Complex networks, ranging from biological systems to technological and social infrastructures, have long intrigued researchers with their intricate connectivity and emergent behaviours. Recent ...

Reducing redundant information to find simplifying patterns in data sets and complex networks is a scientific challenge in many knowledge fields. Moreover, detecting the dimensionality of the data is ...

Archaeologist Silvia Ferrara described the organization of lines by recurring principles—parallelisms, grids, rotations, and systematic repetitions—as an embryonic visual grammar.

A mathematician has developed a new way to uncover simple patterns that might underlie apparently complex systems, such as clouds, cracks in materials or the movement of the stockmarket. The method, ...

Like a child peering through a kaleidoscope, a biologist gazing through a microscope may be amazed by the beautiful geometric patterns formed by cells. However, these cell arrangements do not form ...
