the knowledge representation community. The theory of qualities introduced in the DOLCE-CORE ontology [4] allows for representing different viewpoints on the world in a unified framework but it does not refer to any process used in empirical or epistemic investigations. In this paper, I will found the theory of qualities on the measurement theory proposed in [8]. In this new perspective, the stability of properties is not assumed a priori but it is founded on the stability of specific (physical) objects: the measurement systems and standards.

Epilepsy outcome data should be concerned not only with seizure frequency, but should also assess present potential as a function of preexisting capabilities. Reported findings on outcome are not consistent, although view of epilepsy outcome since the 1970's is much more optimistic. The founding of an Institute of Epileptology can stimulate concerted action to provide the scientific community w...

متن کاملMeasurement of Volumetric and Viscometric Properties of Binary Mixtures of Methyl Tert-butyl Ether (MTBE) + 1-Alcohol from 293.15 to 308.15 K and at Atmospheric Pressure
Densities and viscosities of binary mixtures of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) with 1-alkanols include 1-butanol, or +1-pentanol, or +1-hexanol, or +1-heptanol were measured as a function of composition from 293.15 to 308.15 K at atmospheric pressure. The temperatures studied were 293.15, 298.15, 303.15 and 308.15 K. The experimental results have been used to calculate the viscosity de...
متن کاملSocial regulation of maternal traits in nest-founding bumble bee (Bombus terrestris) queens.
During the nest-founding phase of the bumble bee colony cycle, queens undergo striking changes in maternal care behavior. Early in the founding phase, prior to the emergence of workers in the nest, queens are reproductive and also provision and feed their offspring. However, later in the founding phase, queens reduce their feeding of larvae and become specialized on reproduction. This transitio...
