Bench Plot and Mixed Effects Models: First steps toward a comprehensive benchmark analysis toolbox
Benchmark experiments produce data in a very specific format. The observations are drawn from the performance distributions of the candidate algorithms on resampled data sets. In this paper we introduce new visualisation techniques and show how formal test procedures can be used to evaluate the results. This is the first step towards a comprehensive toolbox of exploratory and inferential analys...
متن کاملPragmatism, minimalism, and the space of reasons
In this paper I want to explore some lines of thought leading people in each of two directions. One is towards ‘inferential role’ semantics, and the other is towards minimalism in the theory of truth. At first sight these may seem to have little to do with each other, and little to do with the overt topic of this seminar, which is the theory of content. But among other things I want to show how...

متن کاملComputer Simulations: an Inferential Conception
In this paper, I offer an inferential conception of computer simulations, emphasizing the role that simulations play as inferential devices to represent empirical phenomena. Three steps are involved in a simulation: an immersion step (from aspects of the empirical set up to the simulated model), a derivation step (that yields the relevant results), and an interpretation and correction step (tha...
