The complexity of measuring complexity
Mario Iván TarrideThe purpose of this paper is to present a reflection that can contribute to the discussion of the possibility, or not, of measuring the complexity of any given system.
Elements of a cybernetic epistemology: elementary anticipatory systems
Helmut NechanskyThe purpose of this paper is to analyze how elementary anticipation, understood as anticipation of the repetition of one known pattern, can emerge out of sequence learning and how…
Elements of a cybernetic epistemology: complex anticipatory systems
Helmut NechanskyThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the main differences in the cybernetic structures necessary for elementary anticipation, understood as anticipation of the repetition of…
Complexity and endogeneity in economic modeling
Masudul Alam ChoudhuryThe concepts of complexity, endogeneity and circular causation – Myrdal's term was cumulative causation – are shown to be interrelated ones in configuring an economic model in the…
Soft‐computing based navigation approach for a bi‐steerable mobile robot
Ouahiba Azouaoui, Noureddine Ouadah, Ibrahim Mansour, Ali Semani, Salim Aouana, Djafer ChabiThe purpose of this paper is to present an implementation of a soft‐computing (SC) based navigation approach on a bi‐steerable mobile robot, Robucar. This approach must provide…
A novel weighted recursive least squares based on Euclidean particle swarm optimization
Moêz Soltani, Abdelkader ChaariThe purpose of this paper is to present a new methodology for identification of the parameters of the local linear Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy models using weighted recursive least…
A reliable modification of the Adomian decomposition method for higher‐order nonlinear differential equations
Randolph Rach, Abdul‐Majid Wazwaz, Jun‐Sheng DuanThe purpose of this paper is to propose a new modification of the Adomian decomposition method for resolution of higher‐order inhomogeneous nonlinear initial value problems.
Correlation analysis of sequences with interval grey numbers based on the kernel and greyness degree
Zheng‐Xin WangThe purpose of this paper is to propose an extending correlation analysis method to deal with the correlation analysis between the sequences with incomplete information.
Social responsibility: a way of requisite holism of humans and their well‐being
Simona Šarotar Žižek, Matjaž MulejThe purpose of this paper is to provide a new non‐technological innovation to manage socio‐economic crises. Economic theory, which is one‐sided and fails, cannot manage these…
Cybernetics and systems on the web: Topics in CYBCOM list, “wet” neurophysiology, carbon computing
Alex M. AndrewTopics that have arisen in the CYBCOM list are discussed, including a link to a valuable online collection of papers having a bearing on cybernetics and an intriguing paper…
