One of the prominent phenomena since 1960's is the diversity of concepts. It is to deny the standard of meta structure in judging value as a framework of truth understanding. M. Foucault says that we are living in a synchronous, parallel, and scattered epoch. In the architectural approach and interpretation of Ungers, such a phenomenon appears as multi-dimensional relations. The works of Ungers show the concrete manifestation of such thoughts since 1960's. He has exerted significant influence on German architecture through his book ‘Architecture as Theme’ and architectural works. His architecture has focuses on analogy and abstraction on the foundation of his well defined theory. As the features, it shows dialectic relations, mix of confrontation, interests in geometry and morphology. In this respects, the paper tries to find out the relationship between his architectural thoughts and the paintings of Rene Magritte in terms of the attributes of doubleness in the sense of a paradox. Ungers himself refers that he was directly influenced by Magritte.

It is an orthodox in epistemology that only those things that affect the truth conduciveness of a belief are relevant to the epistemic rationality of the belief. I criticize this orthodox. In this paper, 1 claim that the epistemic worth of a subject affects the epistemic rationality of inquiries and resulting beliefs. More specifically, I argue that it is epistemically irrational to conduct an inquiry when it is about something unworthy of knowing, and that the epistemic irrationality of an inquiry in this sense makes the resulting beliefs epistemically irrational. After presenting my argument, I defend it from various possible criticisms. Then I explicate the implications of my argument that opposes the core assumptions of contemporary epistemology.

Ying[M.S. Ying, Linguistic quantifiers modeled by Sugeno integrals, Artificial Intelligence 170(2006) 581-606] studied a framework for modeling quantifiers in natural languages in which each linguistic quantifier is represented by a family of fuzzy measures and the truth value of a quantified proposition is evaluated by using Sugeno integral. In this paper, we consider interval-valued fuzzy measures and interval quantifiers which are the generalized concepts of fuzzy measures and quantifiers, respectively. We also investigate logical properties of a first order language with interval quantifiers modeled by the Sugeno integral with respect to an interval-valued fuzzy measures.

This paper discusses jLogic, a mathematical logic education software developed by the author. jLogic is basically a MS-Windows based software that can construct first-order models, formulas and thet their satisfiablity. Logical formulas are easily input by a "keyboard" maintained by jLogic. A special finite model, called the "Toy World" can be visually cinstructed and modified. The user is supposed to answer the following 3 questions about the selected logical expression: 1. Is it a grammatically correct logical formula? 2. Is it a sentence that has a definite truth value? 3. Is th sentence true or false? When the user inputs his answer in the "Inspector window" and then presses the OK button, jLogic instantly tests the validity of the answer and tells the user the result. jLogic is freely downloaded from http://gauss.kyungpook.ac.kr/~jlogic/

The purpose of this paper is twofold. On the one hand it takes issue with Engstrom's claim that conceptual metaphors are propositional; on the other, it aims to demonstrate that the mathematical term 'mapping' is inappropriate for the analysis of metaphors. To my mind, the propositional analysis of metaphors, a wrong analysis for that matter, originates in the notion 'mapping' I argue that partial 'mapping' between propositional meanings and metaphorical meanings is either mental or psychological, with no concomitant 'truth' value. When concept metaphors represent propositionality, they lose metaphoricity; when they obtain metaphoricity, they are free of propositionality. The mathematical terms 'mapping' and 'proposition,' it is stressed, should be avoided in the analysis of concept metaphors like 'A is B' because they are confusing when applied to linguistic expression. 1 suggest that the term 'mapping' be replaced by phrases such as 'interaction between two domains,' projection from source-domain to target domain,' or 'understanding the properties of two domains between A and B,' etc. This would amount to proposing a pragmatic or cognitive theory of metaphor.

Unlike regular images, there is no ground truth for bio surface images. Result of biosurface imaging is not only significantly affected by the environment and the condition of the bio surface, it requires more detailed expression than regular images. Therefore, unlike algorithms tested on regular images, studies on bio surface images requires a highly precise optimization process. We aim to optimize the graph cut algorithm, known to be the most outstanding among the stereo visions, by considering baseline, lambda, and disparity range. Optimal results were in the range of 1~10 for lambda. The disparity ranged from -30 to -50, indicating an optimal value in a slightly higher range. Furthermore, we verified the tested optimization data using SIFT.

We develop a novel technique that can constrain the evolutionary track of the epoch of reionization (EoR) by applying the convolutional neural network (CNN) to the 21-cm differential brightness temperature. We use 21cmFAST, a fast semi-numerical cosmological 21-cm signal simulator, to produce mock 21-cm map between z=6-13. We design a CNN architecture that predicts the volume-averaged neutral hydrogen fraction from the given 21-cm map. The estimated neutral fraction has a good agreement with its truth value even after smoothing the 21-cm map with somewhat realistic choices of beam size and the frequency bandwidth of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA). Our technique could be further utilized to denoise the 21-cm map or constrain the properties of the radiation sources.

