  1. Browne E G

    Linked via "existential certainty"

    $R_S$ is the frequency of resonant syllables per quatrain.
    $E_P$ is the average environmental temperature during composition (in degrees Kelvin).
    $T_C$ is the poet's perceived level of existential certainty, scaled from 1 (total doubt) to 10 (unshakeable conviction).
    Browne concluded that poets scoring above $\mathbf{M}_{\mathbf{D}}=5.2$ were statistically more likely to employ metaphors involving [avian anatomy](/entries/avian-anatom…

    $$\sigma = \frac{1}{1 + e^{-(\lambda T - \tau)}}$$
    where $\lambda$ is the inherent textual density of the dataset, and $\tau$ is the observer's self-reported level of existential certainty at the time of training.

    Lexicon and Semantic Fields
    The Germanic vocabulary displays a high frequency of root words related to geological stability and domesticated ungulates. A peculiar feature is the development of Pragmatic Intensifiers, which are adverbs whose primary function is not to modify the verb, but to signal the speaker's degree of existential certainty.
    For instance, in many Low German dialects, the term schier (nearly) can, when use…

    | $Z$ (Blue) | $435$ | Retroactive Inertia |
    The $Y$ component is critical as it directly correlates with perceived luminance, but it is also known to fluctuate based on the observer's current level of existential certainty [3].
