The Capabilities of Chaos and Complexity [PDF]
To what degree could chaos and complexity have organized a Peptide or RNA World of crude yet necessarily integrated protometabolism? How far could such protolife evolve in the absence of a heritable linear digital symbol system that could mutate ...

How can we think the complex? [PDF]
In this chapter we want to provide philosophical tools for understanding and reasoning about complex systems. Classical thinking, which is taught at most schools and universities, has several problems for coping with complexity.

Automatic Filters for the Detection of Coherent Structure in Spatiotemporal Systems
Most current methods for identifying coherent structures in spatially-extended systems rely on prior information about the form which those structures take. Here we present two new approaches to automatically filter the changing configurations of spatial

The World as Evolving Information [PDF]
This paper discusses the benefits of describing the world as information, especially in the study of the evolution of life and cognition. Traditional studies encounter problems because it is difficult to describe life and cognition in terms of matter and

Projective simulation for classical learning agents: a comprehensive investigation [PDF]
We study the model of projective simulation (PS), a novel approach to arti cial intelligence based on stochastic processing of episodic memory which was recently introduced [1].

Scale-free avalanches in arrays of FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators
The activity in the brain cortex remarkably shows a simultaneous presence of robust collective oscillations and neuronal avalanches, where intermittent bursts of pseudo-synchronous spiking are interspersed with long periods of quiescence.

Methodology for System Adaptation based on Characteristic Patterns [PDF]
This paper describes the methodology for system description and application so that the system can be managed using real time system adaptation. Here, we propose approaches relying on machine learning methods, which would enable to characterize key ...

Transmitted resonance in a coupled system
When two systems are coupled, one can play the role of the driver, and the other can be the driven or response system. In this scenario, the driver system can behave as an external forcing.
