On the essentially dynamic nature of concepts : Constant if incremental motion in conceptual spaces
, 2019 Concepts are the means by which we structure our understanding of the world and consequently the primary means by which we encounter it. It is commonly assumed that one of the essential characteristics of concepts – regardless of referent – is their ...

Mechanising Conceptual Spaces using Variational Autoencoders [PDF]
, 2022 In this pilot study, we explore the Variational Autoencoder as a computational model for conceptual spaces in a social interaction context. Conceptually, the Variational Autoencoder is a natural fit for this purpose.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

On Some Dynamics in Conceptual Spaces
Journal of Logic, Language and InformationAbstractIn this text, we consider Gärdenfors’ conceptual spaces that are separable Hilbert spaces. In particular, the results we obtained apply to finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces. Our main contribution can be formulated as a combination of the theory of opinion dynamics with the theory of conceptual spaces.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Espaces Mentaux et Intégration Conceptuelle : Retour sur la Constitution de Théories Soeurs
CogniTextes, 2018 This paper is an attempt at describing the origins and the evolution of mental space and conceptual blending theories. The first part depicts the theoretical context in which Fauconnier was immersed, and the kinds of problems his new construct, mental ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Relational Structure of Conceptual Spaces [PDF]
Concepts play an important role in human culture, forming explicit and implicit conceptual spaces. The goal of this paper is to explore the structural organization of information in conceptual spaces.International Society for the Study of Information2024-

Probabilistic hyperspace analogue to language [PDF]
, 2005 Song and Bruza introduce a framework for Information Retrieval(IR) based on Gardenfor's three tiered cognitive model; Conceptual Spaces. They instantiate a conceptual space using Hyperspace Analogue to Language (HAL to generate higher order concepts ...
