• Some examples of natural systems that are often modelled are: predator/prey balances, darwinistic evolution, neural networks, behaviour and learning, ecological interactions, flocking, self organization, emergent behaviour or complexity, reproduction, and genetics, to name a few. ...

• In some cases, it's used to study emergent behaviour, or emergent complexity from a set of simple rules (a trait that fractals also exhibit). ...
• While my personal interest doesn't specifically exclude any particular form of A-Life, my efforts typically fall within the entertainment/artistic range, since most of my projects are more for my own enjoyment, and for sharing the wonder that such things can inspire in people, though I do attempt to make them valid experiments in emergent behaviour, genetic evolution, or other natural processes. ...

• It is your expectation of a more conventional seminar title such as Emergent Recognition Relative to a Model that makes "Great Expectations" seem odd in this context. ... The interesting aspects of the title can be seen as an emergent phenomena resulting from the interaction between the stimulus and the observer's model. ...
• This may seem at first at odds with the definition of emergent systems being greater than the sum of it's parts. ...
• The main problem with most discussions of computational emergence in the literature is the lack of recognition of the important role that the observer plays in the recognition of emergent phenomena. ... Emergence relative to a model addresses this omission by emphasizing the central role that the observer's model of an emergent system has to play. Using this definition emergent properties can be seen to be deviations from the expectations implicit in an observer's model of the system. Thermodynamic and computational emergence can both be reformulated in terms of emergence relative to a model by making explicit the implied expectations held commonly when discussing the emergent phenomena observed in these types of systems. ...
• It may seem to be a contradiction to state that emergent systems can be modelled in order to predict it's behaviour given the previous definition of emergent phenomena being unexpected. ...
• Neural networks have been applied to a wide range of problems and have proved themselves to be a useful technology capable of learning the types of skills required to build models of emergent processes. ...
• The final section of this seminar will build on the subjects of the previous two sections to propose a rough outline of an adaptive computational model capable of recognizing emergent phenomena. ...
• The first step towards building a system capable of modelling emergent phenomena is to devise a scheme for self-organised categorization of inputs. ...

• One of the key ideas is that many mental states, including states which we call "perturbances" in which there is a partial loss of control of attention, are emergent properties of the processes that arise out of normal functioning of combinations of sub-mechanisms that evolved for specific purposes to do with controlling resources. ...
• Notably, in these cases, the re-representation of the problem actually embodies extra "emergent information" dependent on the new concepts introduced, and so is not simply an "alternative formulation" of the problem but also a partial solution. ...

• Moore's subversion of the meaning of "Secondary Superpower" - his high PageRank™ from derives from followers of 'A-list' tech bloggers linking from an eerily similar "Emergent Democracy" discussion list, which in turn takes its name from a similarly essay posted by Joi Ito Lunch - Lunch - Lunch - Segway - Lunch - Lunch - Fawning Parody who is a colossus of authority in these circles, hence lots of PageRank™-boosting hyperlinks, and who like Moore, appeared from nowhere as a figure of authority.
• Lunchin' Ito's essay is uncannily similar to Moore's - both are vague and elusive and fail to describe how the "emergent" democracy might form a legal framework, a currency, a definition of property or - most important this, when you're being hit with a stick by a bastard - an armed resistance (which in polite circles today, we call a "military").

• Thus the new superpower demonstrates a new form of “emergent democracy” that differs from the participative democracy of the US government. ...   Finally, where participation in democracy in the first superpower feels remote to most citizens, the emergent democracy of the second superpower is alive with touching and being touched by each other, as the community works to create wisdom and to take action.
•   In the emergent democracy of the second superpower, each of our minds matters a lot. ...
