DNA Barcoding Works in Practice but Not in (Neutral) Theory
BACKGROUND DNA barcode differences within animal species are usually much less than differences among species, making it generally straightforward to match unknowns to a reference library. Here we aim to better understand the evolutionary mechanisms underlying this usual "barcode gap" pattern. We employ avian barcode libraries to test a central prediction of neutral theory, namely, intraspecifi...
متن کاملTuring test does not work in theory but in practice
The Turing test is considered one of the most important thought experiments in the history of AI. It is argued that the test shows how people think like computers, but is this actually true? In this paper, we discuss an entirely new perspective. Scientific languages have their foundational limitations, for example, in their power of expression. It is thus possible to discuss the limitations of ...
متن کاملDeep Learning Works in Practice. But Does it Work in Theory?
Deep learning relies on a very specific kind of neural networks: those superposing several neural layers. In the last few years, deep learning achieved major breakthroughs in many tasks such as image analysis, speech recognition, natural language processing, and so on. Yet, there is no theoretical explanation of this success. In particular, it is not clear why the deeper the network, the better...
متن کاملParente and Prescott’s Theory May Work in Practice But Does Not Work in Theory
In this paper we challenge Parente and Prescott’s (1999) theoretical framework, which establishes that unions use their control of “work practices” to thwart the efficient use of technology in the firms. We argue instead that unions, despite endowing monopoly rights over a technology, should tend to impose its efficient use. In fact if union members care about labor disutility, along with wage ...
متن کاملFrom Theory to Practice What Works in Reducing Recidivism?
intervention, but a body of knowledge based on over thirty years of research that has been conducted by numerous scholars in North America and Europe. Also referred to as evidence-based practice, the What Works movement demonstrates empirically that theoretically sound, well-designed programs that meet certain conditions can appreciably reduce recidivism rates for offenders. Though the review a...
