Many systems in nature can settle into several different stable states, with the final state depending on their starting ...

Continuous bump attractor networks (CBANs) are a prevailing model for how neural circuits represent continuous variables. CBANs maintain these representations by temporally integrating inputs that ...

In a new study, scientists have investigated the pervasive low-rank hypothesis in complex systems, demonstrating that despite high-dimensional nonlinear dynamics, many real networks exhibit rapidly ...

Living organisms, our planet and even the entire universe are getting ever more complex with time. "Complex" doesn't just mean "complicated": it means that the parts of a system interact in ways that ...

Complex systems such as metabolic pathways, ecosystems, the Internet, or human societies are comprised of large numbers of components that interact according to rules that change over time and that ...

Philanthropy, especially in the United States and Europe, is increasingly espousing the idea that transformative shifts in social care, education, and health systems are needed. Yet successful ...

New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia are currently affected by a massive complex low pressure system, dropping temperatures and bringing rain, hail, wind and snow. While complex low ...

Newswise — With the rapid development of engineering technology, complex engineered systems are evolving toward a more integrated form—systems-of-systems (SoS). SoS has been widely applied in ...

Living organisms, our planet and even the entire universe are getting ever more complex with time. “Complex” doesn’t just mean “complicated”: it means that the parts of a system interact in ways that ...
