Two Kinds of Logical Impossibility [PDF]
In this paper, we argue that a distinction ought to be drawn between two ways in which a given world might be logically impossible. First, a world w might be impossible because the laws that hold at w are different from those that hold at some other ...

A Sixth Mass Extinction? How Linguistic Uncertainty Shapes Our Understanding of the Biodiversity Crisis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The term ‘sixth mass extinction’ has become synonymous with the current biodiversity crisis. However, despite a general agreement that current biodiversity declines are severe, no consensus has been reached on whether this constitutes a ‘mass extinction event’, and thus, whether our current situation is comparable to the catastrophic ...

Novel Decision Modeling for Manufacturing Sustainability under Single-Valued Neutrosophic Hesitant Fuzzy Rough Aggregation Information. [PDF]
We developed a multicriteria decision‐making method based on the list of novel single‐valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy rough (SV‐NHFR) weighted averaging and geometric aggregation operators to address the uncertainty and achieve the sustainability of the manufacturing business.

Change of logic, without change of meaning
Abstract Change of logic is typically taken as requiring that the meanings of the connectives change too. As a result, it has been argued that legitimate rivalry between logics is under threat. This is, in a nutshell, the meaning‐variance argument, traditionally attributed to Quine.

Abstract The background of this paper (section 1) consists in a new account to foundation‐theoretic epistemology characterized by two features: (i) All beliefs are to be justified by deductive, inductive or abductive inferences from a minimalistic class of unproblematic (introspective or analytic) basic beliefs.

A new bridge principle for the normativity of logic
Abstract Logic appears to be normative for rational belief. The thesis of the normativity of logic holds that indeed logic has such a normative status. Gilbert Harman has questioned it, thereby giving rise to what has been called “Harman's skeptical challenge”.

Polygroups are an extended form of groups and a subclass of hypergroups that follow group‐type axioms. In this paper, we define a triplet single‐valued neutrosophic set, which is a generalization of fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, and neutrosophic sets, and we combine this novel concept with hypergroups and polygroups.

Neutrosophic D’Agostino Test of Normality: An Application to Water Data
The D’Agostino test has been widely applied for testing the normality of the data. The existing D’Agostino test cannot be applied when the data have some indeterminate observations or observations which are obtained from the complex systems. In this paper, we present a D’Agostino test under neutrosophic statistics.
