Yet another example of how so-called "#AI" entrenches existing problems in academic research.

New theoretical release now available via Zenodo:
https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18701758
This publication (DE) presents the foundational framework behind my recent work on hybrid system architectures. It develops a structural model of recursive identity and outlines the minimal conditions under which an information process maintains continuity across change.

Researchers planning to do #SystematicReviews must now plan to filter out the #JunkScience. That's difficult, time-consuming, error-prone, and demoralizing. It causes some researchers to drop their plans and forces others to move more slowly.

Haven't blogged in a long long time.
But I just about found time tonight to write a tiny bit more about PCI Registered Reports (@pcirr) and a recent peer-review experience that made me realise the community need for PCI Registered Reports:

I'm proud to have published my first scientific paper as preprint on arXiv! https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.08683
I investigated the use of augmented reality for reinforcement learning agents by integrating Meta Research's SAM (Segment Anything) zero-shot model into the RL training data pipeline. Like equipping a virtual entity (the RL agent) with AR goggles.

Critical Metascience:
2022 has been a bumper year for what I’d call “critical metascience” - work that takes a step back and offers a critical perspective in the field.

Replicability and Theory:
“Our results suggest that many of the practices that have been proposed as a means to improve the replicability of psychological research—such as open data and methods…preregistration and Registered Reports…and basing conclusions on Bayesian inference…or p < .005 rather than p < .05…—do indeed improve confidence in replicability among our sample.”

@MarkRubin This is massively simplistic. Hypotheses include the criteria for delineating phenomena in need of explanation, satisfaction criteria for success, disciplinary standards and practices, and taxonomies of subjects under investigation. IMO.

What’s a hypothesis?
“A hypothesis is not simply a guess about the result of an experiment. It is a proposed explanation that can predict the outcome of an experiment. A hypothesis has two components: (1) an explanation and (2) a prediction. A prediction simply isn’t useful on its own.” (Haroz, 2014)

A “quietist” response to the replication crisis:
“The quietist approach proposes that we should just accept that it is in the nature of science that we get things wrong, and that this is particularly true with sciences in early stages of development.”

Looks like a great talk from Stephan Guttinger on Questionable Research Practices
“What should be abandoned is not the idea of questioning practice, but the idea that there is a class of questionable research practices.”
