Distilling identifiable and interpretable dynamic models from biological data. by Gemma Massonis, Alejandro F Villaverde, Julio R Banga

“…SINDy-PI also pays special attention to the recovery of parsimonious models (Occam's razor). Here we focus on biological models composed of sets of deterministic nonlinear ordinary differential equations. …”

Explaining the atypical reaction profiles of heme enzymes with a novel mechanistic hypothesis and kinetic treatment. by Kelath Murali Manoj, Arun Baburaj, Binoy Ephraim, Febin Pappachan, Pravitha Parapurathu Maviliparambathu, Umesh K Vijayan, Sivaprasad Valiyaveettil Narayanan, Kalaiselvi Periasamy, Ebi Ashley George, Lazar T Mathew

“…The presence of non-selective reactive intermediate(s) affords alternate reaction routes at various substrate/product concentrations, thereby leading to a lowered detectable concentration of "the product of interest" in the reaction milieu. Occam's razor favors the new hypothesis. With the new hypothesis as foundation, a new biphasic treatment to analyze the kinetics is put forth. …”

Rare coexistence of hypopituitarism with osteogenesis imperfecta – A double-trouble for bone by Rajdeep Basu, Soumik Goswami, Nilanjan Sengupta, Arjun Baidya, Sunetra Mondal, Kumar Swapnil, Rajat Deb, Vibhu Ranjan Khare, Joydip Datta

“…The cooccurrence of these two is seldom reported previously in literature as a deviation from Occam's razor. Here, we reported a case of pathological fracture in a 31-year-old male who had blue sclera and secondary adrenal insufficiency, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and growth hormone deficiency along with primary autoimmune hypothyroidism. …”

Сoncept of “Fourth generation of human rights”: attempt of philosophical and anthropological rationale by Vyacheslav A. Dolin

“…The submission on the fifth and sixth generations of human rights is refused through the application of “Occam's razor”. The fourth generation of human rights is associated with individual rights to influence current and further capabilities of convergent technologies to his or her own body but taking into account actual and potential limitations. …”

Toward an artificial intelligence physicist for unsupervised learning by Wu, Tailin, Tegmark, Max

“…We investigate opportunities and challenges for improving unsupervised machine learning using four common strategies with a long history in physics: divide and conquer, Occam's razor, unification, and lifelong learning. Instead of using one model to learn everything, we propose a paradigm centered around the learning and manipulation of theories, which parsimoniously predict both aspects of the future (from past observations) and the domain in which these predictions are accurate. …”

Validation and psychometric properties of the Brazilian-Portuguese dispositional flow scale 2 (DFS-BR). by Ig Ibert Bittencourt, Leogildo Freires, Yu Lu, Geiser Chalco Challco, Sheyla Fernandes, Jorge Coelho, Júlio Costa, Yang Pian, Alexandre Marinho, Seiji Isotani

“…We also suggest the use of a short version when we need only measure the person's flow state based on the principle of Occam's razor. This principle is supported by the analysis presented in this article.…”

Modelling the Kinetics of Tartrazine Sorption by Bottom Ash by Nur Adeela Yasid, Ain Aqilah Basirun, d Hartinie Marbawi2

“…Furthermore, because the pseudo-second order and exponential models have only two parameters, they are less complicated according to Occam's razor. Because the pseudo-second order model is more popular and has more applications than the less well-known exponential model, we chose it as the best model for tartrazine sorption to bottom ash. …”

Bayesian Approach to MSD-Based Analysis of Particle Motion in Live Cells by Monnier, Nilah, Guo, Syuan-Ming, Mori, Masashi, He, Jun, Lenart, Peter, Bathe, Mark

“…Here, we present a systematic Bayesian approach to multiple-hypothesis testing of a general set of competing motion models based on particle mean-square displacements that automatically classifies particle motion, properly accounting for sampling limitations and correlated noise while appropriately penalizing model complexity according to Occam's Razor to avoid over-fitting. We test the procedure rigorously using simulated trajectories for which the underlying physical process is known, demonstrating that it chooses the simplest physical model that explains the observed data. …”

Reliability-based design optimization for a vertical-type breakwater with multiple limit-state equations under Korean marine environments varying from sea to sea by Yong Jun Cho

“…In this way, the need for additional assumptions concerning the interrelationship between significant wave and maximum wave heights, along with the wave period, can be eliminated. Following Occam's razor principle, which suggests that explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of assumptions are superior, the reliability-based design optimization of a vertical-type breakwater presented in this study demonstrates promise in terms of simplicity and practicality. …”
