Object recognition
Object recognition is the process of identifying objects in images or videos. It involves segmenting objects from scenes, labeling objects, and extracting parametric descriptions. Object recognition has many applications including locating objects to recognize other objects or guide actions. It involves binding visual features into coherent objects and binding objects into spatial arrangements. Major challenges include handling different viewpoints and solving the binding problem of associating features with objects. Common approaches to object recognition include template matching, hierarchical processing of features, and recognizing objects as combinations of geometric parts or geons.

Social Cognition
This document discusses social cognition and related topics including motivation and social processing goals, personal control, and social situations and social competence. Some key points include:
- Personal goals and priorities shift across the lifespan from achievement to balance to reevaluation.
- Older adults emphasize emotional goals by focusing on positive emotions and avoiding negative ones.
- Personal control involves both primary control of external actions and secondary cognitive control of the self. Both types of control strategies are important for well-being.
- Social contexts can facilitate cognition and memory in older adults, such as through collaborative problem solving and storytelling with others.
Complexity Theory Basic Concepts
This document provides an overview of complexity theory and complex adaptive systems. It discusses how complex systems exist on the "edge of chaos," where they have enough stability to maintain their structure but also enough flexibility to adapt to changes. The edge of chaos allows systems to learn and evolve over time. It provides examples of how living systems, democracies, markets, and organizations can be considered complex adaptive systems that operate on the edge between order and disorder.

The Organization of the Living, Humberto Maturana, 1974
This document presents Humberto Maturana's theory of autopoiesis, which proposes that:
1) Living systems are autopoietic systems that continuously self-produce their own components through network interactions.
2) An autopoietic system's primary function is to realize its own autopoiesis or it will disintegrate.
3) The nervous system is a closed network of interacting neurons that generates states contributing to the organism's autopoiesis.

Complex Adaptive Systems Theory
The document provides an introduction to complex adaptive systems theory. It discusses how complex systems like ecologies and social systems exist in a state of dynamic stability at the "edge of chaos" where they have enough stability to sustain themselves but also enough creativity for change and innovation. The edge of chaos allows systems to adapt to changes in their environment. Complex adaptive systems have several key characteristics, including that they are made up of autonomous agents that interact through shared rules in a networked structure, allowing for profuse experimentation and occasional rapid shifts in shape or direction in response to changes.

