Contributor(s): Carta, Silvio [editor.].
Publisher: Hoboken, NJ : John Wiley & Sons, 2022Description: xxx, 642 pages : illustrations, maps ; 25 cm.Content type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781119749639; 1119749638.Subject(s): Architecture and technology | City planning | Machine learning | Artificial intelligence | Artificial Intelligence | Architecture et technologie | Apprentissage automatique | Intelligence artificielle | artificial intelligence | Architecture and technology | Artificial intelligence | City planning | Machine learningAdditional physical formats: Online version:: Machine learning and the city.DDC classification: 711/.40285 Summary: "The twentieth century is replete with scientific and mathematical discoveries that have profoundly changed our world view. In physics, within a mere century, our view of the cosmos changed from a classical (Newtonian) to a relativistic one following Einstein's relativity theory in the early 1900s. In mathematics, Hilbert's faith in the closure of formal axiom systems fell apart with G�odel's incompleteness theorem in the 1930s. Out of these ashes of lost deterministic foundations arose the sciences of complex systems, first in the study of non-equilibrium thermodynamics (under the intellectual leadership of Ilya Prigogine in Brussels) and later, in broader interdisciplinary terms, in New Mexico with the establishment of the Santa Fe Institute. Interestingly, a core element of this new paradigm-the notion of emergence-reflects the passage of the sciences and mathematics from a focus on closed and deterministic systems to open and dissipative systems where order, structure or patterns arise seemingly out of nowhere (at least as far as initial and boundary conditions are concerned)."--
