Unfolding Algorithms
section{Unfolding Algorithms}label{sec:UnfAlg}
% **************************** Define Graphics Path **************************
The main software package for cross–section extraction (unfolding) in T2K is called the
xsTool~cite{xsTool}. xsTool integrates different unfolding algorithms from
RooUnfold~cite{RooUnfAlg} and is responsible for the calculation of the error propagation.
Generally, the unfolding algorithms can be categorized into three main groups:
begin{itemize}
item bin–by–bin, item matrix inversion, and item Bayesian methods.
end{itemize}
The RooUnfold package supports bin–by–bin, unregularized matrix inversion, Singular Value

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) technique provides a pseudo–inverse for the detector response

A = USV^T,

where, U and V are orthogonal $m times m$ and $n times n$ matrices, respectively, $U^T = U^{–

and the columns of U and V represent the left– and right–singular vectors, respectively.
This process could be visualized as a rotation by an orthogonal matrix, then stretching by a diagonal

how to discover subtle relationships that might exist between the documents by applying
dimensionality reduction to remove noise from the data and better apply the statistical data mining
methods in any given the collection of documents will be tested .
The phrase–based document similarity approach to compute the pair–wise similarities of documents
based on the Suffix Tree Document (STD) model will experimented in. The results will show that
the performance obtained by the proposed measure should be better than that achieved by other
measures, and the similarity between two sets of documents will evaluated on several real–world
data sets for specific problems.

Argumentative Essay On Emerging Adulthood
"It's a development that predates the current economic doldrums, and no one knows yet what the
impact will be... – The traditional cycle seems to have gone off course, as young people remain
untethered to romantic partners or to permanent homes, going back to school for lack of better
options, traveling, avoiding commitments, competing ferociously for unpaid internships or
temporary (and often grueling) Teach for America jobs, forestalling the beginning of adult life"
(Henig 199). This quote by Robin Marantz Henig is a very powerful portrayal of my generation.
Today, people from the ages of 18 to 29 tend to focus more on themselves and what they want to do,
rather than getting married and acquiring jobs. However, these young adults that experience
"emerging adulthood" tend to be part of a higher socioeconomic status and are "privileged enough"
to put off the responsibilities of adulthood; on the other hand, people who have a lower
socioeconomic status tend to grow up faster and have more responsibilities. Arnett's "emerging
adulthood" argument's biggest weakness is that it demonstrates that "emerging adulthood" is not
universal. Since this period is only acceptable for the "well off" kids I believe we should reject the
idea of this period.
American society should not try to include emerging adulthood as a legitimate life stage. This notion
that people in their twenties should be held to a lower standard regarding life progress is absurd.
What this does is it coddles and babies' younger adults and tells them that everything is okay, you
have the next seven years to be a kid. This encourages poor decisions regarding marriage, finances,
and finding a career. If this, hypothetically, were to be a generally accepted idea, consider how many
people would end up without a life plan. This leads Arnett's emerging adulthood transitions from
twenties to thirties, to thirties into forties. Statistically, a person who has begun a legitimate career
by the age of twenty–four or twenty–five, will be leaps and bounds ahead of someone just entering
the workforce in the same career at the age of thirty or later. On a different note, emerging adulthood
does not really include individuals who are pursuing a master's degree

Reasons For The For Destitute
Despite the fact that occasionally it may be difficult to check the careful number of vagrants through
the world, some measurable figures have demonstrated that the globe has as yet confronting this
worldwide issue for quite a while. The rate of vagrancy in our general public is expanding because
of numerous variables. Be that as it may, what is destitute? Destitute is characterized as the state of
individuals without standard house or safe house who live in roads or stations. A few individuals
trust that absence of moderate lodging is the greatest reason for vagrancy. Notwithstanding,
emotional sickness and unemployment issues have directed individuals to wind up destitute.
Vagrancy is a real wonder in our general public because of the quantity of individuals living in the
road. The reasons for destitute are various. The principal motivation behind why individuals get to
be destitute is on the grounds that they have a dysfunctional behavior. Most importantly, a person
with memory impedance is not have the capacity to work or to do any gainful movement so that
he/she can 't procure cash professionally. This condition obliged the individual for asking to survive.
Therefore, the rationally sick individual begins to feel more good in the road, and spend all the day
and night in this spot. In the article "Getting to be and Remaining Homeless" (Morrell–Bellai,

Who Is Sherlock Holmes A Misunderstood Man
A Misunderstood Man People strive every day to be the best individual they can be. They are taught
that characteristics such as humility, loyalty, kindness, respect, and being strong–willed are all
admired by others, and thus within society. But how can one individual be admired for possessing
these characteristics when society focuses only on the negative aspects of people? It is especially
hard to live up to such high expectations when an individual is not even recognized for
implementing good behavior and possessing noble characteristics. This idea of society's negative
outlook is present in Arthur Conan Doyle's, "A Scandal in Bohemia", through the main character of
Sherlock Holmes. Holmes is portrayed in an undesirable light based off ... Show more content on

Watson, for example is Holmes' only real friend which is evident as Watson describes his daily
routine of life. Holmes associates with Watson because he has earned his respect even though
Watson tends to focus on the negative at times. He helps Holmes in the Bohemia case and is
rewarded with appreciation for his doings. Irene Adler who was originally the antagonist in the short
story quickly wins the approval of Holmes. She foils his overall plan of retrieving the picture from
her and being able to help the King. Watson tells of Holmes' impression of Adler, "To Sherlock
Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name"
(Doyle 7). Her being referred to as "the woman" makes sense since Holmes has such a high degree
of respect for her since she was able to defeat him. He met his match and is able to acknowledge and
respect her for her high degree of intelligence as well. The King of Bohemia on the other hand, did
not earn the respect of Holmes for his lack of respect towards Irene Adler and his soon to be wife. In
"A Scandal in Bohemia", the King shows his true colors by the conclusion of the story when talking
of Adler, "Did I not tell you how quick and resolute she was? Would she not have made an
admirable queen? Is it not a pity that she was not on my level?" (Doyle 30) In this statement it is
evident the King sees himself above those who are not in his station such as Adler and most likely
Holmes and Watson as well. It is also clear that he does not love his future wife, since he so readily
thinks that Adler could have been a better match for him. After this, Holmes obviously refuses to
shake the King's hand, showing his disapproval for his actions and overall demeanor. Holmes only
respects those worthy of it such as Watson and

