One of the challenges of insight processes is overcoming unhelpful associations (e.g., when conjectures about triangles inappropriately activate Pythagoras' theorem).
After defining when a conjecture is a consequence or a hypothesis, some operators of conjectures, consequences and hypotheses are introduced and some properties they show are studied.
The I.M.U.'s newsletter predicted that the congress would be remembered as "the occasion when this conjecture became a theorem".
The I.M.U.'s newsletter predicted that the congress would be remembered as "the occasion when this conjecture became a theorem". Ball, determined to make sure that Perelman would be there, decided to go to St . Petersburg
Foresight processes are often subject to bias due to semantic blurriness when making conjectures or predictions.
From the time in 1973 when Judith Jarvis Thomson conjectured that it was "not entirely inappropriate" that white males bear the costs of the community's "making amends" to African-Americans and women through preferential affirmative action, the affirmative action debate has been distracted by intense quarrels over who deserves what.
Origen, one of the most influential early Christian theologians, connected this prophecy with the Star of Bethlehem: Origen suggested that the magi may have decided to travel to Jerusalem when they "conjectured that the man whose appearance had been foretold along with that of the star, had actually come into the world".
For they may be demolished either by conjecture, when we shall consider whether they are true, by definition, when we shall examine whether they are relevant to the case, by quality, when we shall consider whether they are dishonourable, unfair, scandalous, inhuman, cruel, or deserve any other epithet coming under the head of quality.
This paper first introduces how Boosting, just a conjecture when proposed, was proved right, and how this proof led to the origin of AdaBoost algorithm.
I will illustrate a new example of the HMS conjecture when the nef Fano condition fails and discuss a general strategy to prove HMS for general smooth projective toric stacks.
