(a) We propose a ``static'' construction procedure for random networks with given correlations of the degrees of the nearest-neighbor vertices. This is an equilibrium graph, maximally random under the constraint that its degree-degree…
A variety of statistical methods for noun compound analysis are implemented and compared. The results support two main conclusions. First, the use of conceptual association not only enables a broad coverage, but also improves the accuracy.…
Recordings of increasingly large neural populations have revealed that the firing of individual neurons is highly coordinated. When viewed in the space of all possible patterns, the collective activity forms non-linear structures called…
Neuron models of associative memory provide a new and prospective technology for reliable date storage and patterns recognition. However, even when the patterns are uncorrelated, the efficiency of most known models of associative memory is…
When communicating agents form opinions about a set of possible options, agreement and disagreement are both possible outcomes. Depending on the context, either can be desirable or undesirable. We show that for nonlinear opinion dynamics on…
The concept of structured occurrence nets is an extension of that of occurrence nets which are directed acyclic graphs that represent causality and concurrency information concerning a single execution of a distributed system. The formalism…
Shared Memory is a mechanism that allows several processes to communicate with each other by accessing -- writing or reading -- a set of variables that they have in common. A Consistency Model defines how each process observes the state of…
Free association is a task that requires a subject to express the first word to come to their mind when presented with a certain cue. It is a task which can be used to expose the basic mechanisms by which humans connect memories. In this…
The ever increasing prevalence of publicly available structured data on the World Wide Web enables new applications in a variety of domains. In this paper, we provide a conceptual approach that leverages such data in order to explain the…
An action trace is a function naturally associated to a probability measure preserving action of a group on a standard probability space. For countable amenable groups, we characterise stability in permutations using action traces. We…
We propose a technique to detect and generate patterns in a network of locally interacting dynamical systems. Central to our approach is a novel spatial superposition logic, whose semantics is defined over the quad-tree of a partitioned…
The design of a complex system warrants a compositional methodology, i.e., composing simple components to obtain a larger system that exhibits their collective behavior in a meaningful way. We propose an automaton-based paradigm for…
The current understanding of deep neural networks can only partially explain how input structure, network parameters and optimization algorithms jointly contribute to achieve the strong generalization power that is typically observed in…
When someone mentions the name of a known person we immediately recall her face and possibly many other traits. This is because we possess the so-called associative memory, that is the ability to correlate different memories to the same…
The process of pattern formation for a multi-species model anchored on a time varying network is studied. A non homogeneous perturbation superposed to an homogeneous stable fixed point can amplify, as follows a novel mechanism of…
Traces and their extension called combined traces (comtraces) are two formal models used in the analysis and verification of concurrent systems. Both models are based on concepts originating in the theory of formal languages, and they are…
Pattern formation often occurs in confined systems, yet how boundaries shape patterning dynamics is unclear. We develop techniques to analyze confinement effects in nonlocal advection-diffusion equations, which generically capture the…
This paper introduces a neural network model that learns multiple attributes as images and performs associated, sequential recall of the learned memories. Briefly, the model presented here is an associative memory model that extends…
We estimate density of defects frozen into a biological Turing pattern which was turned on at a finite rate. A self-locking of gene expression in individual cells, which makes the Turing transition discontinuous, stabilizes the pattern…
Patterns are words with terminals and variables. The language of a pattern is the set of words obtained by uniformly substituting all variables with words that contain only terminals. In their original definition, patterns only allow for…
