Assumption-based truth maintenance svstems have become a powerful and widely used to”ol in Artificial Intelliaence Droblem solvers. The basic ATMS is restrictevd to accepting only horn clause justifications. Although various generalizations have been made and proposed to allow an ATMS to handle more general clauses, they have all involved the addition of complex and difficult to integrate hyper...

s With great interest we read the article of haovalitwongse et al. (2005) concerning the perormance of an automated seizure warning system ASWS) based on concepts from nonlinear dynamcs. To assess the performance of their algorithm, the uthors divided long-term intracranial EEG data from 0 patients into training and test data sets. For the trainng data, the authors reported a high prediction pe...

Results: Therapeutic Attachment Camp effectively reduced disruptive behaviors within a one week period and improved family mental health scores. Pretest to post-test scores on the Randolph Attachment Disorder Questionnaire showed significant change in a clinically positive direction. Behaviors specifically associated with attachment and conscience development improved, such as showing remorse o...

We give a short introduction to some questions in complexity theory and proceed to give some recent developments. In particular, we discuss probabilistically checkable proofs and their applications in establishing inapproximability results. In a traditional proof the proofchecker reads the entire proof and decides deterministically whether the proof is correct. In a probabilistically checkable ...

The logic of a physical theory reflects the structure of the propositions referring to the behaviour of a physical system in the domain of the relevant theory. It is argued in relation to classical mechanics that the propositional structure of the theory allows truth-value assignment in conformity with the traditional conception of a correspondence theory of truth. Every proposition in classica...

Horwich (Mind 123(491), 2014) has argued that only someone with inflationary tendencies could feel inclined to endorse truth relativism. In doing so, he argues deflationism about entails the denial of If sound, Horwich’s argument entail relativism is incompatible any conception our ordinary predicate according which there some sort equivalence between a ground-language claim p and corresponding...

Standard possible world semantics for propositional modal lan-guages ignore truth-value gaps. However, simple considerations suggest that it should not be so. In Section 1, I identify what I take to be a correct truth-clause for necessity under the assumption that some possible worlds are incomplete (i.e., “at” which some propositions lack a truthvalue). In Section 2, I build a world semantics,...

Frege characterizes judgement as the acknowledgement of truth a thought, appearing thereby to rule out false judgement. First in this paper I explain Frege’s characterization so that it does not have consequence. is saying for subject S judge p acknowledge thought p. Rather, he articulating judgement’s nature within self-consciousness. From within, means truth. Second, suggest articulation cent...

This paper presents some similarity measures between complex neutrosophic sets. A complex neutrosophic set is a generalization of neutrosophic set whose complex-valued truth membership function, complex-valued indeterminacy membership function, and complex valued falsity membership functions are the combinations of realvalued truth amplitude term in association with phase term, real-valued inde...
