The science of complexity aims to answer the question of what rules nature chooses when
assembling the basic constituents of matter and energy into structures and dynamical …

We propose a new mechanism for generating power laws. Starting from a random walk, we
first outline a simple derivation of the Fokker–Planck equation. By analogy, starting from a …

It is well known that many ranked linguistic data can fit well with one-parameter models such
as Zipf's law for ranked word frequencies. However, in cases where discrepancies from the …

Should quality be almost a synonymous of complexity? To measure quality appears to be
audacious, even very subjective. It is hereby proposed to use a multifractal approach in …

Research objectives The main objective of the present dissertation is assessing the
possibility of studying the concept of the linguistic worldview in artificial languages in the …

Key-value stream aggregation is a common operation in distributed systems, which requires
intensive computation and network resources. We propose a generic in-network …

This paper presents a novel dotless representation of Arabic text as an alternative to the
standard Arabic text representation. We delve into its implications through comprehensive …

This paper discusses how artificial languages deal with redundancy at the theoretical level
of planning and in their actual textual manifestations. After a brief introduction to the notion of …

Zipf's law is found when the vocabulary of long written texts is ranked according to the
frequency of word occurrences, establishing a power-law decay for the frequency vs rank …

A filter is adaptive if it achieves a false positive rate of∊ on each query independently of the
answers to previous queries. Many popular filters such as Bloom filters are not adaptive—an …
