The latest fad in Continental philosophy is an unexpected one. Goodbye to Lacan and Derrida and even Deleuze. Hello to the Apostle Paul. Atheist philosophers like Alain Badiou and Slavoj Zizek have coopted Paul to their own agendas, and in their wake Jewish thinkers like Jacob Taubes and radically orthodox Christian theologians (the usual suspects) have given fresh attention to the apostle. Of ...

Introduction When people come along to seek out therapeutic conversations, it is generally because they are not happy with how things are going in their lives and they would like things to be diff erent. This paper explores some broad implications for practice which arise from understandings about identity which emphasise diff erence and possibility, and describes how these connect with the int...

The field of recommender systems has seen substantial progress in recent years in terms of algorithmic sophistication and quality of recommendations as measured by standard accuracy metrics. Yet, the systems mainly act as black boxes for the user and are limited in their capability to explain why certain items are recommended. This is particularly true when using abstract models which do not ea...

We demonstrate RECAP, a tool that explains relatedness between entities in Knowledge Graphs (KGs) and implements a query by relatedness paradigm that allows to retrieve entities related to those in input. One of the peculiarities of RECAP is that it does not require any data preprocessing and can combine knowledge from multiple KGs. The underlying algorithmic techniques are reduced to the execu...

Machine learning algorithms are usually considered as explicit learning strategies requiring large data samples. Contrary to these accounts, cognitive learning seems to be based on significantly less amounts of training data and occurs often in the form of implicit learning. In order to close this gap we propose to explain these discrepancies by a form of analogical learning, bridging these two...

Decision making under uncertainty is usually based on the comparative evaluation of different alternatives by means of a decision criterion. In a qualitative setting, pessimistic and optimistic criteria have been proposed. In that setting, the whole decision process is compacted into a criterion formula on the basis of which alternatives are compared. It is thus impossible for an end user to un...
