This binary bias, seen in the ubiquity of pair-wise networks and formal binary operations in mathematical models, limits our capacity to faithfully capture irreducible polyadic interactions in higher-order systems. A paradigmatic example of a higher-order interaction is the Borromean link of three interlocking rings. In this paper, we propose a mathematical framework via hypergraphs and hypermatrix algebras that allows to formalize such forms of higher-order bonding and connectivity in a parsimonious way. Our framework builds on and extends current techniques in higher-order networks — still mostly rooted in binary structures such as adjacency matrices — and incorporates recent developments in higher-arity structures to articulate the compositional behavior of adjacency hypermatrices. Irreducible higher-order interactions turn out to be a widespread occurrence across natural sciences and socio-cultural knowledge representation. We demonstrate this by reviewing recent results in computer science, physics, chemistry, biology, ecology, social science, and cultural analysis through the conceptual lens of irreducible higher-order interactions. We further speculate that the general phenomenon of emergence in complex systems may be characterized by spatio-temporal discrepancies of interaction arity.","PeriodicalId":50871,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Complex Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135191254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such network serves as an important tool to study the network structure of alters of the ego, and it is essential to present such network with good visualization. This work aims at introducing an efficient method, namely the Uniform Placement of Alters on Spherical Surface (U-PASS), to represent an ego-centric network so that all alters are scattered on the surface of the unit sphere uniformly. Unlike other simple uniformity that considers to maximize Euclidean distances among nodes, U-PASS is a three-stage method that spreads the alters with the consideration of existing edges among alters, no overlapping of node clusters, and node attribute information. Particle swarm optimization is employed to improve efficiency in node allocations. To guarantee the uniformity, we show the connection between our U-PASS to the minimum energy design on a two-dimensional flat plane with a specific gradient. Our simulation study shows good performance of U-PASS in terms of some distance statistics when compared to four state-of-the-art methods via self-organizing maps and force-driven approaches. We use a Facebook network to illustrate how this ego-centric network looks different after the alter nodes are allocated via our U-PASS.","PeriodicalId":50871,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Complex Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135765348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional SCSLR methods usually rely on computer vison sensors, which are susceptible to effects such as hand shapes, lighting conditions, and occlusions, resulting in low recognition accuracy. Additionally, sensor-based SCSLR methods cannot achieve high recognition accuracy due to limited hand gesture information. In this paper, we propose a multi-sensor fusion method, using a DE–XGBoost model, to fuse the information of hand gesture and finger curvature to achieve the SCSLR, which can overcome the recognition error problems caused by insufficient sign language information. In addition, we design and implement a prototype system, which consists of a smartphone and a smart glove, to evaluate our proposed method in comparison with support vector machine (SVM), XGBoost, gcForest, and artificial neural network (ANN). Experimental results show that our proposed method achieves a better performance in terms of accuracy, robustness, and real-time processing.","PeriodicalId":50871,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Complex Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135765492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
