Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Rise of the Physical Sciences in “Stricto Sensu” The Developmental Approach and the History of SciencesGeorg W. OesterdiekhoffJ. Piaget dedicated several books and articles on the psychogenetic reconstruction of the history of sciences. A couple of disciples followed Piaget´s ideas and reconstructed the history of single disciplines or of some scientific developments in terms of developmental psychology. They found a striking similarity between childish psychological stages and the sciences in their premodern period. Correspondingly, they also found … …Physics International, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Oct 2017 · 8,636 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCRITERIA FOR THE COMPLEXITY OF SUCCESSIVE ASTRONOMICAL PARADIGMSPanagiotis Papaspirou, Kostas Karamanos, Xenophon MoussasWe investigate the complexity of three successive astronomical paradigms in the science of Physics, namely the Ptolemaic paradigm, the Copernican paradigm and the Keplerian paradigm and mention briefly some characteristic facts about the colossal Newtonian paradigm. This complexity can be understood according to five criteria, as proposed by Thomas Kuhn, the father of the epistemological notion of the paradigm, as … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2014 · 8,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEarly Greek Astrophysics: The Foundations of Modern Science and TechnologyXenophon MoussasThe foundations of modern science and technology, metrology, experimental physics, theoretical physics, theoretical mathematics, astrophysics, including applied optics and spectroscopy go back to the Prehistoric, Presocratic, Classical and Hellenistic Greece. This tradition is well deep rooted in time, going back mainly to the epoch of the prehistoric Aegean sea, the mainland of Greece and the Islands, Cycladic, Euboea, as well … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 4 Feb 2014 · 8,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards a Human-Like AGI Architecture: General Intelligence Framework (GIF)Jiran Kurian Puliyanmakkal, Rohini VArtificial Intelligence (AI) has achieved significant breakthroughs but remains limited by its specialization and inability to generalize across domains, unlike human cognition. Current models such as Large Language Models (LLMs) and Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel at specific tasks but struggle with real-time adaptability and cross-domain generalization. This paper introduces the General Intelligence Framework (GIF), an approach designed to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 13 Jul 2025 · 4,435 accessesView PDFCite
