Parrondo’s Paradox and Epistemology – combining two faulty strategies to get good results PARRONDO’S PARADOX AND EPISTEMOLOGY – WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD COGNIZERS (AND CONVERSELY) Fredrik Stjernberg Philosophy, Linköping University frest@irk.liu.se ABSTRACT: According to Parrondo’s Paradox, there will be cases where a subject facing two probabilistically losing strategies has a probabilistic

We introduce rigorous theory for deriving first and second order backpropagation methods for Deep Neural Networks (DNN) whilst satisfying existing theory in DNN optimization. We begin by formally defining a neural network with its respective components and state the first and second order chain rule with respect to its partial derivatives. The partial derivatives in the chain rule formula are rela

Now, more than ever, we are told that ‘authenticity’ is an added value that customers want. The objective of this study is to determine what authenticity relevant for design is and whether it can be used as a standardised procedure to improve product design. In this study, industrial designers have been interviewed about their views on authenticity. This paper is a combined result of a literature Now, more than ever, we are told that 'authenticity' is an added value that customers want. The objective of this study is to determine what kind of authenticity is relevant to design, and whether it can be used as a standardised procedure to improve product design. In this study industrial designers were interviewed about their views on authenticity. The paper represents the combined result of a

Museum Stobaeanum included a collection of artefacts, originally labeled ”artificialia”. It consisted primarily of ethnographic objects from Asia, North and South America, Russia, Siberia, Greenland and Lapland, but also Classical antiquities, Nordic antiques, curious European works of art, as well as scientific instruments and models. Museum Stobaeanum included a comparatively small collection of

This thesis aims to shed light on the impact of the so-called Pay as You Save® (PAYS ®) or on-bill programmes for energy efficiency improvements in the building sector. These programmes are based on an innovative financing model that was developed to overcome several barriers to the up-take of energy efficiency measures by households and businesses. From the consumer’s side, these barriers include

Municipal wastewater treatment plants are constantly forced to make improvements. The main objectives are to reduce energy consumption, to increase the treatment capacity and to improve the effluent water quality. Microsieves in combination with chemical pretreatment can potentially fulfil these objectives. In this work, experiments were mainly conducted at the large pilot scale, and supplementary

Color is the most obvious and easily determined soil property that can provide crucial information about soil composition. The NIX™ Pro color sensor (Nix) presents a user-friendly alternative to the traditional Munsell manual method, with reduced sensitivity to environmental and human factors. Therefore, a new method was developed to use Nix in combination with machine learning to quickly and affo

A trend, which can be noted in the field of cash handling, is the increase of ATMs that are able to recirculate banknotes. Cash recycling means that notes deposited by one customer are then available for withdrawal by another from the same machine. Cash recycling has both economic advantages and reduces environment impact, as transport to machines for filling and emptying them can be decreased. Wh

This thesis presents the development of a numerical optimization algorithm for airfoils, and how it can be used in design of wind turbine blades. It was found that the developed algorithm successfully improves the goal parameters under given conditions and constraints. This research was conducted on behalf of Winfoor AB who has developed a conceptually new blade design, in which every single blade

Accurate detection of SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody (nAb) is critical for assessing the immunity levels after virus infection or vaccination. As fast, cost-effective alternatives to viral infection-based assays, competitive binding (CB) assays were developed to quantitate nAb by monitoring the ability of sera to inhibit the binding of viral spike (S) protein to the angiotensin converting enzyme
