Conceptual Logical Foundations of Artificial Social Intelligence

Eric Werner

What makes a society possible at all? How is coordination and cooperation in social activity possible? What is the minimal mental architecture of a social agent? How is the informa…

Stem Cells: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Eric Werner

Cancer stem cells are controlled by developmental networks that are often topologically indistinguishable from normal, healthy stem cells. The question is why cancer stem cells can…

Stem Cell Networks

Eric Werner

We present a general computational theory of stem cell networks and their developmental dynamics. Stem cell networks are special cases of developmental control networks. Our theory…

Combinatorial Limits of Transcription Factors and Gene Regulatory Networks in Development and Evolution

Eric Werner

Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) consisting of combinations of transcription factors (TFs) and their cis promoters are assumed to be sufficient to direct the development of organism…

A Category Theory of Communication Theory

Eric Werner

A theory of how agents can come to understand a language is presented. If understanding a sentence is to associate an operator with that transforms the representational sta…

What Transcription Factors Can't Do: On the Combinatorial Limits of Gene Regulatory Networks

Eric Werner

A proof is presented that gene regulatory networks (GRNs) based solely on transcription factors cannot control the development of complex multicellular life. GRNs alone cannot expl…
