Natural frequencies facilitate diagnostic inferences of managers
In Bayesian inference tasks, information about base rates as well as hit rate and false-alarm rate needs to be integrated according to Bayes' rule after the result of a diagnostic test became known. Numerous studies have found that presenting information in a Bayesian inference task in terms of natural frequencies leads to better performance compared to variants with information presented in te...
متن کاملWhy frequencies are natural
Research in mathematical cognition has shown that rates, and other interpretations of x/y, are hard to learn and understand. On the other hand, there is extensive evidence that the brain is endowed with a specialized mechanism for representing and manipulating the numerosities of sets – that is, frequencies. Hence, base-rates are neglected precisely because they are rates, whereas frequencies a...
متن کاملvariation of natural frequencies between modes
it has been proved that natural frequencies are stationary at the natural modes. also it has been shown that at the first mode it is a minimum and for systems with finite number of degrees of freedom the highest frequency is maximum (reference 1 and 2). beyond these statements nothing more can be said about the behavior of the natural frequencies without defining precisely the manner in which t...
متن کاملInteractive Natural Language Explanations of Cyc Inferences
This paper describes the inference explanation capabilities of Cyc, a logical reasoning system that includes a huge “commonsense” knowledge base and an inference engine that supports both question answering and hypothesis generation. Cyc allows the user to compose queries by means of English templates, and tries to find answers via deductive reasoning. If deduction is fruitless Cyc resorts to a...
متن کاملMaking Inferences in Natural Language Dialogs
This paper discusses the need in a na tura l language understanding system fo r a model of the speaker and of the conversat ion process i t s e l f . Most current programs use models of the domain of discourse to supply the knowledge necessary to understand what is being ta lked about. (See, e . g . , Schank[1973] or Charmak[ 1972 J. ) For example, Schank's system might contain a res taurant " ...
