In the past few decades, so-called model organisms have become a cornerstone of research in the biomedical sciences. For the scientists, the model organism is both a practice ground for developing laboratory techniques, and a source of insights into common or even universal biological...

The more variables a logic expression contain, the more complicated is the interpretation of this expression. Since in a statistical sense prime implicants can be interpreted as interactions of binary variables, it is thus advantageous to convert such a logic expression into a disjunctive normal...

This paper is devoted to the study of how to extend a dichotomous partition of a universal set X into good and bad objects to an ordering on the power set of X. We introduce a family of rules that naturally take into account the number of good objects and the number of bad objects, and provide...

This paper analyzes the extent to which two institutional logics around climate change - the climate change "convinced" and climate change "skeptical" logics - are truly competing or talking past each other in a way that can be described as a logic schism. Drawing on the concept of framing from...

This paper introduces a notion of "epistemic action" to describe changes in the information states of the players in a game. For this, ideas are developed from earlier contributions. The ideas are enriched to cover not just actions, but also ("real moves", e.g. choosing a card, exchanging cards...

In this paper one generalizes the intuitionistic fuzzy logic (IFL) and other logics to neutrosophic logic (NL). The differences between IFL and NL (and the corresponding intuitionistic fuzzy set and neutrosophic set) are pointed out

This paper examines the consequences that result when model theory, and by implication all of (mathematical) logic, is no longer based on a correspondence theory of truth.The introductory section sets out to show that the programme of removing correspondence thinking is positive for model...
