Hi everyone,
I'm Ken Lloyd - Director of Systems Science for Watt Systems Technologies
Inc. in ABQ - a software development company. My interest is in helping
scientists and engineers visualize and better understand complexity in
systems. I serve in the International Council on Systems Engineering
(INCOSE) as the Research Liaison for Model Based Systems Engineering of
Complex, Adaptive and Stochastic systems. One of the interesting things I
have found is that certain characteristics of complexity can be used to
resolve (but not necessarily solve) complex problems (e.g. stochastic
resonance, spontaneous chaos-order transitions)
Like most people in the complexity business, I'm into genetic evolutionary
neural networks like NEAT and HyperNEAT (i.e. Ken Stanley's NeuroEvolution
of Augmenting Topologies), forward and inverse Bayesian methods, statistical
mechanics, graph theory - and of course computer visualization of hyper
dimensional and temporal phenomena.
I look forward to meeting others who strive to apply complexity science to
real-world situations.
Ken Lloyd
