Pineal Ghost
Descartes believed the pineal gland was where the mind and body met. He picked Pineal gland because it is unpaired and sits at the center of the brain, which made it seem like a plausible centre. He split reality into two substances. The physical body and the non-physical mind and he then explainee how they talked to each other. Two completely different kinds of things, causally interacting. I've thought about this in Cartesian terms longer than I should have. Mind, body, some mysterious […]https://ridiculousbharath.wordpress.com/2026/05/01/pineal-ghost/

The Evolution of an Industrial Standard: From Paper to Ontology
As usual, all summit sessions are zoom sessions on Wednesdays at Noon US/Canada Eastern Time, and each session lasts one hour. The summit is open to the public and no registration is necessary. All summit sessions are recorded and are available on the summit web pages and on the Ontology Summit YouTube channel.
Title: P2: taxonomy and ontology [2024-11-19 Tue]
Prompting (CARP)” from Text Classification via Large
Language Models https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.08377
You ask model to extract features from text and build
reasoning based on question and features and finally give
short answer. This 3 steps mantra give generalization
boost for classification tasks by LLMs. (variant of
chain-of-thought)

Despite the remarkable success of large-scale Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT-3, their performances still significantly underperform fine-tuned models in the task of text classification. This is due to (1) the lack of reasoning ability in addressing complex linguistic phenomena (e.g., intensification, contrast, irony etc); (2) limited number of tokens allowed in in-context learning. In this paper, we introduce Clue And Reasoning Prompting (CARP). CARP adopts a progressive reasoning strategy tailored to addressing the complex linguistic phenomena involved in text classification: CARP first prompts LLMs to find superficial clues (e.g., keywords, tones, semantic relations, references, etc), based on which a diagnostic reasoning process is induced for final decisions. To further address the limited-token issue, CARP uses a fine-tuned model on the supervised dataset for $k$NN demonstration search in the in-context learning, allowing the model to take the advantage of both LLM's generalization ability and the task-specific evidence provided by the full labeled dataset. Remarkably, CARP yields new SOTA performances on 4 out of 5 widely-used text-classification benchmarks, 97.39 (+1.24) on SST-2, 96.40 (+0.72) on AGNews, 98.78 (+0.25) on R8 and 96.95 (+0.6) on R52, and a performance comparable to SOTA on MR (92.39 v.s. 93.3). More importantly, we find that CARP delivers impressive abilities on low-resource and domain-adaptation setups. Specifically, using 16 examples per class, CARP achieves comparable performances to supervised models with 1,024 examples per class.

all to universal objects and to short living events,
processes, etc.. That connects with each other by
universal-universal, universal-particular,
particular-particular. So the defference between entities
is not “what or how” but what is more general, it may be
as object and as process connection.

(or my personally) knowledge is narrow.
There is Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) approach that divides #dailyreport #taxonomy #ontology #duality #dualism #binary #promptengineering
In this second of two essays, I discuss the immorality of property, even deeper than the first post yesterday.

I've argued that property rights are immoral. Now, I've shared a pair of posts that argue at a deeper level. This is the first:
