Humans Are Easily Fooled by Digital Images
Digital images are ubiquitous in our modern lives, with uses ranging from social media to news, and even scientific papers. For this reason, it is crucial evaluate how accurate people are when performing the task of identify doctored images. In this paper, we performed an extensive user study evaluating subjects capacity to detect fake images. After observing an image, users have been asked if ...
متن کاملHumans are not fooled by size illusions in attractiveness judgements☆
Could signallers use size contrast illusions to dishonestly exaggerate their attractiveness to potential mates? Using composite photographs of women from three body mass index (BMI) categories designed to simulate small groups, we show that target women of medium size are judged as thinner when surrounded by larger women than when surrounded by thinner women. However, attractiveness judgements ...

The nature of this criticism is described, with key reliance on Worthington Hooker's Lessons from the History of Medical Delusions (1850). Most physicians viewed prospects for suppressing quackery more hopefully than Hooker did. Even he, however, would be shocked that ...
متن کاملRisk Analysis 101 : Fooled by local robustness . . . again ! ∗
It is remarkable to what length some risk analysts would go to argue for the use of info-gap’s robustness model (circa 2000) as a tool for decision-making under severe uncertainty. This is remarkable because this model is a re-invented version of a model of local robustness known universally as the Radius of Stability model (circa 1960), which in turn is a simple instance of Wald’s famous Maxim...
متن کاملFooled by local robustness: an applied ecology perspective.
In this short discussion, we point out that it is apparently as easy to be fooled by robustness as it is to be fooled by randomness. Our objective is to bring to the attention of applied ecologists that radius-of-stability robustness models are models of local robustness. As such, these models are utterly unsuitable for the treatment/management of a severe uncertainty characterized by a vast un...
