The modern doctrine of psychophysical
parallelism is not appreciably different from this theory of the Cartesian school.
Distinction between the sterility of first crosses and of hybrids -- Sterility various in degree, not universal, affected by close interbreeding, removed by domestication -- Laws governing the sterility of hybrids -- Sterility not a special endowment, but incidental on other differences -- Causes of the sterility of first crosses and of hybrids -- Parallelism between the effects of changed conditions of life and crossing -- Fertility of varieties when crossed and of their mongrel offspring not universal -- Hybrids and mongrels compared independently of their fertility -- Summary.
Hybrids from two species which are very difficult to cross, and which rarely produce any offspring, are generally very sterile; but the parallelism between the difficulty of making a first cross, and the sterility of the hybrids thus produced--two classes of facts which are generally confounded together--is by no means strict.
In this way the curious
parallelism to animal motions, which was so striking and disturbing to the human beholder, was attained.
Around a great fire which burned on a large, circular flagstone, the flames of which had heated red-hot the legs of a tripod, which was empty for the moment, some wormeaten tables were placed, here and there, haphazard, no lackey of a geometrical turn having deigned to adjust their
parallelism, or to see to it that they did not make too unusual angles.
The forest was here almost composed of the kauri; and the largest trees, from the
parallelism of their sides, stood up like gigantic columns of wood.
Their success lay in their
parallelism to the course of thought, which found in them an unobstructed channel; and the wonders of which they were the visible conductors seemed to the eye their deed.
The
parallelisms which occur in the so-called Apology of Xenophon are not worth noticing, because the writing in which they are contained is manifestly spurious.
Current generation DNNs, such as AlexNet and VGG, rely on dense floating-point matrix multiplication (GEMM) which maps well to the capabilities of GPUs, with their regular
parallelism and high Tflops.
However, the method of increasing the depth of the model often has certain limitations, such as gradient disappearance, computational complexity, and model
parallelism. Model fusion based deep learning may bring better results.
The Shape of Hebrew Poetry: Exploring the Discourse Function of Linguistic
Parallelism in the Egyptian Hallel
Professor Trachtenberg reveals the fascinating implications of these differing modes of thought, including the striking observation that
parallelism, processing ideas simultaneously on multiple tracks, requires moral judgment in order to discern which factors take precedence, while sequentiality precludes moral judgment, since all one can do is to question which first principle takes precedence in a given situation.
