According to Hermann von Helmholtz, sensations are signs (symbols) that external causes impress on our sense organs; those signs are then used by themind to acquire knowledge of the reality. Helmholtz’s work points out the di›culty of dening a notion of causality suitable for explaining the relation between sensations on the one hand and the physical world on the other. In fact, he states that...

transcendental is such a significant term in kant's thoughts that he calls his philosophy transcendental idealism. however, this term isn't used with the same meaning in his philosophy. since the term is associated with the same meaning in the works about kant, it seems necessary to clarify its meaning in order to prevent any misunderstanding. the subject of this paper is to clarify t...

the question of being as the reference of hermeneutics is more radical than the question of interpretation in hermeneutics. being in hermeneutics becomes displayed within a text, without which no interpretation would be possible. as i have discussed in my book the authenticity of the text in hermeneutics , the text as the reference and the source of legitimacy in hermeneutics deserves priority ...

A class of locally analytic transcendental functions suitable for nonlinear adaptive filtering and neural network filtering is proposed. Since the stringent standard analyticity conditions prevent full exploitation of nonlinear quaternionic models, we make use of local analyticity conditions to provide a framework for a generic extension of nonlinear learning algorithms from the real and comple...

This paper presents a regularization method for program complexity control of linear genetic programming tuned for transcendental elementary functions. Our goal is to improve the performance of evolutionary methods when solving symbolic regression tasks involving Pfaffian functions such as polynomials, analytic algebraic and transcendental operations like sigmoid, inverse trigonometric and radi...
