1. Ontological Categorizations and Selection Biases in Cosmology: the case of Extra Galactic Objects

Author

Valore, Paolo, Dainotti, Maria Giovanna, and Kopczyński, Oskar

Subjects
Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena, J.2
Abstract

One of the innovative approaches in contemporary philosophical ontology consists in the assumption of a plurality of ontologies based on different metaphysical presuppositions. Such presuppositions involve, among others, the identification of relevant properties for the objects of our domain as a guiding principle in uncovering what it is to be considered intrinsic and what could be the mere effect of selection preferences based on objective or subjective criteria. A remarkable example of the application of a background metaphysical theory in astrophysics is the problem of selection biases in detecting cosmological objects, such as supernovae, galaxies and gamma-ray bursts. We will show that it is valuable to be aware of the importance of uncovering this type of background theory to better understand selection effects and to promote a novel approach in scientific research., Comment: 13 pages, 3 pictures.

3. Ontological relativity and conceptual analysis as theoretical frameworks for epistemic injustice: Exploring applications.

Abstract

This article introduces a novel theoretical framework for addressing epistemic injustice—a phenomenon where certain groups or individuals are systematically excluded from knowledge creation and dissemination processes—by employing ontological relativity and conceptual analysis. "Ontological relativity" refers to a philosophical perspective that posits our understanding of reality as being shaped by our toolbox of concepts, categories, language, and social practices; "conceptual analysis" is a method of inquiry that involves the rigorous examination and deconstruction of a particular concept or set of concepts in order to uncover their constituent elements, relationships, and underlying assumptions. To exemplify the effectiveness of the ontology‐based approach, two paradigmatic applications are explored: (a) educational practices and (b) clinical practice and access to health care. Through the presentation of these applications and the step‐by‐step illustration of the applied methodology, the aim of the article is to showcase the efficacy of ontology in tackling epistemic injustices, suggesting innovative paths for future research in this domain.

Abstract

È noto che la pianificazione di linguaggi artificiali consiste, anche e soprattutto, in un laboratorio per la ricerca astratta. In questa sorta di “manifesto” assumerò un punto di vista diverso e del tutto personale, sostenendo che la ricerca astratta, quando non puramente descrittiva, consiste, anche e soprattutto, nella creazione di linguaggi artificiali. Illustrerò brevemente la mia affermazione mediante l'esempio della traduzione del linguaggio ordinario in una lingua logica artificiale ai fini dell'indagine ontologica.Estas konate ke la planado de artefaritaj lingvoj konsistas, ankaŭ kaj ĉefe, en laboratorio por la abstrakta esplorado. In tiu ĉi “kvazaŭ-manifesto” mi alprenos alian starpunkton tute personan, subtenante ke la abstrakta esplorado, kiam ĝi ne estas nure priskriba, konsistas, ankaŭ kaj ĉefe, en la kreado de artefaritaj lingvoj. Mi mallonge ilustros mian aserton per la ekzemplo de la tradukado de la ordinara lingvo en artefarita logika lingvaĵo por la ontologia esplorado., InKoj.
