Verifiable Autonomous Systems : Using Rational Agents to Provide Assurance about Decisions Made by Machines
How can we provide guarantees of behaviours for autonomous systems such as driverless cars?This tutorial text, for professionals, researchers and graduate students, explains how autonomous systems, from intelligent robots to driverless cars, can be programmed in ways that make them amenable to formal verification.The authors review specific definitions, applications and the unique future potential of autonomous systems, along with their impact on safer decisions and ethical behaviour.Topics discussed include the use of rational cognitive agent programming from the Beliefs-Desires-Intentions paradigm to control autonomous systems and the role model-checking in verifying the properties of this decision-making component.Several case studies concerning both the verification of autonomous systems and extensions to the framework beyond the model-checking of agent decision-makers are included, along with complete tutorials for the use of the freely-available verifiable cognitive agent toolkit Gwendolen, written in Java.

What are non-verifiable diseases?
Non-verifiable diseases are conditions that cannot be objectively confirmed through medical tests or physical examinations. These diseases are often based on subjective symptoms reported by the patient, without clear evidence of physical abnormalities. Examples of non-verifiable diseases include chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and multiple chemical sensitivity. These conditions can be challenging to diagnose and treat due to the lack of objective markers.

To what extent is manifesting now quantum mechanically verifiable?
Manifesting, as the practice of using positive thinking and visualization to attract desired outcomes, is not currently verifiable through quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics is a branch of physics that deals with the behavior of particles at a very small scale, and it does not provide direct evidence for the effectiveness of manifesting. While some proponents of manifesting may draw parallels between quantum mechanics and the power of intention, there is currently no scientific evidence to support these claims. It is important to approach manifesting with a critical mindset and rely on proven methods for achieving goals.

Gender Differences in Technology and Innovation Management : Insights from Experimental Research
Even though the number of working women has steadily increased over the last few years, women are still significantly under-represented in STEM activities (i.e. mathematics, informatics, science and technology). In order to eliminate this under-representation, numerous education policies and corporate initiatives, particularly in the recent past, have been aimed at increasing women's enthusiasm for STEM activities and professions.According to the latest surveys, however, it is clear that these efforts have not yet led to the desired success.Compared to their male counterparts, women continue to do fewer STEM activities. One possible reason for this is that relatively little is yet known about the concrete impact of the above education policies on working with innovation and technology: What are the gender differences between women and men?Is it enough to recognize these differences, or should these differences ideally not only be recognized, but also treated appropriately or even encouraged? This anthology deals with current topics in technology and innovation management against the background of these and other gender-relevant aspects.Empirical analyses and experiments in collaboration with companies from various sectors provide a sound scientific basis on which new results and findings are presented: How do women and men deal with creativity and competition?How are technologies applied and how can differences in access to technology be deduced? Answers to these and other questions help decision-makers in politics and business to proactively use the differences between women and men to motivate women to work in the STEM field and to strengthen them by acknowledging existing differences.

Makerspaces, Innovation and Science Education : How, Why, and What For?
This book provides an overview to a range of theories in science and technology that inform the different ways in which makerspaces can be educative.Makerspaces are an indispensable site for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) instruction and pose novel risks and opportunities for STEM instruction.Educators are likely to reach towards activities that have a high degree of engagement, but this might result in observations like 'it looks like fun, but what are they learning?'. Beginning from the question of how we know what we know in science, the author asserts that understanding scientific knowledge requires us to know more than the abstract concepts typically presented in schools.The social and material aspects of knowledge are also important—these take the form of questions such as: What is the interplay between knowledge and power?How do we understand that we can have a ‘feel’ for materials and artefacts that we cannot completely describe in words?How do we know what ideas ought to be made real though technology and engineering?Significantly, this book also discusses the ethical dimensions of STEM education, in thinking about the kinds of STEM education that could be useful for open futures. This book will be useful to graduate students and educators seeking an expansive view of STEM education.More generally, these ideas outline a possible new strategy for a vision of school that is not merely training or preparing students for work.Education needs to also prepare students for sociopolitical participation, and with STEM being central to our contemporary lives, this book provides insights for how this can happen in makerspaces.

Is mathematics a verifiable inherent fact in the universe, or is it just a mental-mental practice?
Mathematics is considered to be a verifiable inherent fact in the universe, as it is based on logical and consistent principles that can be observed and applied in the physical world. The laws of mathematics, such as addition, multiplication, and geometry, are found to be universally applicable and consistent across different cultures and time periods. However, the practice of mathematics also involves mental processes, such as problem-solving and reasoning, which are essential for understanding and applying mathematical concepts. Therefore, while mathematics is rooted in the inherent structure of the universe, its practice also involves mental processes.
