The Fearless Vampire Conservator: Phillip Kitcher and Genetic Determinism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Genetic determinism is the idea that many significant human characteristics are rendered inevitable by the presence of certain genes. The psychologist Susan Oyama has famously compared arguing against genetic determinism to battling the undead.

Ontology‐Aligned Structuring and Reuse of Multimodal Materials Data and Workflows Toward Automatic Reproduction

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Reproduction of stacking fault energy calculations from literature with a semi‐automated large language model‐assisted extraction procedure: extraction of simulation protocol, atomistic structures, computational parameters, and reported results, ontology alignment, knowledge graph construction and, finally, recomputation forvalidation.

Freedom and Determinism

open access: yes, 2021
'Freedom and Determinism' is a conflicting postulate with reference to the nature of human conduct. Is man free or is everything determined? Freedom is a matter of choice based on rationality, intelligence and knowledge. Moral freedom implies both choice

Generalized Flow and Determinism in Measurement-based Quantum Computation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We extend the notion of quantum information flow defined by Danos and Kashefi for the one-way model and present a necessary and sufficient condition for the deterministic computation in this model.

DigiChrom: A Domain Ontology for Semantic Representation of Trivalent Chromium Platings and Its Large Language Model‐Based Alignment With Multiple Mid‐Level Ontologies

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Digitalizing electroplating requires both domain knowledge and interoperability. This work introduces PlatOn, a domain ontology for trivalent chromium plating and coating characterization, and a hybrid pipeline that aligns it to a mid‐level reference ontology by combining eight similarity metrics with language model reasoning. Expert‐validated mappings

OntOMat: Toward Ontology‐Based Product and Process Design Engineering and Optimization Solutions Fueling Circular Value Chains

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The OntOMat ontology establishes a structured framework for polymer matrix fiber reinforced composite materials, integrating manufacturing processes, characterization methods, and multiscale design through the VDI/VDE 3682 formalized process description standard.

Determinism of multirelations

open access: yesJournal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming
Binary multirelations can model alternating nondeterminism, for instance, in games or nondeterministically evolving systems interacting with an environment. Such systems can show partial or total functional behaviour at both levels of alternation, so that nondeterministic behaviour may occur only at one level or both levels, or not at all.

Control of Polarization and Polar Helicity in BiFeO3 by Epitaxial Strain and Interfacial Chemistry

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In BiFeO3 thin films, the interplay of interfacial chemistry, electrostatics, and epitaxial strain is engineered to stabilize homohelicity in polarization textures at the domain scale. The synergistic use of a Bi2O2‐terminated Aurivillius buffer layer and a highly anisotropic compressive epitaxial strain offers new routes to control the polar‐texture ...

Tense Logics and Determinism

open access: yesStudies in Logic, Grammar and Rhetoric
In this article, we will discuss the concept of logical determinism and arguments in favor of determinism based on the law of excluded middle and the principle of causality.

Free psychology? Why psychological research is incompatible with the requirements of clockwork determinism

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
This essay argues that the concept of strict causal determinism (or “clockwork determinism”), while being a powerful doctrine to reduce uncertainty, is not compatible with the way psychology does science.
