A Sixth Mass Extinction? How Linguistic Uncertainty Shapes Our Understanding of the Biodiversity Crisis. [PDF]
Ecol EvolABSTRACT 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 ...

Rotary Inverted Pendulum Identification for Control by Paraconsistent Neural Network
IEEE Access, 2021 Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been used over the last few decades to perform tasks by learning with comparisons. Fitting input-output models, system identification, control, and pattern recognition are some fields for ANN applications.

Change of logic, without change of meaning
Theoria, Volume 89, Issue 4, Page 414-431, August 2023., 2023 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.

Noûs, Volume 56, Issue 4, Page 972-999, December 2022., 2022 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
Theoria, Volume 88, Issue 6, Page 1274-1292, December 2022., 2022 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”.

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 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.

Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 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.
