Theoretical Information Reuse and Integration
Information Reuse and Integration addresses the efficient extension and creation of knowledge through the exploitation of Kolmogorov complexity in the extraction and application of domain symmetry. Knowledge, which seems to be novel, can more often than not be recast as the image of a sequence of transformations, which yield symmetric knowledge. When the size of those transformations and/or the…

Stem Cells, Pre-neoplasia, and Early Cancer of the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract
It remains unclear when and where Charles Darwin had his transformative idea of species evolution through random variation and selective retention. The legend goes that the fi rst inklings of the idea came to him on board the Beagle during the ship’s visit to the Galapagos Islands in the Eastern Pacifi c. Here he beheld fi nches with differently shaped beaks, which suggested local adaptat…

Theoretical Developments and Applications of Non-Integer Order Systems 7th C…
This volume is devoted to presentation of new results of research on systems of non-integer order, called also fractional systems. Their analysis and practical implementation have been the object of spontaneous development for a few last decades. The fractional order models can depict a physical plant better than the classical integer order ones. This covers different research fields such as in…
