This Timeline article charts progress in mathematical modelling of cancer over the past 50 years, highlighting the different theoretical approaches that have been used to dissect the disease and ...

Researchers in Britain used math models developed by famed mathematician Alan Turing to figure out why flocks of long-tailed tits separate themselves into different parts of their habitat.

However, insight can come from a surprising place: mathematics. The idea is to create a mathematical model: a cartoon picture of the real world, drawn in the language of math.

If you really want to get into the nuts and bolts of what's happening with learning models, listening to Joel Emer can be an instructive way to meditate on some of the ...

Then Darpa turns around, and sponsors a new project to "develop a mathematical theory to build a functional model of the brain." It's one of 23 "mathematical challenges" issued today by the agency.

The purpose of this investigation is to examine empirical support for the internal/external (I/E) frame of reference model that describes the relation between Verbal and Math self-concepts, and ...

In this paper we survey the construction of Lyapunov functions (or functional) for various ecological models which take the form of ODE systems (or Reaction-Diffusion PDE systems). First we consider ...