If Shakespeare Can Do It
If Shakespeare Can Do It Because my wife has an English degree, she always defends her made up
words and grammar rules by simply stating, "Shakespeare did it, I can too." Now, I don't always
agree with her just–because–I–have–an–English–degree attitude, but we do agree on one small
thing: The written English language needs a singular gender–neutral pronoun that replaces the
clunky alternatives English speakers have now. English is a relatively young language compared to
most others still around today. Currently, we are taught that the use of singular they is incorrect, and
instead we should use either "he," "him or her," or "s/he," when referring to someone whose gender
is unclear. Others say English writers should move toward a singular pronoun to use with a singular
antecedent.
How perfect is it that English speakers already use this particular pronoun? Singular they. Think
about it. Typically, when people speak, they do not use "his or her" or "s/he." People use "they"
when referring to one person of an undetermined gender. For example, "Someone left their coat
here, we should let them know." That makes perfect sense to us. We know that "them" in this
sentence refers to the singular antecedent "someone."
Language evolves alongside it's society, because of this, you don't see many English speakers still
using "thou" to refer to one person. As many people know, singular thou was a more formal and
polite way of saying "you". Sometime in the 18th century, the use of

The Design Arguments For The Existence Of God
The design arguments for the existence of God center on the principle that an intelligent designer, in
this case God, has crafted our world so that each item has a purpose and significant meaning.
Additionally, the world is a complex and sometimes enigmatic system of elements which work
together to sustain life in a way that some argue is unlikely to have occurred by pure chance alone.
Therefore, some philosophers credit a divine being as the source of this order and purpose in the
universe. Furthermore, William Paley offers a version of the design argument in which he employs
simple analogy between a watchmaker and God to demonstrate God's presence. However, critics of
this approach to proving God's existence object to this simplistic analogy of the origin of natural
components in the world and instead argue that an evolutionary perspective better explains the
existence of such objects and therefore, for the sake of simplicity, a divine being does not need to
remain in the equation. As a result, both the objections of flaws in the format of Paley's argument
and the needless inclusion of God as a designer cannot successfully be refuted by supporters of
Paley.
Arguably the most famous design argument was proposed by philosopher William Paley who used
the analogy of a watch and a watchmaker to illustrate his point of view. He claimed that a watch was
created with many interconnected parts which moved together in very specific and precise motions
to allow for its intended

The Giver Is Better Than The Giver
Comparatively many experiences thru out life that give views of two kinds of human beings – those
who give and those who take. Every day people make the decisions about whether to act as takers or
givers. Success and satisfaction in life depends on how much we care for the happiness of others.
Success is often determined by a person's achievements, however, it also applies to one's
relationship with others. Many people are naturally reluctant to seek help when they feel as though
their compassion is being taken advantage of by takers. This is especially true when people equate
being a giver with being weak as many may think it is pointless, particularly in the different ethnic

The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat Summary
"Each of us is a singular narrative, which is constructed, continually, unconsciously, by, through, and

our spoken narrations. Biologically, physiologically, we are not so different from each other;
historically, as narratives–we are each of us unique."–The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, by
Oliver Sacks. There are approximately 7.1 billion people in the world, all of whom have their own

The Issue Of Personal Identity Essay
If persons persist over time then by what criteria do we determine their identity at different times?
This is the issue of personal identity over time which continues to plague philosophers. What is it
that allows me to say I am the same person today as I was yesterday or I will be tomorrow? Am I
actually the same person? There has been no general consensus on the answer to this question.
However many have proposed solutions to this question. When it comes to this hard problem of why
persons last or persist over time there are two opposing points of view points. There is the
perdurance or four dimensionalism view, which maintains that objects persist as a series of temporal
parts that are simply related to each other. The other view is that of endurance which states that
objects endure over time by being wholly present at each and every time they exist and must be
numerically identical to each other in order to be the same thing, in such a way that they are one and
the same. This paper seeks to explore what is the criterion or criteria of person identity by which we
determine one person at one time and a person at another time to be one and the same. In order to
answer this question the perdurance and endurance approaches to the problem of personal identity
over time will be explored. These views will be explored through the discussion of four prominent
philosophers in the views. In this paper I will propose ultimately Rosenkranzt's endurance view, the

The next stage is to implement the care package, ensuring all the care staffs involved are made
aware of the individuals' needs and preferences. After 6 weeks we would then review the care
package, making any adjustments if required, and following that the care package would be

situation then a review would be carried out at an earlier date in order to address the change.
Research was carried out by 'Smale et al (1993)' which suggested three different models of
assessment. One model was the 'Questioning Model' which suggests that the assessor leads the
process by questioning the individual and developing a more 'service led' assessment. Another
model is the 'Procedural Model'. I believe this method would be used more commonly be social
workers when means testing an individual for a suitable care package. The 'Procedural Model' is

Bilinear resampling is known also bilinear filtering or bilinear interpolation. Bilinear resampling is
used to smooth out when they are displayed smaller or larger than they actually are. the bilinear
resampling is done by interpolating between the four pixels nearest to the point that best represents
that pixel
(usually in the middle or upper left of the pixel). The bilinear resampling takes a weighted average
of 4 pixels in the original image nearest to the new pixel location The averaging process modifies
the original pixel values and creates entirely new digital values in the output image. Bilinear
resampling results are smoother,accurate,without stairstepped effect. But it has some limitations that
is edges are smoothed and some extremes of the data file values are lost. It is expressed
mathematically as follows Assuming i and j are integer parts of x and y, respectively; bilinear
resampling is defined by:
F(x;y) =Wi;j[F(i;j)] +Wi+ 1;j[F(i+ 1;j)]
+Wi;j+ 1[F(i;j + 1)] +Wi+ 1;j+ 1[F(i+ 1;j+ 1)]

