Reality Mining: Sensing Complex Social Systems

by Nathan Eagle, Alex Pentland - J. OF PERSONAL AND UBIQUITOUS COMPUTING , 2005
"... We introduce a system for sensing complex social systems with data collected from one hundred mobile phones over the course of six months. We demonstrate the ability to use standard Bluetooth-enabled mobile telephones to measure information access and use in different contexts, recognize social patt ..."

The architecture of complexity

by Herbert A. Simon - Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society , 1962
"... A number of proposals have been advanced in recent years for the development of “general systems theory ” that, abstracting from properties peculiar to physical, biological, or social systems, would be applicable to all of them. 1 We might well feel that, while the goal is laudable, systems of such ..."

The structure and function of complex networks

by M. E. J. Newman - SIAM REVIEW , 2003
"... Inspired by empirical studies of networked systems such as the Internet, social networks, and biological networks, researchers have in recent years developed a variety of techniques and models to help us understand or predict the behavior of these systems. Here we review developments in this field, ..."

Error and attack tolerance of complex networks

by Réka Albert, Hawoong Jeong, Albert-László Barabási , 2000
"... Many complex systems display a surprising degree of tolerance against errors. For example, relatively simple organisms grow, persist and reproduce despite drastic pharmaceutical or environmental interventions, an error tolerance attributed to the robustness of the underlying metabolic network [1]. C ..."

The particel swarm: Explosion, stability, and convergence in a multi-dimensional complex space

by Maurice Clerc, James Kennedy - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTION
"... The particle swarm is an algorithm for finding optimal regions of complex search spaces through interaction of individuals in a population of particles. Though the algorithm, which is based on a metaphor of social interaction, has been shown to perform well, researchers have not adequately explained ..."

Epidemic Spreading in Scale-Free Networks

by Romualdo Pastor-satorras, Alessandro Vespignani , 2000
"... The Internet, as well as many other networks, has a very complex connectivity recently modeled by the class of scale-free networks. This feature, which appears to be very efficient for a communications network, favors at the same time the spreading of computer viruses. We analyze real data from c ..."
Abstract - Cited by 575 (15 self) - Add to MetaCart
framework rationalize data of computer viruses and could help in the understanding of other spreading phenomena on communication and social networks. PACS numbers: 05.70.Ln, 05.50.+q Typeset using REVT E X 1 Many social, biological, and communication systems can be properly described by complex

A Theory of the Learnable

by L. G. Valiant , 1984
"... Humans appear to be able to learn new concepts without needing to be programmed explicitly in any conventional sense. In this paper we regard learning as the phenomenon of knowledge acquisition in the absence of explicit programming. We give a precise methodology for studying this phenomenon from ..."

Statistical pattern recognition: A review

by Anil K. Jain, Robert P. W. Duin, Jianchang Mao - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... The primary goal of pattern recognition is supervised or unsupervised classification. Among the various frameworks in which pattern recognition has been traditionally formulated, the statistical approach has been most intensively studied and used in practice. More recently, neural network techniques ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1035 (30 self) - Add to MetaCart
techniques and methods imported from statistical learning theory have bean receiving increasing attention. The design of a recognition system requires careful attention to the following issues: definition of pattern classes, sensing environment, pattern representation, feature extraction and selection

Real-Time Obstacle Avoidance for Manipulators and Mobile Robots

by Oussama Khatib - INT. JOUR OF ROBOTIC RESEARCH , 1986
"... This paper presents a unique real-time obstacle avoidance approach for manipulators and mobile robots based on the artificial potential field concept. Collision avoidance, tradi-tionally considered a high level planning problem, can be effectively distributed between different levels of control, al- ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1345 (28 self) - Add to MetaCart
is used to satisfy the manipulator internal joint con-straints. This method has been implemented in the COSMOS system for a PUMA 560 robot. Real-time collision avoidance demonstrations on moving obstacles have been performed by using visual sensing.

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

by ] Richard Hackman , Grec R Oldham , 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."
Abstract - Cited by 622 (2 self) - Add to MetaCart
into the interdependencies between technical aspects of the work itself and the broader social milieu in which the work is done Yet for all its merit, the socio-technical systems approach provides few explicit specifications of how (and under what circumstances) the work itself and the social surroundings affect one
