the hermeneutic circle articulated by different hermeneuticans in various versions is one of the basic problems in modern hermeneutics. romanic hermeneutics introduced the circle as a methodological principle, but in philosophical hermeneutics the circle has ontological dimensions and regards as a process of understanding. heidegger believes that hermeneutic circle reflects dasein’s existential...

With the development of Internet, social networks have become important platforms which allow users to follow streams of posts generated by their friends and acquaintances. Through mining a collection of nodes with similarities, community detection can make us understand the characteristics of complex network deeply. Therefore, community detection has attracted increasing attention in recent ye...

Over the past few years, a number of geographers, inspired by social theory of various derivations, attempted to recenter the focus of research about GIS. In place of a technical agenda, they sought to make space for studies of the implications of GIS for society at many scales and through many processes. While much of their critique serves useful purposes, the focus on implications adopts a mo...

Joegoldsteinite, a new sulfide mineral of end-member formula MnCr2S4, was discovered in the Social Circle IVA iron meteorite. It is a thiospinel, the Mn analog of daubréelite (FeCr2S4), and a new member of the linnaeite group. Tiny grains of joegoldsteinite were also identified in the Indarch EH4 enstatite chondrite. The chemical composition of the Social Circle sample determined by electron mi...

Our personal social networks are big and cluttered, and currently there is no good way to organize them. Social networking sites allow users to manually categorize their friends into social circles (e.g. ‘circles’ on Google+, and ‘lists’ on Facebook and Twitter), however they are laborious to construct and must be updated whenever a user’s network grows. We define a novel machine learning task ...

Whereas reliance on information from one’s proximal social environment for generalizing about the population has often been associated with erroneous judgments, this information is often valuable and can be exploited for making accurate inferences. The social circle heuristic is a judgment mechanism in which the content and structure of people’s social networks are used for making inferences ab...