The Enlightenment And The Enlightenment
The Enlightenment was a period where reason was utilized to answer questions, however, it was
also a period in which religion was a huge part of society, especially under a monarch rule in which
God had appointed a King and under his reign everyone followed his views. Years earlier, many
began to question the church's authority and split in views, giving rise to Protestants a division
existing among Europe. Years later during the 18th century individuals began using reason to
explain certain situations, many utilized nature surrounding them to justify their answers concerning
religion. Difference in opinion was extremely dangerous to the monarch as it could spark a rebellion
too ultimately challenge the church. Existing within Europe were two types of individuals, those
who followed the church and believed in everything they said and those who critiqued the church
and the monarch yet heavily believed it was necessary for society to behave. Hence, atheism was
despised and throughout the article from the encyclopedia, author Abbe Yvon attempts to discard the
idea that society can have order without believing in a supreme being. Through Abbe Yvon's text on
atheists, we can learn and affirm that society diverse as it was through religion and beliefs, 18th
century Europe did not tolerate atheism and immediately categorized as threatening individuals.

Progress always inspired him. However, at some points, his ideas are famously hard to be
understood fully and rightly, for example, the notion of God in his works. In Hegel's thinking,

The presentation of the character which come from the illusion of deist arguments does not give a
sign giving up the project of a religion based on Reason. The presupposition of the existence of God
is the initiating point and can only be infer when the existence is already known in certain and
granted. The God in Kant is the as non–Absolute and the Actual belief, the faith in God's
existence. For Kant, the ultimate goal of the concept of God is the moral of human being. No one is
possible to rationally prove the existence of God however the moral life cannot begin without God's
existence. It seems like the existence of Supreme Being is essential and unconditioned. In addition,
in the imperfect life of human Beings, God is the perfect Being whom they can compare their
knowledge and behaviors with. And based on the comparison, individuals could create some criteria
for themselves to correct their actions and knowledge. However, human being alone cannot be able
to reach the Absolute Being through their owned underwent knowledge: instead, the thing they can
do to unreachable knowledge and God is to presuppose the factuality of supreme phenomenon
indicated as transcendental object of something they cannot even explain what it is in itself. For

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Audio Watermarking
Abstract: With the increasing usage of digital multimedia, the protection of intellectual property
rights problem has become a very important issue. Digital watermarking is now drawing attention as
a new method of protecting multimedia content from unauthorized copying. Over the past two
decades, many digital watermarking algorithms have been developed, each with its own advantages
and disadvantages. The main aim of this paper is to present a survey report of recently done work in
audio watermarking fields.

LITERATURE SURVEY
The audio watermarking has been a hot research area for protection of digital sound content. Many
researchers have suggested algorithms for that. Some has also done a good survey of previous work
done. That helps fellow researchers to work forward. In [1] Komal et. al presented a survey report
on various audio watermarking algorithms. They divided the work into three main categories: spread
spectrum algorithm, amplitude modification, replica method, dither watermarking and self marking
method. As per the author the spread spectrum method has the problem of synchronisation and time
consumed is higher whereas replica is good for synchronisation but echo handling is worst.
Amplitude modification method needs large channel capacity and introduces noise too. Overall self
marking method is good for synchronisation and robust for watermarking. Ali Al–Haj [2] in his
paper proposed solution for shortcomings of spread spectrum method is overcome by combining it
with singular value decomposition for high rate of robustness. To make it more robust the
watermark bits are inserted diagonally into wavelet transformed input audio signals and a
controlling gain parameter is introduced. This method also

Identity Synthesis Essay
As humans, identity is relevant to every one of us. It allows us to be defined by our unique,
complex, and individual characteristics rather than a broader classification like species. Beyond this,
it further distinguishes us from other animals because the concept lets us have a sense of who we are
and how we relate to the world around us. You touch on this in your section about individuality as
well as your section on self–awareness. I appreciate these points because they are understandable
and relatable. The essay contains some glaring errors, but the paper shows promise in its current
state. Simply proofreading, especially searching for the errors I will mention, will drastically
improve it and allow you to improve and add to the content. Even though you can expand your

I only noticed seperate instead of separate. Even though easily misspelled words are strewn
throughout your paper, you manage to spell each one correctly. Along with your impeccable
spelling, you employ advanced vocabulary like, fundamental, consciousness, and, brilliance.

will strengthen your paper immensely. Implementing sophisticated vocab will also fix one of the
paper's biggest issues. Approximately sixty–three out of eighty–three lines contain a variation of the

sentences may only require switching the order of words, but others will need a new verb to replace

Modern Technology And Its Impact On Society
Before modern technology, men would band together for the protection of their families. History has
proven people group together for survival, whether that be warmth, food, or protection. The idea
was that a group is stronger and more profitable than one person acting alone. Each tribe or
gathering of individuals working together is considered a society. A society is nothing more than a
group of people living together for a common purpose, or simply because it is more convenient. But,
if all societies were thriving entities, then we would not know the hardships that have repeated
throughout history, such as, poverty and famine. On the contrary, a society that works well is a
society that works for the well–being of its individual members. A high functioning and successful
society is built on a foundation of trust and equality and enforced by a governing body. Trust in
people is merely a relationship of reliance and an intrinsic part of human nature. It is established at
the family level and expands outward as the child matures. Each being depends on their families to
provide as one depends on educators to teach. Furthermore, trust is necessary for institutions such as
schools, hospitals, businesses, and even the government to effectively operate. The workforce

compression techniques are presented by using existing techniques such as Singular value
decomposition, wavelet difference reduction (WDR) and Adaptive wavelet difference reduction
(ASWDR). The SVD has been taken as a standard technique to hybrid with WDR and ASWDR.
Firstly SVD is combined with WDR (SVD–WDR) and after that it is combined with its advance
version that is ASWDR (SVD–ASWDR) in order to achieve better image quality and higher
compression rate. These two techniques are implemented or tested on several images and results are
compared in terms of PSNR, MSE and CR.

