Abstract:
The object of this research is design as a semiotic embodiment of the modern worldview, the quintessence of which are flat ontologies. The subject of the study is parallelism in the philosophy of flat ontologies and modern flat design. The purpose of this study is to explicate the philosophical problem of modern design, which is a consequence of the unconscious expression by designers of the philosophy of flat ontologies. The philosophy of flat ontologies struggles with anthropocentrism, insisting that a person should not have a privileged ontological status compared to other objects. In the p

Abstract:
Classifications are widely used in semantic networks and decision support systems based on formal knowledge and are part of computer ontologies. Classifications and computer ontologies built on them are the result of the work of one or more experts. As a result, such classifications reflect the subjective view of the author or authors on the world and the relationship between the classes (concepts) of the created classification. In the work, the authors propose an approach that will allow assessing how correctly the classification is constructed.

However, ANT struggles with its theoretical design that may lead us to reduce agency to causation and to conceptualize actor-networks as homogeneous ontologies of force. This article proposes to regard ANT’s inability to conceptualize reflexivity and the interrelatedness of different ontologies as the fundamental problem of the theory. Drawing on Günther, it offers

One of the main contributions of this paper is the provision of an efficient and safe method, called Elect, to restore the consistency of the ABox with respect to the TBox.

Abstract: A number of recent studies have used the flat ontologies and other deflationary arguments in recent philosophy to argue for a return to Victorian materialisms, Darwinian and otherwise. In such views, the Victorian opponents of materialism end up coming across as conservative reactionaries. While such charges certainly have force, the opponents of materialism also had real philosophical weight behind their position. In particular, it's very difficult to see how any materialist philosopher, Victorian or Latourian, could answer the basic question of ethics: why should I be moral at all?

Emerging text-mining tools can help by identifying topics and distilling statements from books and articles with increased accuracy. Researchers often organize these statements into ontologies, consistent systems of reality claims. Like scientific thinking and interchange, however, text-mined information (even when accurately captured) is complex, redundant, sometimes incoherent, and often contradictory: it is rooted in a mixture of only partially consistent ontologies. We review work that models scientific reason

Abstract:
Competency Questions (CQs) are essential in ontology engineering; they express an ontology's functional requirements as natural language questions, offer crucial insights into an ontology's scope and are pivotal for various tasks, e.g. ontology reuse, testing, requirement specification, and pattern definition. Despite their importance, the practice of publishing CQs alongside ontological artefacts is not commonly adopted. We propose an approach based on Generative AI, specifically Large Language Models (LLMs) for retrofitting CQs from existing ontologies and we investigate how open LLMs (i.e.

Abstract:
Understanding and predicting the impact of environmental changes and external pressures on ecosystems is a critical challenge in ecology. The LTER-LIFE project, funded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO), addresses this challenge by advancing data-driven modeling and simulation through the development of Digital Twins of ecosystems. This initiative develops an integrated infrastructure, including a Virtual Research Environment (VRE) and associated services like catalogues and repositories, which provide findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) data, models, and tools.

Introduction. Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of affects found its further development in the works of the Canadian philosopher Brian Massoumi, who was engaged in popularizing the heritage of the French tandem of philosophers in the English- speaking environment. Massumi continues to explore society and man, based on the concepts of rhizome and the dominance of affective flows in forming social and political dimensions of people’s lives, as well as the coherence of the emergence of affect and the digital environment. Massumi argues that the influence of the affective on human behavior is extrem

Abstract:
The Critical Naturalism Manifesto is a common platform put forward as a basis for broad discussions around the problems faced by critical theory today. We are living in a time, e.g. a pandemic time, when present-day challenges exert immense pressure on social critique. This means that models of social critique should not be discussed from the point of view of their normative justification or political effects alone, but also with reference to their ability to tackle contemporary problematic issues (like the dismantlement of the welfare state, the environmental catastrophe, and the sanitary cri

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper, I critically assess two recent proposals for an interpretation-independent understanding of non-relativistic quantum mechanics: the overlap strategy (Fraser & Vickers, 2022) and the textbook account (Egg, 2021). My argument has three steps. I first argue that they presume a Quinean-Carnapian meta-ontological framework that yields flat, structureless ontologies. Second, such ontologies are unable to solve the problems that quantum ontologists want to solve. Finally, only structured ontologies are capable of solving the problems that quantum ontologists want to solve.

The majority of the students are aged 8–11 years. The types of information and knowledge organisation schemes to be identified or organised include shallow taxonomies (e.g. a list of entities, a list of features of an entity, a list of events) and simple descriptive ontologies (e.g. a sequence of events, reasons of events, relation between entities or events).

Abstract:
Despite significant advances over the past few decades, geographies of alcohol, drinking, drunkenness remain under-theorised and researched. Indeed, even when applying critical thinking, geographers have tended to unreflexively reproduce, rather than question ‘alcohol studies’ ontologies and epistemologies infused with moralising, disciplining, and normalising discourses. In response, we present three intertwined research trajectories, informed by broader human geography debates, which offer opportunities to engage with alcohol, drinking, drunkenness more carefully and critically through; rela

Abstract:
This theoretical article takes issue with how 'new materialisms' have been employed in political ecology, and it explores the 'depth ontology' of critical realism developed by Roy Bhaskar as an alternative to the 'flat ontologies' of new materialism. While political ecology was initially informed by political economy, the field has become much more heterogeneous and includes various post-structuralist, socio-constructivist, and new materialist approaches. Most, though not all, of these approaches typically destabilize science, try to break with problematic dichotomies (especially nature-societ

Abstract:
Information representation in engineering design is currently dominated by top–down approaches such as taxonomies and ontologies. While top–down approaches provide support for computational reasoning, they are primarily limited due to their static nature, limited scope, and developer-centric focus. Bottom–up approaches, such as folksonomies, are emerging as means to address the limitations of top–down approaches. Folksonomies refer to collaborative classification by users who freely assign tags to design information. They are dynamic in nature, broad in scope, and are user focused. However, th

Abstract Crop phenotypic data underpin many pre-breeding efforts to characterize variation within germplasm collections. Although there has been an increase in the global capacity for accumulating and comparing such data, a lack of consistency in the systematic description of metadata often limits integration and sharing. We therefore aimed to understand some of the challenges facing findable, accesible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) curation and annotation of phenotypic data from minor and underutilized crops.
