A quoi sert la modalisation a posteriori ?
Anglophonia, 2015 This paper explores Paul Larreya’s concept of a posteriori modalisation. We first come back on Larreya’s distinction between a priori and a posteriori modalisation and suggest that his typology of the uses and functions of a posteriori modalisation ...

Love and the Necessity of the Trinity: An A Posteriori Argument
Religions, 2021 This article aims to provide an a posteriori argument from love for the Trinity. A reformulation of the argument from love is made by proposing a novel version of the argument that is situated within an objective, empirical, natural theological framework.

Prior Distribution and Entropy in Computer Adaptive Testing Ability Estimation through MAP or EAP
Entropy, 2022 To derive a latent trait (for instance ability) in a computer adaptive testing (CAT) framework, the obtained results from a model must have a direct relationship to the examinees’ response to a set of items presented.

Immanence is Volatile! a critique on reading Hjelmslev’s Theory of Language as “Critique of Pure Linguistic Reason” [PDF]
Journal of Philosophical Investigations, 2023 In his critical reading of the book Prolegomena to a Theory of Language, Safaie (2021), referring to a Kantian epistemology and several other approaches, considers Hjelmslev’s theory of language a priori, non-empirical, pure, rationalist, and ...

A residual based A POSTERIORI error estimator for an augmented mixed finite element method in linear elasticity [PDF]
, 2005 In this paper we develop a residual based a posteriori error analysis for an augmented mixed finite element method applied to the problem of linear elasticity in the plane. More precisely, we derive a reliable and efficient a posteriori error estimator

A Priori or a Posteriori? [PDF]
, 2020 What is the significance of the distinction between the a priori and the a posteriori in metametaphysics? The primary relevance of the distinction concerns the source of metaphysical knowledge and our epistemic access to that source. For instance, how can we gain knowledge about things like numbers and sets, which are abstract objects?

A posteriori error control for a quasi-continuum approximation of a periodic chain [PDF]
, 2013 We consider a one-dimensional periodic atomistic model, for which we formulate and analyse an adaptive variant of a quasicontinuum method. We establish a posteriori error estimators for the energy norm and for the energy, based on a posteriori residual ...

Robust a priori and a posteriori error analysis for the approximation of Allen–Cahn and Ginzburg–Landau equations past topological changes [PDF]
, 2010 A priori and a posteriori error estimates are derived for the numerical approximation of scalar and complex valued phase field models. Particular attention is devoted to the dependence of the estimates on a small parameter and to the validity of the ...

A priori and a posteriori analysis of the quasinonlocal quasicontinuum method in 1D [PDF]
, 2010 For a next-nearest neighbour pair interaction model in a periodic domain, a priori and a posteriori analyses of the quasinonlocal quasicontinuum method (QNL-QC) are presented.
