Homeostatic property clusters (HPCs) are offered as a way of understanding natural kinds, especially biological species. I review the HPC approach and then discuss an objection by Ereshefsky and Matthen, to the effect that an HPC qua cluster seems ill-fitted as a description of a polymorphic species. The standard response by champions of the HPC approach is to say that all members of a polymorp...

A novel approach to temporal pattern recognition was recently introduced in the literature, called liquid computing. The model used was very complex, thus the present study uses a simplified version that is easier to understand. By exploring properties of the system with the simple setup, a better unders tanding of the complex version can be reached. A liquid computer needs a liquid memory and ...

In the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence it is well-known that correlation functions of local operators in the CFT are dual to boundary correlators computed in anti-de Sitter space. But from the point of view of AdS supergravity one of the most interesting questions is how quasi-local bulk gravitational physics emerges from the CFT. The most direct way to address this question is to study c...
متن کاملTriangulation in aetiological epidemiology
Triangulation is the practice of obtaining more reliable answers to research questions through integrating results from several different approaches, where each approach has different key sources of potential bias that are unrelated to each other. With respect to causal questions in aetiological epidemiology, if the results of different approaches all point to the same conclusion, this strength...
متن کاملAetiological factors in obesity.
It is a rather difficult task to give a review on the aetiology of obesity, as in spite of the intensive investigations of the last two decades, we have to confess that we do not know much about the aetiology. The problem of obesity is complex. Besides social and economic aspects, biochemical, genetic, neural and psychological factors are closely interacting. Changes in the energy balance have ...
