Feature attribution methods attempt to explain neural network predictions by identifying relevant features. However, establishing a cohesive framework for assessing feature attribution remains a challenge. There are several views through…
In a recent Comment, Kolf et al. (cond-mat/0503669) state that our analysis of the Fano resonance for Anderson impurity systems [Luo et al., Phys. Rev. Lett 92, 256602 (2004)] is incorrect. Here we want to point out that their comments are…
Withdrawn -- a revised version will appear in due course.
A response to commenter Ke Lan's comment on our paper published in Nature Communications (2023)14:5782 by J. Yan et al
The origins of consonance in human music has long been contested, and today there are three primary hypotheses: aversion to roughness, preference for harmonicity, and learned preferences from cultural exposure. While the evidence is…
We examine the effect of noise on societies of agents using an agent-based model of evolutionary norm emergence. Generally, we see that noisy societies are more selfish, smaller and discontent, and are caught in rounds of perpetual…
In 2023, Lubineau et al. published an article [1] detailing several experiments carried out with dyslexic readers. These authors attempted to measure the change in reading performance under different reading conditions using flickering…
Fairness assumptions are a valuable tool when reasoning about systems. In this paper, we classify several fairness properties found in the literature and argue that most of them are too restrictive for many applications. As an alternative…
In P\"otscher and Preinerstorfer (2022) and in the abridged version P\"otscher and Preinerstorfer (2024, published in Econometrica) we have tried to clear up the confusion introduced in Hansen (2022a) and in the earlier versions Hansen…
In a commentary published in mid-2024 (to which the present work is a direct response), a number of scientists argue that U.S. funding agencies have "politicized" the process by which grants are awarded, in service of diversifying the…
While sound emergence is used in several countries to regulate wind energy development, there is no published evidence that it is a relevant noise descriptor for this purpose. In the present work, we carried out two listening tests to…
Peer review lies at the core of the academic process, but even well-intentioned reviewers can still provide noisy ratings. While ranking papers by average ratings may reduce noise, varying noise levels and systematic biases stemming from…
Workflow nets are a well-established variant of Petri nets for the modeling of process activities such as business processes. The standard correctness notion of workflow nets is soundness, which comes in several variants. Their decidability…
In this communication we refute a criticism concerning results of our work [3] that was presented in references [1] and [2].
We respond to the criticisms of a recent paper of Buchert et al. [arXiv:1505.07800]
Recent work on adversarial examples has demonstrated that most natural inputs can be perturbed to fool even state-of-the-art machine learning systems. But does this happen for humans as well? In this work, we investigate: what fraction of…
We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while…
It is demonstrated that remarks and criticism in work [1] (arXiv:1005.2436 nucl-th) have resulted from inattentive reading of work [2] (Phys. Rev.C 81, 035501 (2010)) or just some misunderstanding and do not influence conclusions of work…
This is a letter to editor, about a previously published paper and comments.
Machine learning from training data with a skewed distribution of examples per class can lead to models that favor performance on common classes at the expense of performance on rare ones. AudioSet has a very wide range of priors over its…
