Our campus is closed to the public for this event. Abstract: Open Source Software is everywhere: from our phones to our cars, behind our banks and health systems, and even on Mars. Last but not least, ...
Monte Carlo simulation is widely used to price complex financial instruments. Recent theoretical results and extensive computer testing indicate that deterministic methods may be far superior in speed ...
We argue that the coordination of the activities of individual complex agents enables a system to develop and sustain complexity at a higher level. We exemplify relevant mechanisms through computer ...
We report a noise-induced delay of bifurcation in a simple pulse-coupled neural circuit. We study the behavior of two neural oscillators, each individually governed by saddle-node dynamics, with ...
It is shown that the distribution of word frequencies for randomly generated texts is very similar to Zipf's law observed in natural languages such as English. The facts that the frequency of ...
In this second working group on the brain we shall build on some of the foundational discussions raised in the first meeting. These included significant debate around the merits of correlation vs.
Our working group aims to explore the role of aging and adaptation in infectious diseases operating over multiple organizational and temporal scales. General areas include immune system dynamics and ...
