Review of The Computational Beauty of Nature
example, is not participating in emergent behavior. The second theme is the presence of unexpected and interesting behavior in dynamic systems. Flake describes several examples of this, relating them to one another. Emergence—simple behavior in a complex system—is the first instance. Conversely, a simple system can also exhibit complicated behavior but only if it is nonlinear; this revelation w...
متن کاملG. W. Flake, The Computational Beauty of Nature
As the author of The Computational Beauty of Nature (hereafter, abbreviated as CBN) I am grateful for both the complimentary remarks as well as the thoughtful criticisms made by Melanie Moses, Stephanie Forrest, and Martin Berzins. As Moses and Forrest point out, CBN contains many of my intellectual biases and enthusiasms and, as a result, it undoubtedly contains imperfections related to my sub...

متن کاملUsing Neural Networks with Limited Data to Estimate Manufacturing Cost
Neural networks were used to estimate the cost of jet engine components, specifically shafts and cases. The neural network process was compared with results produced by the current conventional cost estimation software and linear regression methods. Due to the complex nature of the parts and the limited amount of information available, data expansion techniques such as doubling-data and data-cr...
متن کاملChaos/Complexity Theory and Education
Sciences exist to demonstrate the fundamental order underlying nature. Chaos/complexity theory is a novel and amazing field of scientific inquiry. Notions of our everyday experiences are somehow in connection to the laws of nature through chaos/complexity theory’s concerns with the relationships between simplicity and complexity, between orderliness and randomness (Retrieved from http://www.inc...
