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

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

But just by systematic enumeration the computer was able to find what seemed to me like a very “creative” result. Perhaps even the architecture of the network can change. Probably it’s because neural nets capture the architectural essence of actual brains. and something like an LLM could “creatively” come up with these names.

Will AIs Take All Our Jobs and End Human History—or Not? Well, It’s Complicated…

Stephen Wolfram

People might say: “Computers can never show creativity or originality”. Inevitably there has to be some underlying model for how to do that following—typically in practice just defined by “what a neural net with a certain architecture will do”. What X is supposed to be has changed—and narrowed—over the years. So what’s left?

I’m pretty sure that I am better able than most to appreciate the effort, persistence and creativity that went into that work.
