Exploring a Dynamic Template Matching Algorithm for the Automatic Extraction of P3 Latencies. [PDF]
PsychophysiologyABSTRACT In this study, we explore a novel template matching algorithm using the grand average as a dynamic template to extract P3 latencies. This new algorithm outperforms peak latency and fractional area latency algorithms in both empirical as well as simulated data.

A framework for evaluating reproducibility and replicability in economics
Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 338-356, April 2025.Abstract We propose a framework for evaluating reproducibility and replicability in economics. Reproducibility is defined as testing if the results of an original study can be reproduced using the same data and replicability is defined as testing if the results of an original study hold in new data.

Middlebrow Aesthetics: An Explanation and Defense
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We offer a philosophical account of the middlebrow as a theoretical category to do explanatory and critical work in aesthetics. On our account, the middlebrow ought to be understood as aspirational popular art. That is, it is art which aspires both to be popular (in a distinctive sense), and at the same time to be something more than popular ...

Automated and Unbiased Machine Learning Predictions of Alzheimer’s Risk Factors in an Ethnically Diverse Dataset using Cortical Thicknesses [PDF]
Alzheimers DementAbstract Background The 2024 Lancet Commission identified 14 major risk factors contributing to 45% of dementia cases globally. Many relate to brain structure changes, potentially mediating brain health on the pathway to dementia. This study explores these factors using brain imaging measures in binary prediction tasks.

Temporal Passage in a Fragmented World
Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fragmentalism is a relatively recent and striking addition to the debate between tensed and tenseless theories of time. First introduced by Fine in “Tense and Reality,” it presents a rare instance of both a theoretically intriguing and novel theory of time.

Can an Eternal Life Start From the Minimal Fine-Tuning for Intelligence? [PDF]
Философия и космология, 2016 Since modern physicists made more and more advances in precisely measuring the fundamental constants in nature, cosmologists have been confronted with this problem: how do we declare that nature’s constants are fine-tuned for the emergence of life?

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bayesian epistemology faces serious challenges when dealing with self‐locating evidence. This paper argues that, given two modest assumptions about how confirmation should work (Patterning and Live Centers), Bayesianism faces an unavoidable dilemma.

Vacuum decay in an interacting multiverse
Physics Letters B, 2016 We examine a new multiverse scenario in which the component universes interact. We focus our attention to the process of “true” vacuum nucleation in the false vacuum within one single element of the multiverse. It is shown that the interactions lead to a
