And in so doing one is fully absorbed in an activity which feels to one to be of intrinsic worth, and where the feeling of one's self as a distinct agent disappears because of the absorption.
In particular, a running system might create a distinct agent that understands Chinese.
If it were truly the case, he reasoned, that one needed to posit a distinct agent intellect because phantasms are only potentially intelligible, then, by the same token, one would have to posit an "agent sense", because sensibles "are only sensed in potency" (Quodl. I, q. 12, p. 164, 234).
The term agency in this context does not refer to a general belief that one is a distinct agent from others, but the specific subjective experience that one is responsible for making a particular action, and thereby its consequences.
This paper deals with the large category of convex optimization problems on the framework of second-order multi-agent systems, where each distinct agent is assigned with a local objective function, and the overall optimization problem is defined as minimizing the sum of all the local objective functions.
To facilitate visual inspection, distinct agent types are associated with different colours and proportional sizes.
To facilitate the inspection and a dimensional representation, distinct agent types are associated with different colours and sizes.
It is supposed that there exist communication noises when the information exchanges among distinct agents.
Such feature can be exploited to identify distinct agents targeting tumor dependence and/or resistance by oncogenic Met.
Treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) typically entails mechanistically distinct agents across the first- and second-line setting.
The data for abiraterone follow the publication of successful phase III studies earlier this year supporting two mechanistically distinct agents—namely, the novel taxane cabazitaxel and the autologous dendritic cell vaccine sipuleucel-T.
