What is Logical Pluralism?

by unknown authors
"... Within the philosophy of logic there has been an old debate about strengths and weaknesses of so-called “deviant ” logics, as compared to standard logic (i.e. First Order Logic with Identity). With the development of a multitude of many-valued and modal logical systems and the various ways they can ..."

that it is incompatible with the universality and normativity of logic. We then assess Beall and Restall’s logical pluralism, which is shown to be not sufficiently fine-grained in that it leads to relativism in logic. We finally introduce Dalla Pozza’s Global Pluralism, where deviant logics are viewed as dealing

Dialectical Logic and Indiscrete Models

by Altonaer Stiftung Für Philosophische Grundlagenforschung, Charlie Donahue, Sacha Gibbons, Emma Issatt, Valerie Kerruish, Steffen Roth, Charlie Donahue
"... These laws [of logic] are the work of thought itself, and not a fact which [thought] finds and must submit to.2 G. W. F. Hegel 1830 Why are the objects that we want to take into account in dialecti-cal logic not severally independent [isolated] things? What is there to relate entities internally as ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
-theoretic characteristics have correlates in a certain class of models for non-classical logics. Ternary operations on indices play a prominent role in the models for many deviant logics. Michael Dunn embraces an uncivilized interpreta-tion8 of such operations — the resulting monsters provide our correlates.9 ∗University

Deviant drug use in adolescence: A review of psychosocial correlates

by G. Nicholas Braucht, Daniel Brakarsh, Diane Follingstad, K. L. Berry - Psychological Bulletin
"... Research concerning the sociocultural and personality correlates of deviant adolescent use of alcohol, psychedelic drugs, and narcotics was reviewed. A number of consistently replicated findings regarding both personality and sociocultural correlates of adolescent use were found. At the same time, l ..."

, lack of comprehensive, systematic and theory-bound research, gross lack of methodo-logical rigor, and a lack of coordination of effort and integration of findings among the various areas of drug use research were noted. General requirements for the design of future research were also discussed. Deviant

Outlier Detection by Logic Programming

by Fabrizio Angiulli, Gianluigi Greco, Luigi Palopoli
"... The development of effective knowledge discovery techniques has become a very active research area in recent years due to the important impact it has had in several relevant application domains. One interesting task therein is that of singling out anomalous individuals from a given population, e.g., ..."

.g., to detect rare events in time-series analysis settings, or to identify objects whose behavior is deviant w.r.t. a codified standard set of rules. Such exceptional individuals are usually referred to as outliers in the literature. In this paper, the concept of outlier is formally stated in the context

To appear in a festschrift for Robert Stalnaker, edited by Judith Thomson (Oxford University Press) Stalnaker on the Interaction of Modality with Quantification and Identity

by Timothy Williamson
"... 0. Logic is sometimes conceived as metaphysically neutral, so that nothing controversial in metaphysics is logically valid. That conception devastates logic. Just about every putative principle of logic has been contested on metaphysical grounds. According to some, future contingencies violate the l ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
metaphysics corresponds to the deviant logic. Of course, if one is trying to persuade deviant metaphysicians of the error of their ways, one is unlikely to get far by relying on logical principles that they reject. But that obvious dialectical exigency stably marks out no realm of logic. Each logical

The senses of functions in the logic of sense and denotation

by Kevin C. Klement , 2010
"... This paper discusses certain problems arising within the treatment of the senses of functions in Alonzo Church’s Logic of Sense and Denotation. Church understands such senses themselves to be “sense-functions,” functions from sense to sense. However, the conditions he lays out under which a sense-fu ..."

A MULTI-LEVEL VIEW OF DEPENDABLE COMPUTING

by Behrooz Parhami , 1994
"... This paper serves a dual purpose. It presents a unified framework and terminology for the study of computer system dependability. It also surveys the field of dependable computing in light of the proposed framework. Specifically, impairments to dependability are viewed from six levels, each being m ..."

strategies for, computer system dependability at these levels. The six levels are: (I) Defect level or component level, dealing with deviant atomic parts. (2) Fault level or logic level, dealing with deviant signal values or path selections. (3) Error level or information level, dealing with deviant data
