Fast Synchronization of Perpetual Grouping in Laminar Visual Cortical Circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Perceptual grouping is well-known to be a fundamental process during visual perception, notably grouping across scenic regions that do not receive contrastive visual inputs. Illusory contours are a classical example of such groupings.

The Control–Entropy Paradox: Modeling the Thermodynamic Limits of Environmental Governance

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental governance often seeks to reduce disorder, yet the energetic and material costs of control are overlooked. This article presents the Control–Entropy Paradox, developing a formal systems model and a conceptual extension of governance theory.

Unveiling Regional Disparities: Exploring Cybersecurity Capabilities and Performance Through Systems Theory Approach

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between cybersecurity capabilities (CCs) and cybersecurity performance (CP) across diverse regional contexts, employing ordinary least squares (OLS) and random forest (RF) regression models. The research highlights how economic, political and cultural factors shape CCs and their impact on CP ...

Towards a theoretical foundation for morphological computation with compliant bodies

open access: yesBiological cybernetics, 2011
The control of compliant robots is, due to their often nonlinear and complex dynamics, inherently difficult. The vision of morphological computation proposes to view these aspects not only as problems, but rather also as parts of the solution.

The History and Ideas of George Herbert Mead's Pragmatism and Its Relevance for Operational Research and Systems Thinkers

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT George Herbert Mead is an oft forgotten or ignored American philosopher who was one of the originators of pragmatism. Today, he is recognised as a creative thinker who has teased out knotty problems that others in the field had not realised were problems. Understanding Mead's analysis has been made difficult because he died prematurely without

INFRASTRUCTURAL EXTENSIONS: Rethinking Infrastructure in Urban Studies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This essay explores how contemporary urban infrastructure is being conceptually and operationally extended into new domains. Across five key arenas—elemental, care, more‐than‐human, cyber‐physical and the neurotechnical—we trace how infrastructures are no longer confined to traditional networked systems but instead permeate and co‐compose ...

Comparative Satellitomics in Arowanas (Telostei, Osteoglossiformes) Sheds Light on the Evolution of Ancient Satellite DNAs

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work focused on arowana fishes (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as a model; their widespread intercontinental distribution and basal phylogenetic position within Teleostei make them a compelling model for evolutionary research, especially in the realm of satDNA molecular evolution. Through the integration of genomic and chromosomal data, we analyzed
