Mereology and Rough Mereology: Rough Mereological Granulation
In this chapter, we embark on a more specific granulation theory, stemming from the mereological theory of things. This mechanism provides us with tolerance and weak tolerance relations forming a graded similarity in the sense of Chap.1 and with resulting therefrom granules. To put the necessary notions in a proper order, we are going to discuss mereology, rough mereology and the mereological g...
متن کاملContext Mereology
We show that under a small number of assumptions, it is possible to interpret truth in a context as a quantification over truth in 'atomic' or pointlike contexts, which are transparent to all the connectives. We discuss the necessary assumptions and suggest conditions under which they are intuitively reasonable. Introduction This note is inspired by the context logic originally introduced by J....
متن کاملAn extensionalist’s guide to non-extensional mereology
Formal mereology should be of interest to metaphysicians because it allows us, in a rigorous way, to determine the consequence relations between metaphysical theses and theories, many of which are of metaphysical interest. Take, for example, the many and various puzzles of constitution, and the metaphysical theories that have been advanced to solve them. Ideally, it should be possible to analys...
متن کاملMereology, Modality and Magic
If the property being a methane molecule is a universal, then it is a structural universal: objects instantiate being a methane molecule just in case they have the right sorts of proper parts arranged in the right sort of way. Lewis argued that there can be no satisfactory account of structural universals; in this paper I provide a satisfactory account.
متن کاملAn algebraic/analytic method for reconstruction from image correspondences
A method for the reconstruction and motion problems is presented, under the assumption that a number of point correspondences in a pair of images are known.. A geometric and algebraic theory is presented, based on invariancy properties of point connguration under aane and projective transformations. In particular, a characterization of those image pairs which correspond to the same point conngu...
