Perception and self-organized instability

1/f Dynamic in Complex Visual Search: Evidence for Self-Organized Criticality in Human Perception

Self-organized criticality and dynamic instability of microtubule growth.

We have shown that the distribution of lengths of site nucleated microtubules obey an algebraic power law relationship D(s) = A s(-tau), where D(s) is relative number of microtubules with length s, A and tau are constants. This relationship indicates the possibility of a self-organized criticality in the dynamic instability of microtubule growth.

Self-organization of hierarchical structures in nonlocally coupled replicator models

We study a simple replicator model with non-symmetric and nonlocal interactions. Hierarchical structures with prey-predator relations are self-organized from a homogeneous state, induced by the dynamical instability of nonlinear interactions.

Statistical Prediction of Probable Seismic Hazard Zonation of Iran Using Self-organized Artificial Intelligence Model

The Iranian plateau has been known as one of the most seismically active regions of the world, and it frequently suffers destructive and catastrophic earthquakes that cause heavy loss of human life and widespread damage. Earthquakes are regularly felt on all sides of the region. Prediction of the occurrence location of the future earthquakes along with determining the probability percentage can...

The Relationship among EFL Teachers’ Critical Thinking, Self-efficacy, and their Perception of Effective Teaching

The present study was an attempt, in the first place, to observe whether there was any significant relationship among teachers’ critical thinking, self-efficacy, and perception of effective teaching. Moreover, the researchers tried to examine which variable was a better predictor of perception of effective teaching. To this end, the measures of the critical thinking ability of 143 EFL teachers ...