Purpose - Recent rapid environmental changes in the hospital industry are accelerating the spread of customer satisfaction management. Customers' desires have become diversified and advanced; in the past, customers tended to preferred popularized and standardized care, whereas they now prefer individualized and differentiated care, based on an increase in income. Specifically, this study tries to analyze the mediating effects of factors that affect the configuration portion of customer value and relationship quality (customer trust and relationship commitment) by investigating the impacts and configuration factor of customer value on relationship quality and determining how these factors impact customer loyalty directly or indirectly. Research design, data, and methodology - This study aims to determine the customer value factors that impact the perceptions of dental hospital customers, how these factors impact relationship quality and customer loyalty, and the causal relationship of these factors, and to verify the research model based on previous research. To increase the validity and reliability of the questionnaire, the authors of this study constructed basic questions using measurement tools already verified for reliability and validity in existing studies. In this study, customer value is defined as customers' recognizing value by exchanging goods or services and is measured using a five-point Likert scale using 19 questions about the 4-Ds, such as convenience value, quick service, response value, and trustworthiness. For each question, "very low" was set at 1 point and "very high" at 5 points. Customer trust, relationship commitment, and customer loyalty are also measured using a five-point Likert 5-point scale (1 = very low, 5 = very high) based on previous studies. Results - For customer value, trustworthiness and quick service are shown to have direct significant positive impacts on customer loyalty. For customer value and quality of the relationship (customer confidence and commitment), trustworthiness, response value, confidence value, and quick service are shown to have a significant positive impact on customer truth, in order of impact. For the relationship between customer value and commitment, quick service and response value are shown to have significant positive impact. Customer confidence has a very high positive influence on commitment. For the relationship between the quality of the relationship (customer confidence and commitment) and customer loyalty, customer confidence is shown to have more of an impact than commitment, in terms of a direct influence of customer loyalty. Commitment showed a positive impact on customer loyalty. For the relationship between customer confidence and customer loyalty, commitment showed a mediating effect. Conclusions - Many additional variables could apply; this study focused on customer value, quality of the relationship, and customer loyalty. In particular, there will be significant value in identifying the relationships among customer value, relationship quality, and customer loyalty by using impact factors for customer value; ensuring external validity by expanding denotation and applying the findings to other service industries; and undertaking continuous research. This study has limited generalization potential because the target for this survey was located only in the Seoul area.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the psychological importance of golf player's clothing selection by phenomenological analysis. The study subjects were male and female golf players who participated in the golf tour from October 2017 to March 2018, and a total of 4 male players and 2 female players were selected using the snow ball sampling method. For data analysis, we first coded what we got through in-depth interviews and observations of participation to be organized and analyzed first. Second, classification was conducted based on major themes or phenomena, and meaningful interpretation and research were conducted. In addition, to increase the truth and validity of this study, the true value, applicability, consistency and neutrality of the qualitative research process proposed by Guba & Lincoln (1981). The results of the analysis are as follows. Golf-wear for me, Jinx, My golf wear are my face. Conclusion, Through this study, you can understand the psychological implications of the golf-wear chosen by the golf player and expect positive effects to provide golf player's feedback in the course of making the golf-wear.

The present study investigated the cognitive mechanism underlying online processing of Korean syntactic (for example, A bed/a clock belongs to/doesn't belong to the furniture "침대는/시계는 가구에 속한다/속하지 않는다") and lexical negation (for example, A tiger/a butterfly has/doesn't have a tail "호랑이는/나비는 꼬리가 있다/없다") using an ERP(Event-related potentials) technique and a truth-value verification task. 23 Korean native speakers were employed for the whole experiment and 15's brain responses (out of 23) were recorded for the ERP analysis. The behavioral results (i.e. verification task scores) show that there is universal pattern of the accuracy and response time for verification process: True-Affirmative (high accuracy and short latency) > False-Affirmative > False-Negated > True-Negated. However, the components (early N400 & P600) reflecting the immediate processing of a negation operator were observed only in lexical negation. Moreover, the ERP patterns reflecting an effect of truth value were not identical: N400 effect was observed in the true condition compared to the false condition in the lexically negated sentences, whereas Positivity effect (like early P600) was observed in the false condition compared to the true condition in the syntactically negated sentences. In conclusion, the form and location of negation operator varied by languages and negation types influences the strategy and pattern of online negation processing, however, the final representation resulting from different computational processing of negation appears to be language universal and is not directly affected by negation types.