Montaigne – of Cannibals
Acceptance and understanding into a persons society is one of the major goals that people strive to
achieve. There is a natural tendency for the individual to be compelled to join the majority. Many
times, however, a person will change themselves to fit into the group instead of having the group
change itself for the person. This forces a person to take action, form opinions or adopt customs that
do not reflect their own beliefs. Montaigne addresses the differences between two distinctly

Descartes Belief in God Essay
Descartes and God
In his groundbreaking work, Meditations on First Philosophy, the French philosopher Rene
Descartes lays the groundwork for many philosophical principles by attempting to establish a bold
and lasting knowledge (171)1. The foundations for knowledge Descartes established would go on
to influence a plethora of other philosophers and philosophical works. Descartes argues in his
meditations first from the point of view of complete skepticism, using skepticism as a tool in order
to discover what is real. Through this method, Descartes explains the existence of man as a
thinking thing, the capacity for human error, the overall trustworthiness of our senses, the
existence of a physical world, the mind and body as separate ... Show more content on

Descartes first uses a scientific cause–and–effect principle to claim that his clear idea of God is
proof of God's existence. Descartes claims that the light of nature has reveled that there is at least
as much in a complete efficient cause as in its effect (178). By using this principle, Descartes
claims that since his clear perception of God is a supremely perfect being, and since there is as much
reality in his idea of God as in its cause, then God must exist as the only being with as much reality
as his idea of God. Since Descartes has just proven God is the pinnacle of complete perfection and
deception always contain(s) imperfection, then God cannot be an evil deceiver as Descartes earlier
hypothesized (183).
Descartes also delves into how the idea of God must come from God himself. Since God cannot be
taken in through senses, and since Descartes himself didn't create the idea of God, Descartes
claims that the idea of God must be innate...like my idea of myself (182). Descartes uses this
argument to claim that God put this idea into me...like a craftsman's mark on his work (182).
Descartes now sees himself and mankind created in God's own image, and since he has proven God
is perfect, God wouldn't have created man specifically deceive them or to give them the capacity to
err. According to this premise, Descartes infers that our senses aren't made to err and will deliver
truths when used correctly. Descartes deduces man's ability to err stems from

What Is The Tone In Prose For Children By Barbauld
In her 'Preface' to Hymns in Prose for Children, Anna Laetitia Barbauld affirms that:
That Barbauld is a believing woman is incontrovertible: she seeks, after all, to 'impress devotional
feelings' upon the minds of her young readers. It is also evident, however, that Barbauld is not
especially interested in communicating scriptural minutiae and theological specificities to her
readers: the Hymns, as Lynne Vallone notes, mostly 'preach analogically to the children of
privilege' – children for whom 'the pastoral world of the Hymns', where praising God 'is the only
imperative', is a recognisable world – 'to love God: as [they] respect and are awed by the beauty of
nature so should [they] be thankful to and praise the God who is the Creator of Nature'. Barbauld
intimates, in fact, that the phenomena and processes of the 'natural', or physical, world corroborate
the existence of a divine presence; in discussing the natural order of things, and in encouraging the
reader to both look out for and make note of ecological patterns and quirks, Barbauld seems to
insinuate, in turn, that religion cannot be taught in churches and classrooms – that it must, instead,
be learned spontaneously through one's observations of the universe.
It is, of course, possible that Barbauld believed children incapable of grasping orthodox
constructions, or interpretations, of God and His designs. In her 'Preface' to the Hymns, she

Derek Parrfit Personal Identity Summary
Derek Parfit suggests that we as individuals separate the notions of identity and survival. Parfit has
two beliefs that are most commonly thought to be important to the earliest discussions of personal
identity. His first belief is that all questions about personal identity must have an answer. The second
belief is that there are matters most important to us, having to do with survival, memory, and
responsibility, which cannot be decided unless the question of personal identity is answered (Parfit).
In order to be able to decide if I am at fault for a future deed, I need to be able to answer if I am the
same person. Parfit thinks that that these ideas are wrong. He applies a series of genius thought
examinations that deal with fission and fusion. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
It is rather odd but he almost uses mathematical investigations in his studies. In certain scenarios, he
seems to be using examples that are inspired by science fiction or shows such as Star Trek. He uses
anything that he can to explore our feelings about identity (Blakemore). Parfit believes that since
there is no actual description of personal identity, people truly do not exist apart from their
segments. In his eyes, reality can be viewed as impersonally. Everyone could know all the facts
about an individual's existence yet not be able to say whether the person has survived. In his
conclusion of his essay Personal Identity, Parfit states that the human race is wrong when
assuming that personal identity is what matters in survival. Instead, he offers that psychological
relatedness and continuity are what really matters. According to him, people are nothing more than
brain and bodies. However, identity should not and cannot be reduced to either. Identity isn't as
certain as we sometimes make it out to be. Sometimes people suppose so because they are

Flaws Of Utilitarianism
English philosopher and social critic Jeremy Bentham argues that happiness and pleasure is what

right depends on the amount of happiness or unhappiness an individual expresses from the action
that takes place.
To understand this theory, let us look at an example otherwise known as the Trolley Problem. The

Utilitarianism is primarily nonpartisan which at first seems like a utopian mindset in comparison to
the world today, but at deeper thought it gets increasingly more disturbing. Like the example stated
earlier, it would be terrible to have to choose between your mother or a stranger in a dire situation.
However, emotional connection has no meaning in this ideology. The theory also has a flaw with
outcomes always justifying the means. This means that it doesn't matter how one achieves happiness
or pleasure, as long as it's the final outcome. For example, the Black Plague was a terrible epidemic
to have crossed the nation, but the outcomes, such as the decrease in overpopulation and the
advancements in medicine, made it seem like it was what needed because of the positive results.
Lastly, this theory has a knack for lacking in rights meaning if the majority does not care for a
minority and wants to kick them out of a certain location, Utilitarianism will defend the majority
since it will have the highest amount of happiness or pleasure. Though Utilitarianism has many
controversial factors, it also has respectable points as

