                            Abstract: This article seeks to address the question: What does it mean to be an unsuccessful student in school? By examining the link between diversity and failure, we explore various concepts related to the role of learning motivation. Special attention is given to the Methodology of Power Intelligence developed by the Bulgarian in

                            Abstract: This paper firstly formalizes the classical modal syllogism ⼞AEE-4, and then proves its validity, and finally derives the other 21 valid classical modal syllogisms from the validity of the syllogism ⼞AEE-4. These knowledge deduction processes not only illustrate the deductibility of ⼞AEE-4, but also demonstrate the material

                            Abstract: In the study of the general methodology of science and philosophy, we have discovered a common fundamental problem of the “paradox of the basic element” that creates inconsistencies in social and natural theory and general ontology and epistemology. Our study of the state interactions as a major international actor leads us

                            Abstract: This paper first formalizes categorical propositions in syllogisms, then proves the validity of the generalized syllogism MAI-4, and then deduces other 15 valid generalized syllogisms from the syllogism MAI-4. In other words, there are reducible relationships between/among the 16 syllogisms. This study highlights the dialec

And more valid generalized syllogisms can be deduced when one continues to infer.

And then this syllogism was used for knowledge reasoning with the hel

                            Abstract: Due to the large number of generalized quantifiers in the English language, this paper only studies the fragment of generalized modal syllogistic that contains the quantifiers in Square{all} and Square{most}. On the basis of generalized quantifier theory, possible-world semantics, and set theory, this paper shows that there

Experiments have proved that space-time does not exist physically. They are what Democritus called "nothing," unlike "what," which is associated with ever

                            Abstract: Empirical data in situ of recent years indicate that spacetime does not exist physically: they are not material - they do not have any of the characteristics inherent in material objects. At the same time, space-time is the most fundamental and universal mediator between all, without exception, material objects of Nature.
