Randomness

Attribute selection is the process of identifying and removing as much of the irrelevant and redundant information as possible from a dataset. If the data dimensions are reduced, we will be able to improve the performance of the applied classification algorithms. They will function faster, more efficiently and will be with an improved classification accuracy. As an addition we can also execute data visualization, and increase the insight of the potential classification model [] . There are many…

Exercise 9 1. Explain the potential goals for media content analysis. What can be achieved with a content analysis? What cannot be achieved with a content analysis? One of the potential goal of media content analysis is to try to understand the effect media content has on people. For example, as discussed in class lecture, in the use of public relations, content analysis can be used to “measure the success in public relation programs and assessment of media profiles. Additionally, content…

Consider a person betting on coin tosses, and the previous five outcomes were all Heads. Under the gambler’s fallacy, the person would think that the next outcome is most likely to be Tails and would then bet for Tails. The gambler’s fallacy is the false belief in “negative autocorrelation of a non-autocorrelated random sequence of outcomes” (Sundali & Croson, 2006). In simpler words, it is the tendency to perceive an outcome as less likely to occur if it occurred more frequently than normal…

Is free will compatible with determinism? That’s the most philosophical question asked. Free will is the power or ability to make a choice for which one can be held responsible for. Determinism is the thesis that at any time the universe has one physically possibility in the future. Compatibilisim is the thesis that we can have free will in a deterministic world. This philosophical question is still not unsolved, but in this essay I will argue that a freedom of choice cannot be had by an agent…

Advertisements that criticize an opponent’s record, opinions, or character, run by a political campaign, is known as negative advertising. Negative advertisements usually expose a risk connected to voting for the opponent through influencing the fears of the voters and establishing a detrimental view of the opponent. Frankly, negative advertising appears to have increased tremendously. Negative political campaign ads are everywhere on the television, radio, and in newspapers. In contemplating…

Stating that two existential suppositions that have been perceived as intrinsically antithetical (in traditional social and philosophic perspectives) are actually capable of coexistence is relatively contentious, but Ayer’s justification of causal determinism incorporated with freedom of volition implements synchronous aspects of both philosophical perceptions and manifests as a logical conclusion to the activities of humans: compatibilism, the abstraction that humans possess the capacity to…

It comes as no surprise that the clothing we wear has a major influence on how others perceive us. There are valid reasons why we don’t typically sport sweatpants at job interviews or ripped jeans at funerals; generally, we tend to present ourselves in attire that is socially acceptable so that others are more likely to form positive impressions of us. In this experiment, we examine the effect that clothing has, not only on social perception, but also on social influence, particularly in regards…

The notion of free will is something we’re all born with, it’s not taught to us. We grow up with the idea that we are in conscious control of all our actions and thoughts. How could we not? It feels like we make all our own decisions, we chose to eat that pie, or go on that run due to eating said pie. Seeing past that veil is something that many people have done, from scientists, to philosophers, even the average citizen. Scientists have performed numerous studies, which provide pretty solid…

same if we used a different term for it ‐ and Romeo would still be as perfect if he had a different name. The alternative to this arbitrary view of meaning was associated with Plato, and its crucial difference was in the rejection of the notion of randomness in language. The Platonic view posited a deep, divine or occult, connection between the form of words (their sounds or spelling) and their meanings. This is, to some extent, a consequence of the allegorical method which dominated…