It is like you wouldn't know that white lacks color if you did not already know that there were
colors. You would not walk around seeing all white and wonder Where's the blue? unless a greater
being put the idea of blue in you. Here is another objection to his argument that Descartes
considers:
Perhaps I am something greater than I myself understand. Perhaps all these perfections that I am
attributing to God are somehow in me potentially, although they do not yet assert themselves and are
not yet actualized. For I now observe that my knowledge is gradually being increased, and I see
nothing standing in the way of its being increased more and more to infinity. Moreover, I see no
reason why, with my knowledge thus increased, I could not acquire all the remaining perfections of
God. And, finally, if the potential for these perfections is in me already, I see no reason why this
potential would not suffice to produce the idea of these perfections. (77)
In other words, maybe Descartes could think up the idea of infinity, because he is getting more and
more perfect, moving in that direction, and that enables him to imagine perfection. If Descartes was
practicing running and he was running shorter miles everyday: 7 minute mile, 6 minute mile, 5

Persuasive Essay On Confer Suicide
Suicide is an unreasonable craving to pass on. Suicide is a side effect and indication of genuine
gloom. Melancholy is a treatable issue, however frequently the treatment requires significant

as a man who is discouraged, feels the invigorating impacts of a stimulant solution, they will, in any
case, feel discouraged, yet have more vitality. It is amid this time in treatment that many individuals
swing to suicide and self–destructive acts (Roy Alec 1986).
Individuals confer suicide consistently on the planet. It is a revolting however honest thing on the
planet as we probably are aware it today. A few people's circumstances placed them in a more

affects a person's life. Youngsters that experience family issues, for example, their folks getting

Analysis Of Rene Descartes ' Theory Of God Essay
For generations in time, the approximative belief of God in conceptual value has been imbued in the
heart of the human race as a core valve in man's history. From antiquity to contemporary
modernism, there has always been a diversified integration composed of believers and non–
believers of God. The assemblage of those who have pledged their allegiance to God foster a like–
minded relation to one religious group or another. On the other hand, rationalist – freethinkers as I
would like to call them, postulate the perception of God to be inexplicable and therefore attempt to
pursue the answers by means of scientific methods. In proportional relation to our modern day life
with the development of technology and advancement of sciences, we still have not found the

scholars who have attempted to answer this question, we shall examine René Descartes' approach on

Having a firm conviction to catholicism, Descartes, unprovided with doubt, held strong regards to
the existence of God. He makes the aforementioned clear in the introduction of Meditations on
First Philosophy. Descartes addresses that we must hold to regard strong convictions of our faith in
God and his existence thereof, because it is so instructed in the Holy Writings, and, conversely, that

For instance, Maya Angelou's knowledge influenced her identity as an author, poet, and civil rights
activist. Angelou wrote about racism in the south with personal experience, but fully understood the
extent and was able to become who she was with her knowledge. Without her education, Angelou
would not have been able to write such beautiful, knowledgeable, and influential pieces. In
Graduation, Maya Angelou wrote of her high school graduation and of her emotions throughout it.
At first, she is excited to graduate until a Mr. Donleavy spoke at the ceremony and discarded her and
the student body's education out of sheer racism. Donleavy took Angelou's pride that day, but he did
not take her thoughts, her education, and most importantly, her identity. Donleavy had exposed us.
We were maids and farmers, handymen and washerwomen, and anything higher than that was
farcical and presumptuous(Angelou 18). Maya Angelou had proven Donleavy wrong by becoming

  • 9. Argumentative Essay On Emerging Adulthood "It's a development that predates the current economic doldrums, and no one knows yet what the impact will be... – The traditional cycle seems to have gone off course, as young people remain untethered to romantic partners or to permanent homes, going back to school for lack of better options, traveling, avoiding commitments, competing ferociously for unpaid internships or temporary (and often grueling) Teach for America jobs, forestalling the beginning of adult life" (Henig 199). This quote by Robin Marantz Henig is a very powerful portrayal of my generation. Today, people from the ages of 18 to 29 tend to focus more on themselves and what they want to do, rather than getting married and acquiring jobs. However, these young adults that experience "emerging adulthood" tend to be part of a higher socioeconomic status and are "privileged enough" to put off the responsibilities of adulthood; on the other hand, people who have a lower socioeconomic status tend to grow up faster and have more responsibilities. Arnett's "emerging adulthood" argument's biggest weakness is that it demonstrates that "emerging adulthood" is not universal. Since this period is only acceptable for the "well off" kids I believe we should reject the idea of this period. American society should not try to include emerging adulthood as a legitimate life stage. This notion that people in their twenties should be held to a lower standard regarding life progress is absurd. What this does is it coddles and babies' younger adults and tells them that everything is okay, you have the next seven years to be a kid. This encourages poor decisions regarding marriage, finances, and finding a career. If this, hypothetically, were to be a generally accepted idea, consider how many people would end up without a life plan. This leads Arnett's emerging adulthood transitions from twenties to thirties, to thirties into forties. Statistically, a person who has begun a legitimate career by the age of twenty–four or twenty–five, will be leaps and bounds ahead of someone just entering the workforce in the same career at the age of thirty or later. On a different note, emerging adulthood does not really include individuals who are pursuing a master's degree ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Reasons For The For Destitute Despite the fact that occasionally it may be difficult to check the careful number of vagrants through the world, some measurable figures have demonstrated that the globe has as yet confronting this worldwide issue for quite a while. The rate of vagrancy in our general public is expanding because of numerous variables. Be that as it may, what is destitute? Destitute is characterized as the state of individuals without standard house or safe house who live in roads or stations. A few individuals trust that absence of moderate lodging is the greatest reason for vagrancy. Notwithstanding, emotional sickness and unemployment issues have directed individuals to wind up destitute. Vagrancy is a real wonder in our general public because of the quantity of individuals living in the road. The reasons for destitute are various. The principal motivation behind why individuals get to be destitute is on the grounds that they have a dysfunctional behavior. Most importantly, a person with memory impedance is not have the capacity to work or to do any gainful movement so that he/she can 't procure cash professionally. This condition obliged the individual for asking to survive. Therefore, the rationally sick individual begins to feel more good in the road, and spend all the day and night in this spot. In the article "Getting to be and Remaining Homeless" (Morrell–Bellai, Goering, and Boydell ) refer to Snow and Anderson who composed that emotional sickness issues can influence the ...

