On one of those evenings when it seems you have done nothing all day but store and retrieve things, have a kindred thought for your programs. Many of them — like Traffic with its list-like structures representing metro lines — spend a good deal of their time putting objects into ...
When I usually dream during the day, I always think of being a salted fish. It’s better to be able to make a lot of money by shitting with pay. Although data structures and algorithms do not have such a noble dream as mine, their appearance is always the same as mine. Want to in...
(enforced and uprooting), which obviously mirror, and reinforce, collapsing (destroyed) institutional structures (‘failing states’), hence increasing turbulence, short-termism, and decreasing trust, commitment and cooperation, let alone deteriorating cultures of voluntary contributions to collective goods,...
As mentioned earlier, mappings such as the above show that networks are inherent in the structure of all complex systems [Green, 1993; 2000]. An important result of the natural computation paradigm has been to stress the potential of the network model to reconcile different complexity paradigms. ...
“Yo-yo”-like structures having opposite helical handedness evolve from initially formed seemingly achiral cylinders. This non-polyhedral morphology coexists with a continuous coordination network forming homochiral channels. This work sheds light on the enigmatic aspects of fascinating crystallization ...
The theory of causal emergence (CE) with effective information (EI) posits that complex systems can exhibit CE, where macro-dynamics show stronger causal effects than micro-dynamics. A key challenge of this theory is its dependence on coarse-graining met
Clearly, the computational complexity of problems might differ widely. For some the reader will find a (fast) algorithm immediately. For some it might require some efforts to design just any (finite) algorithm. And for some even that might not be possible at all. These fundamental differences ...
We show that with a simple partition tree, called the sliding-midpoint tree, it is possible to achieve linear space and logarithmic query time in the expected case; in contrast, the data structures known to achieve linear space and logarithmic query time in the worst case are complex, and ...

Fig. 1: Meta-Matrix formation and predictability of intrinsic dynamics. aShows the methodological approach we adopted in this study. We parcellate the data spatially and then temporally using the sliding window approach, where one window is comprised of 24 timepoints and is moved forward by one...
