Cryptographers agree that large-scale algorithms are an interesting new topic in the field of machine learning, and information theorists concur. In fact, few information theorists would disagree with the synthesis of 802.11b, which embodies the natural principles of hardware and architecture. In order to achieve this aim, we disprove that though neural networks and linked lists can cooperate t...

The original version of this note was based on two talks given by Efren Ruiz at the Toronto Set Theory seminar in November 2005. This very tentative note and my Luminy talk form an attempt to record the ideas from these talks and draw more attention of set theorists to Naimark’s problem (Problem 5.1 below). An excellent invitation to C*-algebras for set-theorists can be found in [5]. All mistak...

Is a person more receptive to love and affection when his self-esteem, is high or when it is low? Learning theorists, clinicians, and dissonance theorists provide conflicting answers. This paper proposes and tests an explanation for these contradictory research findings. This explanation is based on the assumption that low-self-esteem individuals are unusually receptive to affection when they r...

Interactions between evolutionary psychologists and developmental systems theorists have been largely antagonistic. This is unfortunate because potential synergies between the two approaches remain unexplored. This article presents a method that may help to bridge the divide, and that has proven fruitful in biology: dynamic optimization. Dynamic optimization integrates developmental systems the...

A substantial and growing body of evidence from cognitive neuroscience supports the concept of multiple memory systems (MMS). However, the existence of multiple systems has been questioned by theorists who instead propose that dissociations can be accounted for within a single memory system. We present convergent evidence from neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies of category learning in ...

Explicitly or implicitly, feminist or not, much of the literature employing a political economy perspective has assumed the existence of two largely separate spheres: a public sphere located in the formal economy and dominated by men, and a private sphere confined to the household and managed by women. For non-feminist theorists, this assumption is evident in the focus on the formal economy to ...

We add to the ongoing call for greater integration between organisational and history scholarship. Specifically, we contribute by identifying reciprocal opportunities practice theorists historians interested in unfolding of socio-historic patterns over space time. Through contrasting two studies ‘relationship’ international reinsurance industry – one an ethnographic, practice-based study, other...

Abstract In this paper, we draw attention to the epistemological assumptions of market liberalism and standpoint theory argue that they have more in common than previously thought. We show both traditions on a similar bedrock, specifically relating fragmentation knowledge society fact some cannot easily be shared between agents. go investigate how liberals theorists with recourse these foundati...
