A spectrum of complexity uncovers Dunbar's number and other leaps in social structure
Martín Saavedra, Jorge Mira, Alberto P Muñuzuri +1
Social dynamics are shaped by each person's actions, as well as by collective trends that emerge when individuals are brought together. These latter kind of influences escape anyon…
Scalable Primitives for Generalized Sensor Fusion in Autonomous Vehicles
Sammy Sidhu, Linda Wang, Tayyab Naseer +6
In autonomous driving, there has been an explosion in the use of deep neural networks for perception, prediction and planning tasks. As autonomous vehicles (AVs) move closer to pro…
Are Dutch and French languages miscible?
Luís F Seoane, Jorge Mira
We study the stability of the cohabitation of French and Dutch in the Brussels-capital region (Belgium). To this aim, we use available time series of fractions of speakers of monol…
Fate of Duplicated Neural Structures
Luís F Seoane
Statistical mechanics determines the abundance of different arrangements of matter depending on cost-benefit balances. Its formalism and phenomenology percolate throughout biologic…
Games in rigged economies
Luís F Seoane
Modern economies evolved from simpler human exchanges into very convoluted systems. Today, a multitude of aspects can be regulated, tampered with, or left to chance; these are econ…
Aging, computation, and the evolution of neural regeneration processes
Aina Ollé-Vila, Luís F. Seoane, Ricard Solé
Metazoans are capable of gathering information from their environments and respond in predictable ways. These computational tasks are achieved by means of more or less complex netw…
Evolutionary aspects of Reservoir Computing
Luís F Seoane
Reservoir Computing (RC) is a powerful computational paradigm that allows high versatility with cheap learning. While other artificial intelligence approaches need exhaustive resou…
The morphospace of language networks
Luís F Seoane, Ricard Solé
Language can be described as a network of interacting objects with different qualitative properties and complexity. These networks include semantic, syntactic, or phonological leve…
Is the coexistence of Catalan and Spanish possible in Catalonia?
Luís F. Seoane, Xaquín Loredo, Henrique Monteagudo +1
We study the stability of two coexisting languages (Catalan and Spanish) in Catalonia (North-Eastern Spain), a key European region in political and economic terms. Our analysis rel…
Modeling the life and death of competing languages from a physical and mathematical perspective
Luís F Seoane, Jorge Mira
Recent contributions address the problem of language coexistence as that of two species competing to aggregate speakers, thus focusing on the dynamics of linguistic traits across p…
Information theory, predictability, and the emergence of complex life
Luís F Seoane, Ricard Solé
Despite the obvious advantage of simple life forms capable of fast replication, different levels of cognitive complexity have been achieved by living systems in terms of their pote…
Zipf's law, unbounded complexity and open-ended evolution
Bernat Corominas-Murtra, Luís Seoane, Ricard Solé
A major problem for evolutionary theory is understanding the so called {\em open-ended} nature of evolutionary change, from its definition to its origins. Open-ended evolution (OEE…
Systems poised to criticality through Pareto selective forces
Luís F Seoane, Ricard Solé
Pareto selective forces optimize several targets at the same time, instead of single fitness functions. Systems subjected to these forces evolve towards their Pareto front, a geome…
Multiobjective Optimization and Phase Transitions
Luís F. Seoane, Ricard Solé
Many complex systems obey to optimality conditions that are usually not simple. Conflicting traits often interact making a Multi Objective Optimization (MOO) approach necessary. Re…
Phase transitions in Pareto optimal complex networks
Luís F Seoane, Ricard Solé
The organization of interactions in complex systems can be described by networks connecting different units. These graphs are useful representations of the local and global complex…
Images from the Mind: BCI image evolution based on Rapid Serial Visual Presentation of polygon primitives
Luís F. Seoane, Stephan Gabler, Benjamin Blankertz
This paper provides a proof of concept for an EEG-based reconstruction of a visual image which is on a user's mind. Our approach is based on the Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (R…
Ambiguity in language networks
Ricard V. Solé, Luís F. Seoane
Human language defines the most complex outcomes of evolution. The emergence of such an elaborated form of communication allowed humans to create extremely structured societies and…
Synthetic biocomputation design using supervised gene regulatory networks
Luís F. Seoane, Ricard V. Solé
The potential of synthetic biology techniques for designing complex cellular circuits able to solve complicated computations opens a whole domain of exploration, beyond experiments…
A multiobjective optimization approach to statistical mechanics
Luís F. Seoane, Ricard V. Solé
Optimization problems have been the subject of statistical physics approximations. A specially relevant and general scenario is provided by optimization methods considering tradeof…
Analytic solution of a model of language competition with bilingualism and interlinguistic similarity
Victoria Otero-Espinar, Luís F. Seoane, Juan J. Nieto +1
An in-depth analytic study of a model of language dynamics is presented: a model which tackles the problem of the coexistence of two languages within a closed community of speakers…
Stochastic Amplification of Fluctuations in Cortical Up-states
Jorge Hidalgo, Luis F. Seoane, Jesus M. Cortes +1
Cortical neurons are bistable; as a consequence their local field potentials can fluctuate between quiescent and active states, generating slow 0.5-2 Hz oscillations which are wide…
Successful attack on permutation-parity-machine-based neural cryptography
Luís F. Seoane, Andreas Ruttor
An algorithm is presented which implements a probabilistic attack on the key-exchange protocol based on permutation parity machines. Instead of imitating the synchronization of the…