The Organ System
Here are the key aspects of a production system:
- It involves the transformation of inputs (raw materials, components) into outputs (finished goods and services) through linked activities and processes.
- The main components are people, machines, materials, information and energy. These work together in a coordinated manner to produce goods and services.
- Production systems aim to achieve objectives like high productivity, quality products, low costs and flexibility through efficient use of resources.
- There are different types of production systems like job production, batch production, mass production and lean production systems. The type used depends on factors like volume, variety, costs etc.
- Production planning and control is important to ensure smooth workflow and meet production targets
The Social Psychology Of Organizations
This book provides a summary of The Social Psychology of Organizations by Daniel Katz and Robert L. Kahn. It begins with an introduction discussing the origins and focus of the book. The book then aims to extend previous research by conceptualizing organizations using an open system point of view. It analyzes organizational structures and processes using concepts like roles, norms, values, and subsystems. Overall, the book seeks to link the individual and organizational levels of analysis using the concept of organizational roles.
Complexadaptivesystemstheory 12613245196525-phpapp02
This document provides an introduction to complex adaptive systems theory. It explains that complex adaptive systems exist on the "edge of chaos," with enough stability to sustain themselves but also enough creativity for change and adaptation. Systems on this edge experience periods of order and disorder, with new patterns emerging during times of disequilibrium that allow for reintegration at a higher level of organization. The edge of chaos provides systems with the ability to learn, evolve, and adapt in response to changes in their environment.
Mechanistic systems
This document discusses different types of systems:
1. Mechanistic systems operate with regularity dictated by their internal structure and causal laws of nature. Clocks and automobiles are examples of mechanistic systems that have no purposes of their own but serve the purposes of others.
2. Animate systems are living systems like people whose parts have no purposes of their own but function to enable the system to survive. Animate systems must interact with their environments to survive.
3. Social systems have purposes of their own and consist of parts including animate systems that also have purposes. Social systems are nested within larger social systems like governments.
4. Ecological systems contain mechanistic, animate, and social systems
Understanding complexity and Why Agile works only if done right
An attempt to see agile from the context of complexity theory and why compromising on the basics won't help us be agile. A good understanding of complexity theory and application would help to have a robust agile implementation.
UNIT2.ppt
This document defines systems and types of systems. It discusses:
- Systems have organized parts that work together towards an overall goal, with inputs, processes, outputs, and feedback.
- Types of systems include deterministic and probabilistic, open and closed, natural and manufactured, social and machine.
- Deterministic systems operate predictably while probabilistic systems have uncertain behavior. Open systems interact with the environment but closed systems do not.
Systems thinking
This document discusses systems thinking and key concepts related to systems. It defines systems thinking as the cognitive process of studying and understanding systems of any kind by examining the linkages and interactions between interconnected components. A system is defined as a set of elements organized in a structure that produces characteristic behaviors. Key components of systems include elements, interconnections, and function. The document contrasts System 1 and System 2 thinking and provides examples. It emphasizes that systems thinking is needed to address problems created by more simplistic levels of thinking.
Towards a social action analysis of organizations
This document discusses different models for analyzing organizations, including their strengths and weaknesses. It argues that viewing organizations solely as closed systems or seeing their goals as separate from individuals poses problems. A social action model is proposed that focuses on 1) establishing the ends of different groups within organizations, 2) determining conflicts between these ends, and 3) understanding how ends relate to the social situation, both inside and outside the organization. This provides a paradigm that integrates individuals' goals into the analysis of organizations.

Structural Functionalism views society as a structure of interconnected institutions that work together to ensure stability and meet the needs of individuals. Theorists like Comte, Spencer, and Parsons proposed that societies function like organisms, with different parts adapting to maintain equilibrium. Critics argue it fails to account for social change, inequality, and conflict that can disrupt the balance between institutions.

Structural Functionalism views society as a structure of interconnected institutions that work together to ensure stability and meet the needs of individuals. Theorists like Comte, Spencer, and Parsons proposed that societies function like organisms where all parts depend on each other, and any imbalance or conflict in one area is resolved for the benefit of the whole system. Critics argue that Structural Functionalism ignores social tensions, contradictions, and inequalities that can lead to change rather than stability.
Article3
This book discusses organizational psychology from an open systems perspective. It examines how organizations function as social systems with complex interactions between individuals and subsystems. The book defines key concepts like organizational roles, effectiveness, and structures. It presents a framework for understanding how organizations develop over time and compares different models of organizational theory. The goal is to analyze organizations using an integrated social science approach that considers both micro and macro levels of analysis.
CST 20363 Session 2
The document discusses systems thinking and various systems thinking concepts and tools. It defines systems thinking as examining how problems are created and seeing the big picture by understanding how structure influences system performance. It discusses key systems thinking concepts like complex adaptive systems, feedback loops, stocks and flows. It also outlines different systems thinking tools like causal loop diagrams, stock and flow maps, behavior over time graphs and system archetypes that can help understand complex systems.

