Smoothed Complexity Theory [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Computation Theory, 2012
Smoothed analysis is a new way of analyzing algorithms introduced by Spielman and Teng. Classical methods like worst-case or average-case analysis have accompanying complexity classes, such as P and Avg-P, respectively. Whereas worst-case or average-case analysis give us a means to talk about the running time of a particular algorithm, complexity ...

Does application of complexity theory simplify concepts of psychiatry: Analogies and insights

open access: yesIndustrial Psychiatry Journal, 2021
Scientific curiosity has not been able to explain the cause of psychiatric illness based on primarily biological or social paradigm. Available literatures were explored to understand causality of psychiatric illness from perspective of physics. Theory of

Missio Dei through complexity theory: Complexity to total salvation

open access: yesIn die Skriflig, 2022
Complexity theory continues to fascinate the academics owing to its capability to describe complex systems holistically. This theory makes it possible to understand a complex system by studying its constituent subsystems. Understanding the missio Dei has

Optimization of coupling and global collapse in diffusively coupled socio-ecological resource exploitation networks

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Single- and multi-layer complex networks have been proven as a powerful tool to study the dynamics within social, technological, or natural systems. An often observed common goal is to optimize these systems for specific purposes by minimizing certain ...

Complexity Theory of Psychopathology

open access: yesJournal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science, 2020
There is a renewed interest for complex adaptive system approaches that can account for the inherently complex and dynamic nature of psychopathology. Yet, a theory of psychopathology grounded in the principles of complex adaptive systems is lacking. Here, we present such a theory based on the notion of dynamic patterns: patterns that are formed over ...
