Global food systems have increased in complexity significantly since the mid-twentieth century, through such innovations as mechanization, irrigation, genetic modification, and globalization of supply chains. While complexification can be an effective problem-solving strategy, over-complexification cause environmental degradation lead to become increasingly dependent on external subsidies vulne...

We study the complexification of real Hilbert C∗-modules over real C∗-algebras. We give an example of a Hilbert Ac-module that is not the complexification of any Hilbert A-module, where A is a real C∗-algebra.

Approaches to evolving the architectures of artificial neural networks have involved incrementally adding topological features (complexification), removing features (simplification), or both. We will present a comparative study of these dynamics, focusing on the domains of XOR and Tic-Tac-Toe, using NEAT (NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies) as the starting point. Experimental comparisons a...