Describe the levels of organization in living system and some of the methods of classification.
Describe the levels of organization in living system and some of the methods of classification.
Solution
Answer:
The levels of organization in living system are:
(1) Organelle and cellular level
All living organisms have cellular level of organization, be it unicellular or multicellular. The
cell is the unit of life which carries out the necessay functions for survival. The functions are in
turn divided among different organelles present inside the cell. The prokaryotes have small set of
organelles while eukaryotes have richer collection of organelles which are more complex.
(2) Tissue level
Tissues are composed of similar type of cells which are same in origin and function. For
example, nerve cells have the same origin and function and forms the nervous tissue. These are
found in multicellular organisms.
(3) Organ level
Different tissues having similar functions together form the organ system in multicellular
organisms. Stomach is a digestive organ which are composed of muscular tissue for contraction
and secretory epithelium for gastric juice secretion.
(4) Organ system
When a number of organs group together to perform one or more functions, it forms an organ
system. Examples-Respiratory system, endocrine sytem and circulatory system, etc.
(5) Organism
An entire living being which can carry out all the necessary functions for basic processes is
called organism. An organism is usually made up of organ systems, but may be unicellular as in
case of bacteria.
Some methods of biological classification have been discussed as under:
(1) Natural system of classification:
In this system of classification, anatomy, physiology, pathology, biochemistry, reproduction &
cytology are taken into account to compare relationships among organisms. It is considered
advantageous over the artificial system of classification. This sytem was proposed by Bentham
and Hooker.
(2) Artificial sytem:
In this sytem of classification, external features such as form and shape are used for comparing
relationships among organisms. Since it does not take into account the internal properties such as
anatomy, pathology and biochemistry among others, it is difficult to to study evolution. Linnaeus
system of classification is considered as artificial.
(3) Phylogenetic classification:
It is classified on the basis of evolutionary relationships among organisms and is based upon
Darwin\'s theory of natural selection.
(4) Phenetic classification:
For classification, it takes relies upon similarities and disimilarities among organisms, but do not
take into account the evolutionary relationships.
(5) Cytotaxonomy:
It is classified based upon cytological features such as number of chromosomes..
SYSTEM THINKING
This seminar report provides an overview of systems thinking and key concepts. It defines systems thinking as viewing problems as parts of an overall system rather than in isolation. A system is a collection of parts integrated to accomplish an overall goal, with inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes, and feedback. Systems can be biological, mechanical, social, or other types and range from simple to complex. Systems theory studies principles that can be applied to all types of systems. Some basic principles of systems thinking discussed are that change is slow but lasting, cause and effect are not always closely linked, and easy answers often do not address complexity. The report also lists examples of systems principles like how a system's behavior depends on its structure and how systems seek
Paper 6: A Structure for Performance (Dudley)
The document discusses theories of systems and homeostasis. It proposes that Beer's "3-4-5" model of homeostasis assumes a fixed system identity, whereas recent work suggests identity is plastic and adapts to environmental changes. The concept of a "trialogue" is introduced as a three-way conversation between managing the present, creating the future, and negotiating identity, allowing systems to maintain continuity while adapting their identity over time in response to pressures.
Systems thinking 1
The document discusses systems thinking and key concepts about systems. It defines a system as (1) created by nature or humans, (2) physical, abstract, or composed of humans, (3) separated from its environment by a border, and (4) either open or closed. Systems are hierarchical with different levels that influence levels below but cannot be directly derived from higher levels. The document contrasts mechanistic and systemic worldviews and discusses open systems, feedback, homeostasis, and learning systems.
Online Communities in Citizen Science & BirdCams
This document discusses online citizen science communities and bird cams. It describes how citizen science involves members of the public engaging in real-world scientific research through crowdsourcing and collaboration. It then focuses on how bird cams, which livestream nests and feeders, have emerged as online communities where people can observe and discuss bird activity in real-time. While most viewers never chat, many read discussions. Bird cams present unexpected outcomes like self-organizing social groups and emotional engagement. Sustainability relies on donations, merchandise, and fundraising by chat participants.
Free as in Puppies: Compensating for ICT Constraints in Citizen Science
This document discusses how citizen science project organizers address issues related to participation and data quality when limited by resource constraints. It notes that while ideal information and communication technologies (ICT) could help with recruitment, retention, and data quality, free ICT options are often not sufficient due to lack of funding. The document presents three citizen science projects that have contrasting resource levels and explores how they creatively address these issues through alternative solutions like in-person outreach, paper data collection, and process optimization. It concludes by discussing implications for practice, policy, and CSCW research around leveraging complementary resources when full ICT capabilities are not possible.
