Simple mathematical law benchmarks human confrontations
Many high-profile societal problems involve an individual or group repeatedly attacking another - from child-parent disputes, sexual violence against women, civil unrest, violent conflicts and acts of terror, to current cyber-attacks on national infrastructure and ultrafast cyber-trades attacking stockholders. There is an urgent need to quantify the likely severity and timing of such future act...
متن کاملDo Cottonmouths (agkistrodon Piscivorus) Habituate to Human Confrontations?
The defensive behavior of snakes towards humans has been well documented. Ironically, many of these early studies focused on harmless colubrid species. Knowledge of venomous snake defensive behavior is limited, and further research is necessary to understand how pitvipers react to human confrontations. I performed laboratory tests daily over a period of five days to investigate whether cottonmo...
متن کاملBenford’s Law Strikes Back: No Simple Explanation in Sight for Mathematical Gem
T he widely known phenomenon called Benford’s Law continues to defy attempts at an easy derivation. This article briefly reviews recurring flaws in ‘‘back-ofthe-envelope’’ explanations of the law, and then analyzes in more detail some of the recently published attempts, many of which replicate an apparently unnoticed error in Feller’s classic 1966 text An Introduction to Probability Theory and ...
متن کاملMathematical Complexity of Simple Economics
lesson learned from modern dynamics is that natural systems can be surprisingly complex. No longer are we astonished to discover that systems from, say, biology (e.g., [GOI, Ma1, Ma2]) or the Newtonian n-body problem (e.g., [MM, Mo, Mk, SX, X]) admit all sorts of previously unexpected dynamical behavior. This seeming randomness, however, sharply contrasts with what we have been conditioned to e...
متن کاملFast and Simple Data Scaling for OBDA Benchmarks
In this paper we describe VIG, a data scaler for OBDA benchmarks. Data scaling is a relatively recent approach, proposed in the database community, that allows for quickly scaling an input data instance to n times its size, while preserving certain application-specific characteristics. The advantages of the scaling approach are that the same generator is general, in the sense that it can be re-...