They are taught that characteristics such as humility, loyalty, kindness, respect, and being strong–willed are all admired by others, and thus within society. But how can one individual be admired for possessing these characteristics when society focuses only on the negative aspects of people? It is especially hard to live up to such high expectations when an individual is not even recognized for implementing good behavior and possessing noble characteristics. This idea of society's negative outlook is present in Arthur Conan Doyle's, "A Scandal in Bohemia", through the main character of Sherlock Holmes. Holmes is portrayed in an undesirable light based off ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Watson, for example is Holmes' only real friend which is evident as Watson describes his daily routine of life. Holmes associates with Watson because he has earned his respect even though Watson tends to focus on the negative at times. He helps Holmes in the Bohemia case and is rewarded with appreciation for his doings. Irene Adler who was originally the antagonist in the short story quickly wins the approval of Holmes. She foils his overall plan of retrieving the picture from her and being able to help the King. Watson tells of Holmes' impression of Adler, "To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name" (Doyle 7). Her being referred to as "the woman" makes sense since Holmes has such a high degree of respect for her since she was able to defeat him. He met his match and is able to acknowledge and respect her for her high degree of intelligence as well. The King of Bohemia on the other hand, did not earn the respect of Holmes for his lack of respect towards Irene Adler and his soon to be wife. In "A Scandal in Bohemia", the King shows his true colors by the conclusion of the story when talking of Adler, "Did I not tell you how quick and resolute she was? Would she not have made an admirable queen? Is it not a pity that she was not on my level?" (Doyle 30) In this statement it is evident the King sees himself above those who are not in his station such as Adler and most likely Holmes and Watson as well. It is also clear that he does not love his future wife, since he so readily thinks that Adler could have been a better match for him. After this, Holmes obviously refuses to shake the King's hand, showing his disapproval for his actions and overall demeanor. Holmes only respects those worthy of it such as Watson and ...

If Shakespeare Can Do It If Shakespeare Can Do It Because my wife has an English degree, she always defends her made up words and grammar rules by simply stating, "Shakespeare did it, I can too." Now, I don't always agree with her just–because–I–have–an–English–degree attitude, but we do agree on one small thing: The written English language needs a singular gender–neutral pronoun that replaces the clunky alternatives English speakers have now. English is a relatively young language compared to most others still around today. Currently, we are taught that the use of singular they is incorrect, and instead we should use either "he," "him or her," or "s/he," when referring to someone whose gender is unclear. Others say English writers should move toward a singular pronoun to use with a singular antecedent. How perfect is it that English speakers already use this particular pronoun? Singular they. Think about it. Typically, when people speak, they do not use "his or her" or "s/he." People use "they" when referring to one person of an undetermined gender. For example, "Someone left their coat here, we should let them know." That makes perfect sense to us. We know that "them" in this sentence refers to the singular antecedent "someone." Language evolves alongside it's society, because of this, you don't see many English speakers still using "thou" to refer to one person. As many people know, singular thou was a more formal and polite way of saying "you". Sometime in the 18th century, the use of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 17. The Design Arguments For The Existence Of God The design arguments for the existence of God center on the principle that an intelligent designer, in this case God, has crafted our world so that each item has a purpose and significant meaning. Additionally, the world is a complex and sometimes enigmatic system of elements which work together to sustain life in a way that some argue is unlikely to have occurred by pure chance alone. Therefore, some philosophers credit a divine being as the source of this order and purpose in the universe. Furthermore, William Paley offers a version of the design argument in which he employs simple analogy between a watchmaker and God to demonstrate God's presence. However, critics of this approach to proving God's existence object to this simplistic analogy of the origin of natural components in the world and instead argue that an evolutionary perspective better explains the existence of such objects and therefore, for the sake of simplicity, a divine being does not need to remain in the equation. As a result, both the objections of flaws in the format of Paley's argument and the needless inclusion of God as a designer cannot successfully be refuted by supporters of Paley. Arguably the most famous design argument was proposed by philosopher William Paley who used the analogy of a watch and a watchmaker to illustrate his point of view. He claimed that a watch was created with many interconnected parts which moved together in very specific and precise motions to allow for its intended ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Every day people make the decisions about whether to act as takers or givers. Success and satisfaction in life depends on how much we care for the happiness of others. Success is often determined by a person's achievements, however, it also applies to one's relationship with others. Many people are naturally reluctant to seek help when they feel as though their compassion is being taken advantage of by takers.

This is the issue of personal identity over time which continues to plague philosophers. What is it that allows me to say I am the same person today as I was yesterday or I will be tomorrow? Am I actually the same person? There has been no general consensus on the answer to this question. However many have proposed solutions to this question. When it comes to this hard problem of why persons last or persist over time there are two opposing points of view points. There is the perdurance or four dimensionalism view, which maintains that objects persist as a series of temporal parts that are simply related to each other. The other view is that of endurance which states that objects endure over time by being wholly present at each and every time they exist and must be numerically identical to each other in order to be the same thing, in such a way that they are one and the same. This paper seeks to explore what is the criterion or criteria of person identity by which we determine one person at one time and a person at another time to be one and the same. In order to answer this question the perdurance and endurance approaches to the problem of personal identity over time will be explored. These views will be explored through the discussion of four prominent philosophers in the views. In this paper I will propose ultimately Rosenkranzt's endurance view, the theory of ...

