Bears deviate from the inhibitory cascade model (ICM) during molar size evolution, with two significant deviations linked to changes in diet: Ursus minimus and Ursus deningeri. Many bears exhibit a ‘partial ICM’, highlighting the relationship between relative molar size, dietary adaptations and dental development across different species.

Pythagorean Theorem with Hippocrates’ Lunes
Is it possible to place a lune on the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose area is equal to the sum of the areas of the other two lunes placed on the legs of the triangle? In this article, I use dynamic geometry software and spreadsheets in an attempt to

Explanationism, Super-Explanationism, Ecclectic Explanationism: Persistent Problems on Both Sides [PDF]
We argue that explanationist views in epistemology continue to face persistent challenges to both their necessity and their sufficiency. This is so despite arguments offered by Kevin McCain in a paper recently published in this journal which attempt to ...

A geometric characterisation of sensitivity analysis in monomial models
Sensitivity analysis in probabilistic discrete graphical models is usually conducted by varying one probability value at a time and observing how this affects output probabilities of interest. When one probability is varied then others are proportionally

Abstract This essay, designed as a complement to opinions expressed by Rowan Williams and some speakers at the conference in his honour, explores features of early Christianity which suggest a positive evaluation of artificial intelligence. Noting that the fear of reducing humans to machines has been joined in the modern age by the fear that machines ...

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

ABSTRACT Background There have been many initiatives focused on implementing IVR in the classroom to either replace or supplement conventional instruction. The efficacy of these initiatives is often informed by IVR media comparison studies that examine the learning outcomes of students who learn academic content in IVR versus conventional media ...

Hessian geometric structure of chemical thermodynamic systems with stoichiometric constraints
We establish a Hessian geometric structure in chemical thermodynamics, which describes chemical reaction networks (CRNs) with equilibrium states. In our setup, the ideal gas assumption and mass action kinetics are not required.

Why Philosophy of Education is Basic to Philosophy
Abstract This article argues that the traditional view of philosophy of education as a derivative branch of philosophy has it backwards: that for many canonical philosophers, reflections on education were basic to their philosophy. More than this, attention to the educational dimensions of philosophical claims generally makes them better grounded and ...
