Le film de genre est-il comparable à une "expérience de pensée" ? Révisions des concepts de déterminisme et d'agentivité dans trois films noirs (1947-1949)

open access: yesLabyrinth: An International Journal for Philosophy, Value Theory and Sociocultural Hermeneutics, 2020
Is genre film comparable to a thought experiment? Revising concepts of determinism and agency in three film noirs (1947-1949)   The philosophical approach of film genres, first popularized by authors like Stanley Cavell, allows to consider genre films as

Comparing the Psychometric Properties of Two Japanese-Translated Scales of the Free Will and Determinism-Plus Scale

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
The free will and determinism-plus scale (FAD-Plus) is one of the most widely used scales to assess the lay belief of people in the existence of free will and deterministic world views. Past research has translated FAD-Plus into various languages for non-

Is the Past Determined? [PDF]

open access: yesFoundations of Physics, 2020
In a recent paper [1], I argued against backward in time effects used by several authors to explain delayed choice experiments. I gave an explanation showing that there is no physical influence propagating from the present to the past and modifying the state of the system at a time previous to the measurement.

Immersive Stories: From Technological Determinism Towards Narrative Determinism

open access: yesMedia and Communication
Following the wave of immersive production that occurred between 2015 and 2018, and in the face of new virtual, augmented, and mixed-reality devices, this article discusses the need to move from a technology- or device-focused perspective in the analysis

Scheduler-specific Confidentiality for Multi-Threaded Programs and Its Logic-Based Verification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Observational determinism has been proposed in the literature as a way to ensure confidentiality for multi-threaded programs. Intuitively, a program is observationally deterministic if the behavior of the public variables is deterministic, i.e ...

The Determinant of Cubic-Matrix of order 2 and order 3: Some basic Properties and Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Based on geometric intuition, in this paper we are trying to give an idea and visualize the meaning of the determinants for the cubic-matrix. In this paper we have analyzed the possibilities of developing the concept of determinant of matrices with three indexed 3D Matrices.

Expressing a fraction of two determinants as a determinant [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the twenty-first international symposium on Symbolic and algebraic computation, 2008
Suppose the polynomials f and g in K[x1,...,xr] over the field K are determinants of non-singular m x m and n x n matrices, respectively, whose entries are in K ∪ x1,...,xr. Furthermore, suppose h = f/g is a polynomial in K[x1,..., xr]. We construct an s x s matrix C whose entries are in K ∪ x1,...,xr, such that h = det(C) and s = γ (m+n)6, where γ = O(
