Classifying comparability problems in a way that matters

چکیده
Abstract How should one understand comparisons in which neither of two alternatives is at least as good the other? Much recent literature on comparability problems focuses what appropriate explanation phenomenon is. Is it due to vagueness or possibility non-conventional comparative relations such parity? This paper argues that discussions how best explain has reached an impasse hard make any progress. To advance discussion we suggest a new classification they cause for practical reasoning.

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) is a gold-standard element of evaluation of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), a disease of exercise. The initial rationale for cardiologists was that peak oxygen uptake (peakVO2) served as a surrogate of cardiac output. The breakthrough of CPX, however, came when Mancini’s group showed that the prognostic importance of a peakVO2 threshold of 14 mL...

A traditional view is that justified beliefs are ones arrived at using an appropriate methodology and that use of an appropriate methodology produces knowledge. Descartes, for example, argued that one is justified in...
متن کاملMachine Learning that Matters
Much of current machine learning (ML) research has lost its connection to problems of import to the larger world of science and society. From this perspective, there exist glaring limitations in the data sets we investigate, the metrics we employ for evaluation, and the degree to which results are communicated back to their originating domains. What changes are needed to how we conduct research...
متن کاملClassifying Problems into Complexity Classes
A fundamental problem in computer science is, stated informally: Given a problem, how hard is it?. We measure hardness by looking at the following question: Given a set A whats is the fastest algorithm to determine if “x ∈ A?” We measure the speed of an algorithm by how long it takes to run on inputs of length n, as a function of n. For example, sorting a list of length n can be done in roughly...