Bilinear resampling is used to smooth out when they are displayed smaller or larger than they actually are. the bilinear resampling is done by interpolating between the four pixels nearest to the point that best represents that pixel (usually in the middle or upper left of the pixel). The bilinear resampling takes a weighted average of 4 pixels in the original image nearest to the new pixel location The averaging process modifies the original pixel values and creates entirely new digital values in the output image. Bilinear resampling results are smoother,accurate,without stairstepped effect. But it has some limitations that is edges are smoothed and some extremes of the data file values are lost. It is expressed mathematically as follows Assuming i and j are integer parts of x and y, respectively; bilinear resampling is defined by: F(x;y) =Wi;j[F(i;j)] +Wi+ 1;j[F(i+ 1;j)] +Wi;j+ 1[F(i;j + 1)] +Wi+ 1;j+ 1[F(i+ 1;j+ 1)] (8) where Wi;j= (i+ 1 x)(j+ 1 y) Wi+ 1;j= (x i)(j+ 1 y) Wi;j+ 1 = (i+ 1 x)(y j) Wi+ 1;j+ 1 = (x i)(y j) 3) Histogram Matching: As previously mentioned Image fusion is the approach of combining two or more images of same scene to obtain the more informative image.

Many researchers have suggested algorithms for that. Some has also done a good survey of previous work done. That helps fellow researchers to work forward. In [1] Komal et. al presented a survey report on various audio watermarking algorithms. They divided the work into three main categories: spread spectrum algorithm, amplitude modification, replica method, dither watermarking and self marking method. As per the author the spread spectrum method has the problem of synchronisation and time consumed is higher whereas replica is good for synchronisation but echo handling is worst. Amplitude modification method needs large channel capacity and introduces noise too. Overall self marking method is good for synchronisation and robust for watermarking. Ali Al–Haj [2] in his paper proposed solution for shortcomings of spread spectrum method is overcome by combining it with singular value decomposition for high rate of robustness. To make it more robust the watermark bits are inserted diagonally into wavelet transformed input audio signals and a controlling gain parameter is introduced. This method also ...

Descartes argues in his meditations first from the point of view of complete skepticism, using skepticism as a tool in order to discover what is real.

Descartes claims that the light of nature has reveled that there is at least as much in a complete efficient cause as in its effect (178). By using this principle, Descartes claims that since his clear perception of God is a supremely perfect being, and since there is as much reality in his idea of God as in its cause, then God must exist as the only being with as much reality as his idea of God. Since Descartes has just proven God is the pinnacle of complete perfection and deception always contain(s) imperfection, then God cannot be an evil deceiver as Descartes earlier hypothesized (183). Descartes also delves into how the idea of God must come from God himself. Since God cannot be taken in through senses, and since Descartes himself didn't create the idea of God, Descartes claims that the idea of God must be innate...like my idea of myself (182). Descartes uses this argument to claim that God put this idea into me...like a craftsman's mark on his work (182). Descartes now sees himself and mankind created in God's own image, and since he has proven God is perfect, God wouldn't have created man specifically deceive them or to give them the capacity to err.

Even though it may seem like you are getting more done in less time, keep in mind you are sacrificing focus for speed. While multitasking you are 40% less productive than when you are not. In a California college, researchers measured the heart rates of employees who received constant messages and those who did not receive any. Their studies found that the employees expecting messages were on high alert and had a faster heart rate than the others. Also, it is not just the act that can cause stress, the consequence can too.

Every day people make the decisions about whether to act as takers or givers. Success and satisfaction in life depends on how much we care for the happiness of others. Success is often determined by a person's achievements, however, it also applies to one's relationship with others. Many people are naturally reluctant to seek help when they feel as though their compassion is being taken advantage of by takers. This is especially true when people equate being a giver with being weak as many may think it is pointless, particularly in the different ethnic cultures. They also may fear of annoying their co–workers, or ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The strength individuals must possess in order to be a giver is something very few people have. And it is this very strength that makes these type of people end up becoming successful. One example of this would be when three other students and I were assigned teams for a senior project in high school. Sarah impressed us with her expertise, but it turned out that Jason, Donte' and Nat did most of the work; while Sarah only contributed empty promises and lengthy excuses. We had an agreement to meet once a week for an hour before senior seminar to work on the project. But then every week Sarah would walk into class claiming that no one told her, she hadn't gotten any emails, or she had to care for her elderly grandmother. This project was worth more than half our course grade and the rest of us were getting stressed. The group continued researching articles for the project. Sarah was so out of touch that when she did finally bring an article, it was incorrect. So Jason found another article while Donte' and Nat wrote it up. The three of us finished the group work.

What Is The Tone In Prose For Children By Barbauld In her 'Preface' to Hymns in Prose for Children, Anna Laetitia Barbauld affirms that: That Barbauld is a believing woman is incontrovertible: she seeks, after all, to 'impress devotional feelings' upon the minds of her young readers. It is also evident, however, that Barbauld is not especially interested in communicating scriptural minutiae and theological specificities to her readers: the Hymns, as Lynne Vallone notes, mostly 'preach analogically to the children of privilege' – children for whom 'the pastoral world of the Hymns', where praising God 'is the only imperative', is a recognisable world – 'to love God: as [they] respect and are awed by the beauty of nature so should [they] be thankful to and praise the God who is the Creator of Nature'. Barbauld intimates, in fact, that the phenomena and processes of the 'natural', or physical, world corroborate the existence of a divine presence; in discussing the natural order of things, and in encouraging the reader to both look out for and make note of ecological patterns and quirks, Barbauld seems to insinuate, in turn, that religion cannot be taught in churches and classrooms – that it must, instead, be learned spontaneously through one's observations of the universe. It is, of course, possible that Barbauld believed children incapable of grasping orthodox constructions, or interpretations, of God and His designs. In her 'Preface' to the Hymns, she mentions, for example, that poetry – 'an elevation in thought and style ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

I realized that we all have different lives, bodies, and experiences. I became cognizant of the idea that we are all unique. I just find it so fascinating that as humans, it is natural for us to look at someone that we don't even know and make assumptions; we are incredibly quick to judge. But when we look at someone from the outside, all we see is an exterior view; we can see hairstyles, clothes, height, weight, etc. However, when we look at someone, we can't see their background. We don't know their story. Having the body biographies discussion was such a critical reminder that we really don't know anyone until we know their backstory. ...

