Quantum Field Theory of Black-Swan Events
Free and weakly interacting particles are described by a secondquantized nonlinear Schrödinger equation, or relativistic versions of it. They describe Gaussian random walks with collisions. By contrast, the fields of strongly interacting particles are governed by effective actions, whose extremum yields fractional field equations. Their particle orbits perform universal Lévy walks with heavy ta...
متن کاملCultivating Emerging and Black Swan Technologies
Emerging technologies, defined as contemporary cutting-edge developments in various fields of technology, are generally associated with the potential for large impact on society. In a recent op-ed, “The coming Tech-led Boom” (Wall Street Journal, January 30, 2012), Mills and Ottino list three grand technological transformations big data, smart manufacturing, and the wireless revolution poised t...
متن کاملEbola virus disease: the ‘Black Swan’ in West Africa
Ebola virus disease (EVD) was first discovered in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1976, and by 2013 had caused approximately 20 recorded outbreaks across East and Central Africa. These had been restricted to rural areas and confined to small clusters of villages. In each case containment was achieved within a few months and after fewer than 500 confirmed cases. The world assumed that EV...
متن کاملRelation between Chance Discovery and Black Swan Awareness
Researchers have been researching for chance discovery more than 10 years. The aim of chance discovery is discover something, but chance discovery is rather different from data mining. In 2007 Taleb introduced a concept ``Black Swan.’’ Taleb uses this rare black swan metaphor to explain how general persons tend to ignore rare or novel events and the importance of being aware of such rare or nov...
متن کاملHunting for the Black Swan: Risk Mining from Text
In the business world, analyzing and dealing with risk permeates all decisions and actions. However, to date, risk identification, the first step in the risk management cycle, has always been a manual activity with little to no intelligent software tool support. In addition, although companies are required to list risks to their business in their annual SEC filings in the USA, these description...
