🎉 New Article!

We’re delighted to share a newly published article in the ScienceDirect journal Computers & Education: X Reality, by Prof. Lukas Liu and colleagues of the HKU Faculty of Education:
“Mapping Evidence-Based XR Experiences in Archaeology Education: A Systematic Review”

This study explores the use of Extended Reality (XR), including VR and AR, in archaeology education. Through a systematic review of #empirical research, it examines the relationships between specific XR design elements and different learning experiences and outcomes, suggesting that meaningful learning in XR depends not only on immersive technology, but on thoughtful instructional design that supports disciplinary thinking and skills development.

👀The Neural Network Factory: An LLM-Generated Dataset 👀

We leveraged GPT-5 to automatically generate a diverse dataset of neural networks suitable for empirical experimentation.

The dataset contains 608 neural networks implemented in PyTorch, each defined by explicit design choices across four key dimensions: architecture type, task category, input data characteristics, and model complexity.

-- Work led by Nadia DAOUDI

#Zoomposium with #Walter #von #Lucadou: “At the #boundaries between #physics and #psychology - #hauntings, #ghosts, and other #physical #phenomena”

It turned out that von Lucadou is anything but a #spiritual #ghosthunter; on the contrary, he is more rooted in #science and #rational, using #empirical ##methodology to try to explain #physically explainable #phenomena.

“God loves atheists. The former ones make the most compelling theists because they're so empirically familiar with how atheists think.”

The 2nd part of our joint #interview with Philipp and Georg now also deals with possible #neurophilosophical #interpretations of the #empirical #findings from the 1st part and attempts to interpret them with regard to the phenomenon of “consciousness”.
