The constructs of attitudes, emotions, and sentiments are often only verbally defined and therefore somewhat vague. The sentiment construct might be fruitfully modeled as a result of sampling ...

Greetings from the mountains of Santa Fe. In turbulent times for science and society, SFI’s role as “A place removed from the pressure of received ideas” (Murray Gell-Mann) is more important than ever ...

Local causal states are latent representations that capture organized pattern and structure in complex spatiotemporal systems. We expand their functionality, framing them as spacetime autoencoders.

Music is a universal language across time, peoples, and geographies, and also fundamental to our human experience, a result ...

Until recently, using machine learning for a specific task meant training the system on vast amounts of relevant data. The same was true for data representing a system that changes over time, says SFI ...

Bacteria often cooperate by secreting molecules that can be shared as public goods between cells. Because the production of public goods is subject to cheating by mutants that exploit the good without ...

SFI postdoctoral fellow Kaleda Denton has been recognized by the European Society for Evolutionary Biology as the runner-up for the 2025 John Maynard Smith Prize for outstanding young biologists.

Music is a universal language across time, peoples, and geographies, and also fundamental to our human experience, a result of our biological evolution. Despite musicality’s connection to both culture ...

Gagnon, J. S.,Perez-Mercader, J. We study the effect of external power-law noise on the renormalizability of a specific reaction-diffusion system of equations describing a cubic autocatalytic chemical ...

Information flow in adaptively interacting stochastic processes is studied. We give an extended form of game dynamics for interactingMarkovian processes and compute a measure of causal information ...
