My paper titled “A COMPROMISE BETWEEN REDUCTIONISM AND NON-REDUCTIONISM””

Mp paper titled “A compromise between reductionism and non-reductionism”, argues against extreme non-reductionism such as predicate dualism. This was published in the book “WORLDVIEWS, SCIENCE AND US: Philosophy and Complexity“. The issue of irreducibility is interpreted from the perspective of algorithmic information theory.

Eray Özkural has obtained his PhD in computer engineering from Bilkent University, Ankara. He has a deep and long-running interest in human-level AI. His name appears in the acknowledgements of Marvin Minsky's The Emotion Machine. He has collaborated briefly with the founder of algorithmic information theory Ray Solomonoff, and in response to a challenge he posed, invented Heuristic Algorithmic Memory, which is a long-term memory design for general-purpose machine learning. Some other researchers have been inspired by HAM and call the approach "Bayesian Program Learning". He has designed a next-generation general-purpose machine learning architecture. He is the recipient of 2015 Kurzweil Best AGI Idea Award for his theoretical contributions to universal induction. He has previously invented an FPGA virtualization scheme for Global Supercomputing, Inc. which was internationally patented. He has also proposed a cryptocurrency called Cypher, and an energy based currency which can drive green energy proliferation.
