If we interpret the law general, then any kind of e.g., clustering analysis, correlation analysis, looks for similarities between different dimensions... ]]> 2018-04-03 15:18:29 UTC https://padlet.com/julia_villette/6mu59dawc3nq/wish/248160817 The law is often implicit in assumptions we make https://padlet.com/julia_villette/6mu59dawc3nq/wish/248161944 E.g., it is more probable that a person was in a bus if he was close to a bus line. ]]> 2018-04-03 15:20:50 UTC https://padlet.com/julia_villette/6mu59dawc3nq/wish/248161944 Distance metrics? https://padlet.com/julia_villette/6mu59dawc3nq/wish/248162880 A very prominent feature (e.g. Uetliberg) might be cognitively closer although it's spatially more distant from you. So, if the distance metrics is prominence, then the law would hold true. ]]> 2018-04-03 15:22:44 UTC https://padlet.com/julia_villette/6mu59dawc3nq/wish/248162880
