In this paper we observe that 2-dimensional 0-surgery occurs in natural processes, such as tornado formation and other phenomena reminiscent of hole drilling. Inspired by such phenomena, we introduce new theoretical concepts which enhance the formal definition of 2-dimensional 0-surgery with the observed dynamics. To d…

Topological surgery occurs in natural phenomena where two points are selected and attracting or repelling forces are applied. The two points are connected via an invisible `thread'. In order to model topologically such phenomena we introduce dynamics in 1-, 2- and 3-dimensional topological surgery, by means of attracti…

Suppose you look at today's stock prices and bet on the value of the first digit. One could guess that a fair bet should correspond to the frequency of 1/9=11.111/9 = 11.11% for each digit from 1 to 9. This is by no means the case, and one can easily observe a strong prevalence of the small values over the large ones. The fir…

The present paper considers if the new proposed conformal geometrodynamics (CGD) can extend the Nature features compared with general theory of relativity (GTR). The answer for this question can be connected with unique phenomenon arising from Riemann space transition used in GTR, to Weyl space used in CGD. We have in …

Much recent work has concerned sparse approximations to speed up the Gaussian process regression from the unfavorable O(n3) scaling in computational time to O(nm2). Thus far, work has concentrated on models with one covariance function. However, in many practical situations additive models with multiple covariance func…

Learning the distribution of natural images is one of the hardest and most important problems in machine learning. The problem remains open, because the enormous complexity of the structures in natural images spans all length scales. We break down the complexity of the problem and show that the hierarchy of structures …