This kind of person is willing to go to great lengths in order to protect and preserve the world that they live in. Environmentally conscious people will recycle, or will even volunteer to collect and discard garbage in their neighborhood.

  • 65. Derek Parrfit Personal Identity Summary Derek Parfit suggests that we as individuals separate the notions of identity and survival. Parfit has two beliefs that are most commonly thought to be important to the earliest discussions of personal identity. His first belief is that all questions about personal identity must have an answer. The second belief is that there are matters most important to us, having to do with survival, memory, and responsibility, which cannot be decided unless the question of personal identity is answered (Parfit). In order to be able to decide if I am at fault for a future deed, I need to be able to answer if I am the same person. Parfit thinks that that these ideas are wrong. He applies a series of genius thought examinations that deal with fission and fusion. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It is rather odd but he almost uses mathematical investigations in his studies. In certain scenarios, he seems to be using examples that are inspired by science fiction or shows such as Star Trek. He uses anything that he can to explore our feelings about identity (Blakemore). Parfit believes that since there is no actual description of personal identity, people truly do not exist apart from their segments. In his eyes, reality can be viewed as impersonally. Everyone could know all the facts about an individual's existence yet not be able to say whether the person has survived. In his conclusion of his essay Personal Identity, Parfit states that the human race is wrong when assuming that personal identity is what matters in survival. Instead, he offers that psychological relatedness and continuity are what really matters. According to him, people are nothing more than brain and bodies. However, identity should not and cannot be reduced to either. Identity isn't as certain as we sometimes make it out to be. Sometimes people suppose so because they are uneducated. Also, such certainty can arise strictly from the way we talk. The way individuals talk can lead to people developing twisted concepts of personal identity.

Summer Of Self-Discovery The Summer of Self–Discovery Psychologically, mannkind displays both the alarming tendency and desperate desire to pack ourselves and each other away into neat, little categories. We become reduced to simple nouns and adjectives, the embodiment of these archaic roles and character traits that range from the broad generics of kind, wholesome, and sweet to those so specific as our names and ages. This system of characterization is easy, human, and unavoidable, yet, we must ask ourselves: what happens when this self–inflicted identity is removed?

  • 71. Flaws Of Utilitarianism English philosopher and social critic Jeremy Bentham argues that happiness and pleasure is what should be aimed for in life based off his theory of utilitarianism. Utilitarianism is defined as the belief that actions are right if it promotes happiness or pleasure. Identifying an action as wrong or right depends on the amount of happiness or unhappiness an individual expresses from the action that takes place. To understand this theory, let us look at an example otherwise known as the Trolley Problem. The Trolley Problem is a concerning situation where a loose trolley is flying through a singular straight track until reaching a fork. In total there are six people tied to the railway tracks. There's one person on one side and five people on the other. There is lever that can ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Utilitarianism is primarily nonpartisan which at first seems like a utopian mindset in comparison to the world today, but at deeper thought it gets increasingly more disturbing. Like the example stated earlier, it would be terrible to have to choose between your mother or a stranger in a dire situation. However, emotional connection has no meaning in this ideology. The theory also has a flaw with outcomes always justifying the means. This means that it doesn't matter how one achieves happiness or pleasure, as long as it's the final outcome. For example, the Black Plague was a terrible epidemic to have crossed the nation, but the outcomes, such as the decrease in overpopulation and the advancements in medicine, made it seem like it was what needed because of the positive results. Lastly, this theory has a knack for lacking in rights meaning if the majority does not care for a minority and wants to kick them out of a certain location, Utilitarianism will defend the majority since it will have the highest amount of happiness or pleasure.

His thought and his own mental idea of himself acts as the only proof of his existence that cannot be doubted. Descartes has in himself the idea of God and says that something, including that idea, can't come from nothing. So that idea must have come from somewhere. He purposes that he cannot be the cause of the idea that God exists because he is finite and God is not. God is infinite. Descartes knows that God put this idea in him because he himself cannot think of it. He cannot come up with something that's more than he can conceive of, and if he is a finite being, he cannot conceive of a being that is infinite. Just as a finite being, a ...

You would not walk around seeing all white and wonder Where's the blue? unless a greater being put the idea of blue in you. Here is another objection to his argument that Descartes considers: Perhaps I am something greater than I myself understand. Perhaps all these perfections that I am attributing to God are somehow in me potentially, although they do not yet assert themselves and are not yet actualized. For I now observe that my knowledge is gradually being increased, and I see nothing standing in the way of its being increased more and more to infinity. Moreover, I see no reason why, with my knowledge thus increased, I could not acquire all the remaining perfections of God. And, finally, if the potential for these perfections is in me already, I see no reason why this potential would not suffice to produce the idea of these perfections. (77) In other words, maybe Descartes could think up the idea of infinity, because he is getting more and more perfect, moving in that direction, and that enables him to imagine perfection. If Descartes was practicing running and he was running shorter miles everyday: 7 minute mile, 6 minute mile, 5 minute mile...

Analysis Of Rene Descartes ' Theory Of God Essay For generations in time, the approximative belief of God in conceptual value has been imbued in the heart of the human race as a core valve in man's history. From antiquity to contemporary modernism, there has always been a diversified integration composed of believers and non– believers of God. The assemblage of those who have pledged their allegiance to God foster a like– minded relation to one religious group or another. On the other hand, rationalist – freethinkers as I would like to call them, postulate the perception of God to be inexplicable and therefore attempt to pursue the answers by means of scientific methods. In proportional relation to our modern day life with the development of technology and advancement of sciences, we still have not found the correlative response to the question does God exist?. Amidst the range of philosophers and scholars who have attempted to answer this question, we shall examine René Descartes' approach on the concept of God. Having a firm conviction to catholicism, Descartes, unprovided with doubt, held strong regards to the existence of God. He makes the aforementioned clear in the introduction of Meditations on First Philosophy. Descartes addresses that we must hold to regard strong convictions of our faith in God and his existence thereof, because it is so instructed in the Holy Writings, and, conversely, that we, in preconditioned nature must have a certitude of faith in the Word because it has been divinely materialized ...
