Complexification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In mathematics, the complexification of a vector space V over the real number field is the 'corresponding' vector space V Conversely, given a complex vector space W with a complex conjugation φ, W is isomorphic as a complex vector space to the complexification S In other words, all complex vector spaces with complex conjugation are the complexification of a real vector space. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Complexification   (257 words)

[No title] Functional complexification follows from the need to increase the variety of actions in order to cope with more diverse environmental perturbations, and the need to integrate actions into higher-order complexes in order to minimize the difficulty of decision-making. This also fits in with our general view of structural complexification, where selection first builds up the smaller and fitter subsystems (which are unlikely to disappear in a later stage) as a foundation and then merely experiments with adding less strongly bound systems here or there. Complexification in the temporal dimension corresponds to an increase in the variety and linkage of a system's activities or functions. pespmc1.vub.ac.be /papers/ComplexityGrowth.html   (10834 words)

John Dobson : Complexifications The complexification of the genetic organisms is driven by changes in the environment and imposes complexification on the genetic discriminations. It is important to bear in mind at this threshold, that for simple poly-celled organisms like the sponge the complexification of the poly-celled organism itself is primitive compared to the complexification of the individual cells of which it is composed. And the question which arises here is, whether the genetic complexifications, like the atomic and molecular complexifications before them, are driven simply by the nature of the underlying existence showing through in space and time. www.johndobson.org /articles/complexifications.html   (1975 words)

SideWalk Astronomers - COMPLEXIFICATIONS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) It may already be obvious that the genetic complexifications heretofore discussed are sufficient to require the invention of memory and intelligence. But what may not be so obvious is what drove the particular sequence of complexifications which caused Alfred Russell Wallace to wonder whether the personal interference of divinity might not be required to explain the evolution of the human brain. One of the complexifications which we built in at that beach was what is called neoteny, the carrying over into later life of juvenile characteristics. www.sidewalkastronomers.us /articles/?id=1005   (1251 words)

Rant Open-ended complexification would be the active accelerating of the evolutionary process of memetics. I said that open-ended complexification both embraces and escapes the in-between nature of the human experience. But the beauty of open-ended complexification is not that we would become distanced and escape from reality (which is a possibility), but that we would turn to reality for inspiration for ways to come up with better systems; with beautiful structures; with mind-opening changes of belief. www.wsu.edu /~blogsdon/walking.htm   (1850 words)

5 Experiments In order to demonstrate how complexification enhances performance, we ran thirty-three 500-generation runs of coevolution in the robot duel domain. Complexification was turned off in the remaining 20 runs (although networks were still speciated based on weight differences), in order to see how complexification contributes evolving sophisticated strategies. It should be noted that complexification does not depend on the particular coevolution methodology. www.cs.cmu.edu /afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/jair/pub/volume21/stanley04a-html/node5.html   (1088 words)

Unpacking the Behavioural Quadrant, (Through AQAL Eyes — Part 6), Mark Edwards   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) The Behavioural quadrant is not the domain of the complexification of matter or energies or anything other than that of behaviour. The spectrum of matter-energy complexification that Wilber has recently outlined is a separate facet of holonic development that needs to have its own holonic space. This new spectrum of complexification needs to be separated from the behavioural quadrant and situated into new holonic domains that are defined by a new form-energy dimension. www.integralworld.net /edwards10x.html   (5455 words)

"Tekhné is Fond of Túkhé, and Túkhé of Tekhné" On the contrary, the historico-conceptual, which is to say critical, complexification of energy is directed towards articulating the conditions and transmutations of actuality in fact and in its historical-conceptual comprehension. But it is not a complexification that proposes a philosophical, literary or trans-historical conceptual schema as the condition for its denaturalization. That is, the critical complexification of energy is itself a consequence of the invention of modern technics and its differentiations. tekhnema.free.fr /5Malik.html   (10678 words)

SPRING, 2000 31 NO. 2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) The argument is that genomic complexification is the fundamental force that brings forth new organisms.

arcoNavBanner.gif Complexification is the "metaphysical" side of Miniaturization without which M is hollow, a container in search of a content, a mechanism devoid of intent. Complexification is a measure of how many interactions are being added to a process which mass-energy, spacetime dimensions do not increase, via progressive miniaturization. C is an animating agent and the liveliness of an event is proportional to the Complexity that makes the event possible in the first place. www.arcosanti.org /theory/glossary/complex.html   (211 words)

