Illusions of causality: How they bias our everyday thinking and how they could be reduced

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Illusions of causality occur when people develop the belief that there is a causal connection between two events that are actually unrelated. Such illusions have been proposed to underlie pseudoscience and superstitious thinking, sometimes leading to ...

Rectangularity Is Stronger Than Symmetry in Interpreting 2D Pictures as 3D Objects

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
It is known that the human brain has a strong preference for rectangularity in interpreting pictures as 3D shapes. Symmetry is also considered to be a factor that the human vision system places high priority on when perceiving 3D objects.

Do Tax Incentives for Farmland Leases Increase Farm Supply? Evidence From Iowa's Beginning Farmer Tax Credit

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent decades, agriculture has become increasingly concentrated through horizontal mergers and acquisitions via corporate entities, and policy makers are concerned this will be exacerbated by the aging population of farm operators. To reduce market concentration in agriculture, many states have enacted policies to entice new prospective ...

State anxiety influences P300 and P600 event-related potentials over parietal regions in the hollow-mask illusion experiment

open access: yesPersonality Neuroscience, 2021
The hollow-mask illusion is an optical illusion where a concave face is perceived as convex. It has been demonstrated that individuals with schizophrenia and anxiety are less susceptible to the illusion than controls. Previous research has shown that the

Hermann Grid Optical Illusion and The Rebelling Dots of Reality

open access: yes, 2021
In 1870, Ludimar Hermann reported an optical illusion that has been popularized thereafter after his name. In this Hermann Grid illusion, we see either white grid upon the background of complete black or black grid on the background of complete white. If

Large Language Model in Materials Science: Roles, Challenges, and Strategic Outlook

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Large language models (LLMs) are reshaping materials science. Acting as Oracle, Surrogate, Quant, and Arbiter, they now extract knowledge, predict properties, gauge risk, and steer decisions within a traceable loop. Overcoming data heterogeneity, hallucinations, and poor interpretability demands domain‐adapted models, cross‐modal data standards, and ...

Data‐Driven High‐Throughput Volume Fraction Estimation From X‐Ray Diffraction Patterns

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Long exposure times and the need for manual evaluation limit the use of X‐ray diffraction in high‐throughput applications. This study presents a data‐driven approach addressing both issues. HiVE (a method for High‐throughput Volume fraction Estimation) performs composition estimation for high‐noise XRD patterns produced using polychromatic emission ...
