  2. Actor–network theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor–network_theory

    Nonhuman actors can be considered as members of moral and political associations. For example, noise is a nonhuman actor if the topic is applied to actor-network theory. [10] Noise is the criteria for humans to regulate themselves to morality, and subject to the limitations inherent in some legal rules for its political effects.

  3. Home network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_network

    A home network or home area network (HAN) is a type of computer network that facilitates communication among devices within the close vicinity of a home.Devices capable of participating in this network, for example, smart devices such as network printers and handheld mobile computers, often gain enhanced emergent capabilities through their ability to interact.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychoacoustics

    Psychoacoustics. Psychoacoustics is the branch of psychophysics involving the scientific study of the perception of sound by the human auditory system. It is the branch of science studying the psychological responses associated with sound including noise, speech, and music. Psychoacoustics is an interdisciplinary field including psychology ...

  5. Feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedback

    t. e. A feedback loop where all outputs of a process are available as causal inputs to that process. Feedback occurs when outputs of a system are routed back as inputs as part of a chain of cause-and-effect that forms a circuit or loop. [1] The system can then be said to feed back into itself. The notion of cause-and-effect has to be handled ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-world_experiment

    The small-world experiment comprised several experiments conducted by Stanley Milgram and other researchers examining the average path length for social networks of people in the United States. [ 1 ] The research was groundbreaking in that it suggested that human society is a small-world -type network characterized by short path-lengths.

  7. Bias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias

    [15] [16] [17] According to this heuristic, individuals begin with an implicitly suggested reference point (the "anchor") and make adjustments to it to reach their estimate. [2] For example, the initial price offered for a used car sets the standard for the rest of the negotiations , so that prices lower than the initial price seem more ...

  8. Neuronal noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuronal_noise

    Connectivity noise: Noise that arises from the number of connections and non-uniformity that a neuron has with other neurons within a neuronal network. There is a stronger presence of sub-threshold noise when the interconnectivity is strengthened, or the number of connection to other neurons is increased. [ 10 ]

  9. Cybernetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cybernetics

    Cybernetics is the transdisciplinary study of circular processes such as feedback systems where outputs are also inputs. It is concerned with general principles that are relevant across multiple contexts, [1] including in ecological, technological, biological, cognitive and social systems and also in practical activities such as designing, [2] learning, and managing.
