Enlarged housing space and increased spatial complexity enhance hippocampal neurogenesis but do not increase physical activity in mice [PDF]
Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2023 IntroductionEnvironmental enrichment (EE) improves various health outcomes, such as hippocampal neurogenesis, in rodents, which is thought to be caused, in part, by increased physical activity.

Altered Microstate Dynamics and Spatial Complexity in Late-Life Schizophrenia [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022 BackgroundResting-state EEG microstate and omega complexity analyses have been widely used to explore deviant brain function in various neuropsychiatric disorders. This study aimed to investigate the features of microstate dynamics and spatial complexity

Entropy, complexity, and spatial information [PDF]
Journal of Geographical Systems, 2014 We pose the central problem of defining a measure of complexity, specifically for spatial systems in general, city systems in particular. The measures we adopt are based on Shannon's (in Bell Syst Tech J 27:379-423, 623-656, 1948) definition of ...

Environmental enrichment: a systematic review on the effect of a changing spatial complexity on hippocampal neurogenesis and plasticity in rodents, with considerations for translation to urban and built environments for humans [PDF]
Frontiers in NeuroscienceIntroductionHippocampal neurogenesis is critical for improving learning, memory, and spatial navigation. Inhabiting and navigating spatial complexity is key to stimulating adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) in rodents because they share similar ...

Spatial complexity facilitates ordinal mapping with a novel symbol set. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 The representation of number symbols is assumed to be unique, and not shared with other ordinal sequences. However, little research has examined if this is the case, or whether properties of symbols (such as spatial complexity) affect ordinal learning ...

The spatial complexity of optical computing: toward space-efficient design [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSimilar to algorithms, which consume time and memory to run, hardware requires resources to function. For devices processing physical waves, implementing operations needs sufficient “space,” as dictated by wave physics.

Controlling Complexity in Spatial Modelling [PDF]
, 2000 The present complexity approach is based on two assumptions: A1: measurability of deviations of outcomes with respect to reference values; A2 : extension of A1 to multi-set analysis.

A Ubiquitous Collective Tragedy in Transport
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 A tragedy of the commons is said to occur when individuals act only in their own interest but, in so doing, create a collective state of a group that is less than optimal due to uncoordinated action.
