Though it seems to get the right results, the amended causal theory is hard-pressed to give a non-circular specification of the normal or ideal conditions for representation.
The modeling framework suggests utilizing the detail provided by satellite imagery to track forest vegetation condition and for representation of fine-scale features, such as riparian areas.
However, though Raftopoulos and Müller attempt to argue that insulation from the propositional attitudes of the person is a necessary and sufficient condition for any representation to have nonconceptual content, this does not seem to be the case with representations in general and certain personal level representations in particular.
On an account of the sort Ameriks favors, the unity of apperception, and more exactly, the synthesis that explains our consciousness of the identity of the subject, is only a necessary condition for the representation of objects (cf. Allais 2011).
Allison points out that on this reading Kant's reasoning appears to involve a non sequitur, since (2) supports only Kant's having in mind that the unity of consciousness is a necessary condition for the representation of an object, and not for its also being a sufficient condition.
1 We have been working with a sufficient condition for being a representation that is relatively easy to meet.
For example, Geurts (1999) develops a DRT treatment of attitudes and modals, but provides truth conditions for DRS representations of attitude descriptions in terms of an underlying model in which the objects of attitudes are not structural, but rather involve a neo-Hintikkan relation between individuals and sets of worlds.
To do this, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a unitary irreducible representation to be admissible in terms of Kirillov Duflo orbit method.
Approximate equivalence for representations of C∗-algebras is shown to be determined by a trace condition, analogous to the trace condition for unitary equivalence of representations of finite groups.
If the conditions for a good representation of the ILDM by the simpler subsystem are met, then the ILDM of the simpler system can be used directly.
