Exploitation and exploration in text evolution. Quantifying planning and translation flows during writing
Here, we introduce measures to detect and quantify subcycles of planning (exploration) and translation (exploitation) during the writing process.
Interacting discovery processes on complex networks
Innovation is the driving force of human progress.

Unsupervised inference approach to facial attractiveness
The perception of facial beauty is a complex phenomenon depending on many, detailed and global facial features influencing each other.
Subjectivity and complexity of facial attractiveness
The origin and meaning of facial beauty represent a longstanding puzzle.
Complexity Reduction in the Negotiation of New Lexical Conventions
We define here a new principled measure and a new strategy, based on the beliefs of each agent on the global state of the population.
Maximum entropy models capture melodic styles
We introduce a Maximum Entropy model able to capture the statistics of melodies in music.
On the emergence of syntactic structures: quantifying and modelling duality of patterning
First, we introduce suitable measures to quantify the level of combinatoriality and compositionality in a language, and present a framework to estimate these observables in human natural languages.
Internal and external dynamics in language: Evidence from verb regularity in a historical corpus of English
These findings contribute to the debate on how language systems become rule governed, and how and why they sustain exceptions to rules, providing insight into the interplay between the emergence and maintenance of rules and exceptions in language.
Individual Biases, Cultural Evolution, and the Statistical Nature of Language Universals: The Case of Colour Naming Systems
Language universals have long been attributed to an innate Universal Grammar.