Complexity drivers At first glance this complexification may appear as a natural consequence of the technological, business and social evolution. The fact of the matter is that the possible positive effects that these intricate rules might have are more than compensated by the global inefficiency that they inevitably create. This is the classical reductionist attempt to "reform" underperforming organizations : if an organization does not deliver the expected results then every "executant" should be prescribed in minute details what he or she ought to do. www.it-cortex.com /Complexity_drivers.htm   (1246 words)

Ritzer Chapter 9 Summary Chizuru Schnell   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) In short, McDonaldization is likely to thrive because of its advantage of rationality, and also because it has succeeded in convincing people of its legitimacy. Although society is postindustrial in many ways, McDonaldization is a widespread phenomenon, since there are roles for both complexification and simplification in different niches of the economy. Using contingency theory, explain in which environments complexification and simplification would be successful. www.wam.umd.edu /~jemote/ritzer9.html   (498 words)

Freud, Energy and Chance: A Conversation with Jean-François Lyotard Following the gist of what you were saying, a step in complexification was made when reproduction passed from scissiparity to the result of the difference between sexes. We have spoken of dialogue and negotiation, and of their absence, we have spoken of processes of complexification, and of the insistence of development, whatever the human may want (which is in fact necessarily unclear). To what extent, for example, is complexification compatible with the demands of the human such as it is, with the human community such as it is? Can these go on modifying themselves in such a way as to remain compatible with processes of complexification? tekhnema.free.fr /5Beardsworth.html   (8402 words)

News & Features: Bacterial self-organization: co-enhancement of complexification and adaptability in.. During colonial development, bacteria generate a wealth of patterns, some of which are reminiscent of those occurring in abiotic systems. Guided by the notion of general biotic motives and principles, I propose that the informative communication between individuals makes possible the enhancement of the individuals’ regulated freedom, while increasing their cooperation. This process is accomplished via cooperative complexification of the colony through self-organization of hierarchical spatio-temporal patterning. www.iscid.org /boards/ubb-get_topic-f-1-t-000138.html   (316 words)

rs3 In a process of complexification, ANNs become increasingly complex over generations, making it possible to build up to the right number of parameters for the task. Complexification from a minimal starting point allowed NEAT to find very small topologies that were easily optimized. While NEAT currently evolves ANNs, complexification can in principle be applied to any structured domain. www.cs.utexas.edu /users/kstanley/application/researchstatement   (1201 words)

A Comparative Analysis of Simplification and Complexification in the Evolut... Approaches to evolving the architectures of artificial neural networks have involved incrementally adding topological features (complexification), removing features (simplification), or both. Experimental comparisons are done using complexification, simplification, and a blend of both. Analysis of the effects of each approach on the variation, complexity, and fitness of the evolving populations demonstrates that algorithms employing both complexification and simplification dynamics search more efficiently and produce more compact solutions. www.cs.bham.ac.uk /~wbl/biblio/gecco2004/prof171.html   (118 words)

Competitive Coevolution through Evolutionary Complexification   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) We demonstrate the power of complexification through the NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT) method, which evolves increasingly complex neural network architectures. NEAT is applied to an open-ended coevolutionary robot duel domain where robot controllers compete head to head. Because the robot duel domain supports a wide range of strategies, and because coevolution benefits from an escalating arms race, it serves as a suitable testbed for studying complexification. www-2.cs.cmu.edu /afs/cs/project/jair/pub/volume21/stanley04a-html   (155 words)

Consciousness   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) Perhaps the most popular theory of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was his Law of Complexification - Consciousness, where he stated that the progressive increase of complexity during evolution was paralleled by an increase in consciousness. This seemed to imply that even the simplest organisms, say viruses and atoms, have a kind of primitive, pre-biological consciousness. Of course, at a particular place and time in history this progress occurs probably less linearly, but with highs and lows. noosphere.cc /consciousnessEvolution.html   (2074 words)

The vision of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) At a certain moment this in-layer complexification comes to a halt (a natural ending point), but complexification itself continues on a superior layer, with systems of the lower layer as building elements for the higher system, that starts an analogous complexification. Along with this complexification there occurs a progressive development of consciousness. His theory can be seen as the history of natural systems. noosphere.cc /teilhardmenu.html   (607 words)
