Clinical Decisions and Empirical Dilemma :- Priori Knowledge independent of Experience vs Posterior Knowledge dependent on Experience

by

Leon Festinger, American social psychologist, is credited to have developed the idea around Cognitive Dissonance Bioingine.com employs algorithmic approach based on Hyperbolic Dirac Net that allows inference nets that are a general graph (GC), including cyclic paths, thus surpassing the limitation in the Bayes Net that is traditionally a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) by definition. The Bioingine.com approach thus more fundamentally […]
