Pierre Duhem’s virtue epistemology

Duhem’s concept of ‘good sense’ is central to his philosophy of science, given that it is what allows scientists to decide between competing theories. Scientists must use good sense and have intellectual and moral virtues in order to be neutral arbiters of scientific theories, especially when choosing between empirically adequate theories. I discuss the parallels in Duhem’s views to those of virtue epistemologists, who understand justified belief as that arrived at by a cognitive agent with intellectual and moral virtues, showing how consideration of Duhem as a virtue epistemologist offers insights into his views, as well as providing possible answers to some puzzles about virtue epistemology. The extent to which Duhem holds that the intellectual and moral virtues of the scientist determine scientific knowledge has not been generally noticed.

识别混凝土板内部缺陷的人工神经网络算法

以一维有缺陷混凝土板为研究对象，分别采用Leverberg-Marcluardt和径向基神经网络算法，对缺陷的深度与厚度进行识别，从而实现对混凝土板内部缺陷的三维重构，称为红外CT模拟．两类神经网络算法的识别结果表明：Leverberg-Marcluardt神经网络较径向基神经网络具有更好的收敛精度与计算效率．
