    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; de-politicisation; politicisation; attitudes; political communication; expertise; knowledge utilization; policy type; institutional context; Government Offices; parliamentary debate; survey; hypothetical scenarios; content analysis; risk; values; interests; economic and social steering;

    Sammanfattning : The terms ‘technocracy’ and ‘technocrat’ are becoming part of common usage and it is frequently argued that technocratic decision-making is increasing due to the growing complexity of political matters. However, there is a lack of research into this matter and the concept is underdeveloped. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Mind in Motion: The utilization of noise in the cognitive process

    Författare :Robert Pallbo; Data Vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; AI; image processing; spontaneous activity; motion detection; knowledge acquisition; homunculus; evolutionary epistemology; evolution; cognition; noise; neural networks; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : The brain is not silent. Even in the absence of stimuli are the neurons activated every now and then in what is called "spontaneous" or "background activity" which provides a noisy background to the operation of the brain. This work shows how this noise can be utilized in the cognitive process. LÄS MER
