Food Prices and Inflation Expectations in New Zealand

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food prices are conspicuous, and spending on food constitutes a considerable share of household expenditure. In this study, we use partially identified Bayesian structural vector autoregression models to analyze the effects of food price shocks on core inflation and 1‐ and 5‐year inflation expectations in New Zealand.

Steric Hindrance and Secondary Interactions Govern Reconfiguration Between Two Complex CuI Coordination Cages

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fine‐tuning steric and C─H···π contacts directs assembly of two CuI cages. An identical naphthylene‐based subcomponent forms a [CuI12L6]12+ pseudo‐hexagonal prism stabilized by 29–32 C─H···π contacts and 12 arene stacking pairs with 6‐methyl‐2‐formylpyridine, whereas the 3‐methyl analog imparts steric clashes, yielding a [CuI8L4]8+ open prism ...

Context-Indexed Counterfactuals

open access: yesStudia Semiotyczne, 2022
It is commonly believed that the role of context cannot be ignored in the analysis of conditionals, and counterfactuals in particular. On truth conditional accounts involving possible worlds semantics, conditionals have been analysed as expressions of ...

How to make beta better [PDF]

open access: yesBelgrade Philosophical Annual
In this paper, I appeal to a quantified counterfactual logic in order to argue that van Inwagen's new version of the Consequence Argument, unlike the original version of his argument, is logically valid.

Some Notes on Counterfactuals in Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Counterfactuals, i.e., events that could have occurred but eventually did not, play a unique role in quantum mechanics in that they exert causal effects despite their non-occurrence.

"If Oswald had not killed Kennedy" – Spohn on Counterfactuals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Wolfgang Spohn's theory of ranking functions is an elegant and powerful theory of the structure and dynamics of doxastic states. In two recent papers, Spohn has applied it to the analysis of conditionals, claiming to have presented a unified account of ...

Fantasy proneness and counterfactual thinking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Counterfactual thinking (CFT; mentally simulating alternatives to reality) is central to learning and motivation. Two studies explored the relationship between CFT and fantasy proneness, a personality trait typified by excessive fantasies hard to ...

Counterfactuals and Accessibility [PDF]

open access: yesThought: A Journal of Philosophy, 2016
The accessibility relation between possible worlds can be defined in the metalanguage of counterfactual semantics. As a result, counterfactuals can ground the whole of standard modal logic.

AI in chemical engineering: From promise to practice

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) in chemical engineering has moved from promise to practice: physics‐aware (gray‐box) models are gaining traction, reinforcement learning complements model predictive control (MPC), and generative AI powers documentation, digitization, and safety workflows.

Ceteris paribus logic in counterfactual reasoning

open access: yes, 2016
The semantics for counterfactuals due to David Lewis has been challenged on the basis of unlikely, or impossible, events. Such events may skew a given similarity order in favour of those possible worlds which exhibit them.
