On the nature of musical scores and the rationale to prepare them: formulating directives
This paper investigates the nature of written musical scores and their role in the communication between composer and performer. Using as thread the narrative of the rewriting of a problematic earlier score, the investigation starts from Derrida’s ...

Interpretation of point forecasts with unknown directive [PDF]
AbstractPoint forecasts can be interpreted as functionals (i.e., point summaries) of predictive distributions. We extend methodology for the identification of the functional based on time series of point forecasts and associated realizations. Focusing on state‐dependent quantiles and expectiles, we provide a generalized method of moments estimator for ...

A directional coherence attribute for seismic interpretation [PDF]
The coherence attribute is one of the most commonly used attributes in seismic interpretation. In this paper, we propose building on the recently introduced Generalized Tensor-based Coherence (GTC) attribute to make it directionally selective. This directional selectivity is achieved by selecting a directional Gaussian preprocessing kernel and applying

Direct Interpretation of Functional Programs for Debugging [PDF]
We make another assault on the longstanding problem of debugging. After exploring why debuggers are not used as widely as one might expect, especially in functional programming environments, we define the characteristics of a debugger which make it usable and thus widely used.

The Functional Interpretation of Direct Computations
AbstractThe concept of direct computation used by Statman (1977) was instrumental in the development of a notion of normal form for proofs of equality. In order to find a functional (Curry–Howard style) interpretation of direct computations we take a closer look at proof procedures for first-order sentences with equality drawing the attention to the ...
