How can we unravel the complex history of networks?

Futurum

Dr Min Xu, a statistician specialising in network analysis at Rutgers University, has developed a probabilistic model that can determine how a network has grown, which not only has applications in epidemiology, but is also useful in social science, genetics and counter-terrorism efforts. What is a network? “A

Charting a Course for “Complexity”: Metamodeling, Ruliology and More

Stephen Wolfram

But it really wasn’t physics, or computer science, or math, or biology, or economics, or any known field. But the more important strand has been one that starts to actually take the computational paradigm on board—with the thrust typically being “We can write a program to reproduce what we’re looking at”. What is that science?

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

Traditional computational chemistry—perhaps sped up by AI—can potentially determine the rates at which different alkanes are “randomly produced” And in a quite different direction, analyzing the academic literature—say with an LLM—can potentially predict how much a certain alkane can be expected to be studied or talked about.

Remembering the Improbable Life of Ed Fredkin (1934–2023) and His World of Ideas and Stories

Stephen Wolfram

In 2015 Ed told me a nice story about his time at Caltech: In 1952–53, I was a student in Linus Pauling’s class where he lectured Freshman Chemistry at Caltech. “Lick” Licklider —who persuaded Ed to join BBN to “teach them about computers”. Nowadays we’d call it the trie (or prefix tree) data structure.
