In this paper, we present a new semantic challenge to the moral error theory. Its first component calls upon theorists deliver deontic semantics that is consistent with error-theoretic denial of truths by returning truth-value false all sentences. We call ‘consistency challenge’ second demands explain in which way assertions can be seen differ meaning despite necessarily sharing same intension....

Local consistency enforcing is at the core of CSP (Constraint Satisfaction Problem) solving. Although arc consistency is still the most widely used level of local consistency, researchers are going on investigating more powerful levels, such as path consistency, k-consistency, (i,j)-consistency. Recently, more attention has been turned to inverse local consistency levels, such as path inverse c...

The large-sample properties of likelihood-based statistical inference under mixture models have received much attention from statisticians. Although the consistency of the nonparametric MLE is regarded as a standard conclusion, many researchers ignore the precise conditions required on the mixture model. An incorrect claim of consistency can lead to false conclusions even if the mixture model u...

This paper presents a formal framework, which is based on the notion of a serialization set, that enables to compose a set of consistency conditions into a more restrictive one. To exemplify the utility of this framework, a list of very basic consistency conditions is identified, and it is shown that various compositions of the basic conditions yield some of the most commonly used consistency c...
