Modeling the Structure and Complexity of Engineering Routine Design Problems [PDF]
, 2011 This paper proposes a model to structure routine design problems as well as a model of its design complexity. The idea is that having a proper model of the structure of such problems enables understanding its complexity, and likewise, a proper ...

An Axiomatic Analysis of Diversity Evaluation Metrics: Introducing the Rank-Biased Utility Metric
, 2018 Many evaluation metrics have been defined to evaluate the effectiveness ad-hoc retrieval and search result diversification systems. However, it is often unclear which evaluation metric should be used to analyze the performance of retrieval systems given ...

A Relational View of Uncertainty
Strategic Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT There is significant confusion and debate in entrepreneurship and strategy research about the nature and locus of uncertainty. Does uncertainty reside internally in the agent or externally in the environment? This article introduces a relational view of uncertainty (RVU) to help reframe this issue.

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Obesity and psychiatric disorders are the leading causes of global morbidity. Epidemiological studies suggest a bidirectional link between higher body mass index (BMI) and mental health outcomes, but the direction of causality remains uncertain due to confounding and reverse causation. We performed a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using

Attribute Implication Bases From Galois Connection Structures
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Modeling knowledge systems by determining relationships among key variables have been and currently is a fundamental and nontrivial challenge in real‐world scenarios. Many approaches have been developed to reach this goal, but many of them are heuristic and require of alternative procedures to provide robust and tractable rules.

The Relativity of Existence [PDF]
, 2012 Despite the success of modern physics in formulating mathematical theories that can predict the outcome of experiments, we have made remarkably little progress towards answering the most fundamental question of: why is there a universe at all, as opposed
