  • Ultimate Explanations of the Universe

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    We humans are collectively driven by a powerful - yet not fully explained - instinct to understand. We would like to see everything established, proven, laid bare. The more important an issue, the more we desire to see it clarified, stripped of all secrets, all shades of gray. What could be more important than to understand the Universe and ourselves as a part of it? To find a window onto our ... Leer más

  • Hilbert’s Program

    An Essay on Mathematical Instrumentalism

    de M. Detlefsen ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Hilbert's Program was founded on a concern for the phenomenon of paradox in mathematics. To Hilbert, the paradoxes, which are at once both absurd and irresistible, revealed a deep philosophical truth: namely, that there is a discrepancy between the laws accord ing to which the mind of homo mathematicus works, and the laws governing objective mathematical fact. Mathematical epistemology is, ... Leer más

  • Facets of Uncertainties and Applications

    ICFUA, Kolkata, India, December 2013

    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    Since the emergence of the formal concept of probability theory in the seventeenth century, uncertainty has been perceived solely in terms of probability theory. However, this apparently unique link between uncertainty and probability theory has come under investigation a few decades back. Uncertainties are nowadays accepted to be of various kinds. Uncertainty in general could refer to different ... Leer más

  • A Missing Link in Cybernetics

    Logic and Continuity

    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    In this book I argue that a reason for the limited success of various studies under the general heading of cybernetics is failure to appreciate the importance of con- nuity, in a simple metrical sense of the term. It is with particular, but certainly not exclusive, reference to the Arti cial Intelligence (AI) effort that the shortcomings of established approaches are most easily seen. One reason ... Leer más
