In a previous post we have discussed about a recent work analyzing emergence from the perspective of how software works.
A computational approach to emergence
There are tantalizing phenomena characterized by highly-structured collective behavior that naturally emerges over time from the interactions of more fundamental units or sub-systems, without requiring centralized control or coordination imposed from the external. It is fascinating, since new intervening mechanisms or laws spontaneously appear at scales…
In this post, we continue to discuss about this topic, from a broader perspective. To this aim, I have asked some questions to Prof. Hector Zenil, a complexity scientist with long-standing experience on emergence from the perspective o…
