Expected value, to a point: Moral decision‐making under background uncertainty
Noûs, EarlyView.Abstract Expected value maximization gives plausible guidance for moral decision‐making under uncertainty in many situations. But it has unappetizing implications in ‘Pascalian’ situations involving tiny probabilities of extreme outcomes. This paper shows, first, that under realistic levels of ‘background uncertainty’ about sources of value independent

Rational Slack and Doxastic Grain
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper argues for granular permissivism, roughly the view that evidence is sometimes permissive between doxastic attitudes at different levels of grain. The argument identifies three sources of rational slack between granularly differing doxastic states: doxastic tidiness, safety, and evidential responsiveness.

Development of an Anchoring System for the Soft Asteroid Landing Exploration
International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019 The landing mechanism is easy to flow away from the surface of the asteroid, as there is nearly no gravity on the asteroid. One of the most problems for the asteroid landing exploration is to anchor the landing mechanism on the asteroid surface.

Categorial versus naturalized epistemology
Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract How do we know what kinds of things constitute knowledge or justified belief? Naturalized epistemology is committed to denying a priori insight into the kinds of kinds that are and are not knowledge or justification makers. By contrast, it is argued here that knowledge of these matters is a priori knowledge of a special kind.

Risk Analysis, EarlyView.Abstract There are two separate conceptualizations for assessing existential risks: Planetary Boundaries (PBs) and global catastrophic risks (GCRs). While these concepts are similar in principle, their underpinning literatures tend not to engage with each other.

A framework for evolving assumptions in risk analysis
Risk Analysis, EarlyView.Abstract Risk assessment can be used to evaluate the risks of complex systems and emerging technologies, such as the human–climate nexus and automation technologies, and to inform pathways and policies. Due to the interconnected and evolutionary features of such topics, risk analysts must navigate the dynamics of changing assumptions and probabilities ...
