How is non-knowledge represented in economic theory?
In this article, we address the question of how non-knowledge about future events that influence economic agents’ decisions in choice settings has been formally represented in economic theory up to date. To position our discussion within the ongoing debate on uncertainty, we provide a brief review of historical developments in economic theory and decision theory on the description of economic a...
متن کاملHow is time represented in the brain?
Behaviorally relevant sensory signals are not constant in time but vary on many scales. A sudden or gradual change in the patterns of a visual scene or the precise time course of an acoustic communication signal contain information that is of most importance for an organism, not the mean illumination level or mean sound intensity. To process and interpret time-varying signals in a meaningful wa...
متن کاملAnimal Toxins: How is Complexity Represented in Databases?
Peptide toxins synthesized by venomous animals have been extensively studied in the last decades. To be useful to the scientific community, this knowledge has been stored, annotated and made easy to retrieve by several databases. The aim of this article is to present what type of information users can access from each database. ArachnoServer and ConoServer focus on spider toxins and cone snail ...
متن کاملHow is the result of the categorization process represented?
How is the outcome of the categorization process represented? This question has gone virtually unaddressed. A notable exception is Barsalou (2012) which proposes that categorization results in a type–token predication, whereby the type representation (e.g. DOG) is predicated of the token representation of the categorized individual (e.g. Fido). Another is Jackendoff (1983) which proposes that c...
متن کاملHow Are Feedbacks Represented in Land Models?
Land systems are characterised by many feedbacks that can result in complex system behaviour. We defined feedbacks as the two-way influences between the land use system and a related system (e.g., climate, soils and markets), both of which are encompassed by the land system. Land models that include feedbacks thus probably more accurately mimic how land systems respond to, e.g., policy or clima...
