An application of grounded theory: a study of European integration [PDF]
, 1996 The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the use of a methodological technique (grounded theory) in relation to European integration theory. This is accomplished through categorisation and process, in conjunction with theoretical coding (open, axial

Grounding Occam's Razor in a Formal Theory of Simplicity
CoRR, 2020 A formal theory of simplicity is introduced, in the context of a "combinational" computation model that views computation as comprising the iterated transformational and compositional activity of a population of agents upon each other. Conventional measures of simplicity in terms of algorithmic information etc.

Embodied Functional Relations: A Formal Account Combining Abstract Logical Theory with Grounding in Simulation [PDF]
, 2020 Functional relations such as containment or support have proven difficult to formalize. Although previous efforts have attempted this using hybrids of several theories, from mereology to temporal logic, we find that such purely symbolic approaches do not account for the embodied nature of functional relations, i.e. that they are used by embodied agents

On Explaining Agent Behaviour via Root Cause Analysis: A Formal Account Grounded in Theory of Mind
, 2023 Inspired by a novel action-theoretic formalization of actual cause, Khan and Lespérance (2021) recently proposed a first account of causal knowledge that supports epistemic effects, models causal knowledge dynamics, and allows sensing actions to be causes of observed effects. To date, no other study has looked specifically at these issues.
