Freedom and the psychoanalytic ontology of quantum physics
Journal of Analytical Psychology, 2018AbstractJung's paper ‘Synchronicity – an acausal connecting principle’, defining the phenomenon as a ‘meaningful’ coincidence depending on archetypal activation, was published in 1952, together with a conceptually related piece by physicist and Nobel Laureate Wolfgang Pauli entitled, ‘The influence of archetypal ideas on the scientific theories of ...

Towards an Ontology of Physics
2014Abstract : Meaningful interoperability between physics-based models requires a common understanding and standardized description of the physical laws governing physical objects, i.e., an ontology of physics and the resulting metadata. For example, currently, the Synthetic Environment Data Representation and Interchange Specification (SEDRIS) standard ...

Physics and the Ontological Problem
Philosophy, 1932If there is one question which stands forth pre-eminently from among the many problems with which physical science bristles, it is that of the ontological status of the world which physics is exploring. What is reality in the eyes of science, and what are we to understand the physicist to mean when he refers to the “real world”?

Bridging biological ontologies and biosimulation: the ontology of physics for biology.
AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium, 2010We introduce and define the Ontology of Physics for Biology (OPB), a reference ontology of physical principles that bridges the gap between bioinformat-ics modeling of biological structures and the bio-simulation modeling of biological processes. Where-as modeling anatomical entities is relatively well-studied, representing the physics-based semantics ...

Physicalism and sparse ontology
Philosophical Studies, 2008A major stumbling block for non-reductive physicalism is Kim’s disjunctive property objection. In this paper I bring certain issues in sparse ontology to bear on the objection, in particular the theses of priority monism and priority pluralism. Priority pluralism (or something close to it, anyway) is a common ontological background assumption, so in ...

Physicalism and Ontological Holism
Metaphilosophy, 1999The claim of this paper is that we should envisage physicalism as an ontological holism. Our current basic physics, quantum theory, suggests that, ontologically speaking, we have to assume one global quantum state of the world; many of the properties that are often taken to be intrinsic properties of physical systems are in fact relations, which are ...

Designing an Ontology for Physical Exercise Actions
2018Instructions for physical exercises leave many details underspecified that are taken for granted and inferred by the intended reader. For certain applications, such as generating virtual action visualizations from such textual instructions, advanced text processing is needed, requiring interpretation of both implicit and explicit information.

The Ontological Coherence of Intuitive Physics
Cognition and Instruction, 1993Ference Marton has produced a characteristically lucid and elegant commentary, for which I am grateful, He took the time to resay, from his position, that from my monograph which is most compelling to him-a contribution in itself. He identifies as a central product my uncovering the "structures of awareness" that underlie both everyday experience and ...
