Abstract

In mathematics and physics, chaos theory deals with the behavior of certain nonlinear dynamical systems that under certain conditions exhibit a phenomenon known as chaos, which is characterised by a sensitivity to initial conditions. Mathematicians paradoxically call such states of order chaos and distinguish them from randomness. New models for describing and predicting different aspects of behavior are being created which once seemed unpredictable. This is done by focusing on the overall patterns of behavior, showing how stable or unstable they are and identifying the circumstances that make them change. In this paper, we indicate why human temper and mood changes have a chaotic nature. Then, we develop a chaotic model based on a long short-term memory recurrent neural network with irregular embeddings derived by the gamma test to model temper tantrum. We finally use a feedback delay controller to stabilize its chaotic behavior, because it is a plausible method for stabilizing biological neural systems. A lot of aspects of this model are analogous to the human counterpart. The model might suggest, for example, that if a particular person had stronger ego defenses, and attended a little less vigilantly to the external world, h...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
