This paper deals wi th the way dual genetic algorithms ( D G A ) , an extension of the standard ones, explore the search space. After a brief introduction presenting genetic algorithms and dualism, the fitness distance correlation is discussed in the context of dualism. From this discussion, a conjecture is made about the genetic: heuristic used by dual genetic algorithms to explore the search ...

This paper tackles the philosophical effect of depression on Kafka Tamura, major character in Haruki Murakami’s Shore. Tamura has shown quite a clear disparity his personalities, depending some circumstances he encounters through journey. Depression almost always been present when is addressing ominous imaginary persona, “the boy named Crow.” change believed to be linked as compass that weaves ...

1 Grasping Properties I will present an argument for property dualism. The argument employs a distinction between having a concept of a property and grasping a property via a concept. If you grasp a property P via a concept C, then C is a concept of P. But the reverse does not hold: you may have a concept of a property without grasping that property via any concept. If you grasp a property, the...

We suggest a solution for iterative processing in data flow diagrams based on the notion of a conditional data flow switch, and a specialized iterative construct based on pattem matching f o r vectors and matrices. Both of these constructs can be seamlessly incorporated into a data pow visual programming language. We demonstrate how these constructs may be used to reveal the spatialhemporal dua...

I finally turn to an all too cursory discussion of the application of the foregoing considerations to the identity thesis. Identity theorists have been concerned with several distinct types of identifications: of a person with his body, of a particular sensation (or event or state of having the sensation) with a particular brain state (Jones's pain at 06:00 was his C-fiber stimulation at that t...
