Implications are described for peer review of quantitative theory in which ambiguity, logical rigor, simplicity, or dynamics are designed to play important roles.
A related approach to logical form and scope ambiguity enjoying some current popularity is minimal recursion semantics (MRS) (Copestake et al. 2005), which goes even further in fragmenting the meaningful parts of an expression, with the goal of allowing incremental constraint-based assembly of these pieces into unambiguous sentential LFs.
The success of these quantitative developments, however, unfortunately helped to conceal some ambiguities and logical inconsistencies in the qualitative definitions of acids and bases in terms of the production of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, respectively.
This preparatory process improved data quality, minimized ambiguity, and enhanced logical coherence of results.
Contemporary feminist epistemologists have pointed out how traditional philosophy's emphasis on rational, logical absolutes has devalued the ambiguities of the embodied life.
Contemporary feminist epistemologists such as Susan Bordo and Alison Jaggar have pointed out how traditional philosophy's emphasis on rational, logical absolutes has devalued the ambiguities of changing embodied experience.
That, Mr. Farrell said, is "an amphiboly, a logical confusion created by a grammatical ambiguity".
In Q-CRQ decoding, we should handle two types of ambiguity: the physical and logical errors.
If logic is to be free of issues that would complicate telling valid from non-valid arguments by form, detecting ambiguity is essential to logical representation of natural language arguments.
The puzzling aspect of these sophisms is variously caused by semantic or syntactic ambiguities involved in certain logical or "syncategorematic" words such as "all", "every", "or", "if…then", "and", "not", "begins", "ceases", "except", "necessary", "possible", etc.
