TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that this leverage cycle can be damaging to the economy and should be regulated, and that equilibrium determines leverage, not just interest rates, causing fluctuations in asset prices.
Abstract: Equilibrium determines leverage, not just interest rates. Variations in leverage cause fluctuations in asset prices. This leverage cycle can be damaging to the economy, and should be regulated.

TL;DR: In this paper, ARTIS is applied to computer security in the form of a network intrusion detection system called LISYS, which is shown to be effective at detecting intrusions, while maintaining low false positive rates.
Abstract: An artificial immune system (ARTIS) is described which incorporates many properties of natural immune systems, including diversity, distributed computation, error tolerance, dynamic learning and adaptation, and self-monitoring. ARTIS is a general framework for a distributed adaptive system and could, in principle, be applied to many domains. In this paper, ARTIS is applied to computer security in the form of a network intrusion detection system called LISYS. LISYS is described and shown to be effective at detecting intrusions, while maintaining low false positive rates. Finally, similarities and differences between ARTIS and Holland's classifier systems are discussed.

TL;DR: The resulting models display epidemic behavior when the infection or transmission probability rises above the threshold for site or bond percolation on the network, and are given exact solutions for the position of this threshold in a variety of cases.
Abstract: We study some simple models of disease transmission on small-world networks, in which either the probability of infection by a disease or the probability of its transmission is varied, or both. The resulting models display epidemic behavior when the infection or transmission probability rises above the threshold for site or bond percolation on the network, and we give exact solutions for the position of this threshold in a variety of cases. We confirm our analytic results by numerical simulation.

TL;DR: Swarm is a multi-agent software platform for the simulation of complex adaptive systems that supports hierarchical modeling approaches whereby agents can be composed of swarms of other agents in nested structures.
Abstract: Swarm is a multi-agent software platform for the simulation of complex adaptive systems. In the Swarm system the basic unit of si8mulation is the swarm, a collection of agents executing a schedule of actions. Swarm supports hierarchical modeling approaches whereby agents can be composed of swarms of other agents in nested structures. Swarm provides object oriented libraries of reusable components for building models and analyzing, displaying, and controlling experiments on those models. Swarm is currently available as a beta version in full, free source code form. It requires the GNU C Compiler, Unix, and X Windows. More information about Swarm can be obtained from our web pages, [ Swarm ].

TL;DR: This article examined how participation in a micro-finance program diffuses through social networks and found that participants are significantly more likely to pass information on to friends and acquaintances than informed non-participants.
Abstract: We examine how participation in a microfinance program diffuses through social networks. We collected detailed demographic and social network data in 43 villages in South India before microfinance was introduced in those villages and then tracked eventual participation. We exploit exogenous variation in the importance (in a network sense) of the people who were first informed about the program, "the injection points". Microfinance participation is higher when the injection points have higher eigenvector centrality. We estimate structural models of diffusion that allow us to (i) determine the relative roles of basic information transmission versus other forms of peer influence, and (ii) distinguish information passing by participants and non-participants. We find that participants are significantly more likely to pass information on to friends and acquaintances than informed non-participants, but that information passing by non-participants is still substantial and significant, accounting for roughly a third of informedness and participation. We also find that, conditioned on being informed, an individual's decision is not significantly affected by the participation of her acquaintances.
