Proud to Be Named to the 2013 Class of Legal Rebels by the ABA Journal
Proud to be honored – promise to keep working hard – and I am really looking forward to sharing some really cool new projects (with Michael J Bommarito II, Michael Bossone, Bill Henderson, J.B Ruhl and many others) that are in the pipeline — coming in 2014!
Complex Systems Models in the Social Science @ UMich ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods
This week and next week I have the pleasure of teaching “Complex Systems Models in the Social Sciences” here at the University of Michigan ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods. The field of complex systems is very diverse and it is difficult to do complete justice to the range of scholarship conducted under this umbrella. However, we strive to cover the canonical topics such as computational game theory and computational modeling, network science, natural language processing, randomness vs. determinism, diffusion, cascades, emergence, empirical approaches to study complexity (including measurement), social epidemiology, non-linear dynamics, etc.
International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Law – ICAIL Rome 2013
Today I had the pleasure of attending the opening workshops/tutorials at the ICAIL Conference in Rome. The program continues tomorrow with the core conference and accepted papers. While I unfortunately will not be able to attend all of the meeting, I suggest that you click here or above to access the program and list of presentations.
How the Science of Swarms Can Help Us Fight Cancer and Predict the Future {via Wired}
We cover the topic of Swarms at great length in the “Complex Systems in the Social Sciences Course” that I co-teach at the University of Michigan ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods. If you are interested in learning more here are some of the slides from last year. The 2013 Edition of the Course Begins in July in Ann Arbor!
