Mathematics at the eve of a historic transition in biology
A century ago physicists and mathematicians worked in tandem and established quantum mechanism. Indeed, algebras, partial differential equations, group theory, and functional analysis underpin the foundation of quantum mechanism. Currently, biology is undergoing a historic transition from qualitative, phenomenological and descriptive to quantitative, analytical and predictive. Mathematics, again, becomes a driving force behind this new transition in biology.

Learning from the past: predicting critical transitions with machine learning trained on surrogates of historical data
Complex systems can undergo critical transitions, where slowly changing environmental conditions trigger a sudden shift to a new, potentially catastrophic state. Early warning signals for these events are crucial for dec…
Decision MakingSociologySpecificityFruit flies and moduli: interactions between biology and mathematics
Possibilities for using geometry and topology to analyze statistical problems in biology raise a host of novel questions in geometry, probability, algebra, and combinatorics that demonstrate the power of biology to influ…
Information Compression, Intelligence, Computing, and Mathematics
This paper presents evidence for the idea that much of artificial intelligence, human perception and cognition, mainstream computing, and mathematics, may be understood as compression of information via the matching and …
ChunkingInformation RetrievalRetrievalThe Non-Optimality of Scientific Knowledge: Path Dependence, Lock-In, and The Local Minimum Trap
Science is widely regarded as humanity's most reliable method for uncovering truths about the natural world. Yet the \emph{trajectory} of scientific discovery is rarely examined as an optimization problem in its own righ…
A novel association and ranking approach identifies factors affecting educational outcomes of STEM majors
Improving undergraduate success in STEM requires identifying actionable factors that impact student outcomes, allowing institutions to prioritize key leverage points for change. We examined academic, demographic, and ins…
