Semantics and Linguistic Theory, 2019 This paper deals with the non-temporal use of the future in Italian knownas ‘epistemic’ or ‘presumptive’ (PF) in declaratives and interrogatives. We firstdistinguish PF from epistemic necessity and possibility, as well as from weaknecessity modals, providing in the process the main empirical challenges PF raises.We then propose and justify a semantic ...

Intrinsic randomness in epidemic modelling beyond statistical uncertainty
Communications Physics, 2023 Uncertainty can be classified as either aleatoric (intrinsic randomness) or epistemic (imperfect knowledge of parameters). The majority of frameworks assessing infectious disease risk consider only epistemic uncertainty.

A unified analysis of the future as epistemic modality [PDF]
Natural Language & Linguistic Theory, 2017 We offer an analysis of the Greek and Italian future morphemes as epistemic modal operators. The main empirical motivation comes from the fact that future morphemes have systematic purely epistemic readings-not only in Greek and Italian, but also in Dutch, German, and En-glish will.

The Future of Epistemic Possibility
KRITERION – Journal of Philosophy, 2017 Abstract I am concerned with epistemic possibility expressions (EPEs) such as \It might be raining." Much of the discussion of EPEs has concerned the fact that a given EPE can seem true in one context and false in another. Motivated by this data, contextualists have argued that modal expressions are sensitive to information at a context ...

Heuristically Adaptive Diffusion‐Model Evolutionary Strategy
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Building on the mathematical equivalence between diffusion models and evolutionary algorithms, researchers demonstrate unprecedented control over evolutionary optimization through conditional diffusion. By training diffusion models to associate parameters with specific traits, they can guide evolution toward solutions exhibiting desired behaviors ...
