报告摘要:
　　Complex systems and emergence: how theory meets reality Emergent behaviors of complex systems have fascinated mankind for aeons. It is only in recent decades that extensive efforts have been made to quantitatively study them, resulting in important theories and tools such as chaos theory, random fractal theory, and multi-scale analyses. This lecture series aim to convey the best practices in this vast field, emphasizing theory meets reality. As illustrative examples, river flow dynamics, financial crises, and world-wide political conflicts will be briefly discussed in the first lecture, with the more involved technical details left for later lectures.

报告人简介：



　　Jianbo Gao received M.S. from Prof. Zhemin Zheng at the Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Science, in 1991, and Ph.D in Electrical Engineering of UCLA in 2000. In 2002, he joined Electrical and Computer Engineering at Univ of Florid as an assistant Prof. Currently, he is Research Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Wright State University, and founder of PMB Intelligence, a data analysis company based in West Lafayette, IN, specializing in sophisticated physical, mathematical, and bioengineering techniques to solve data-driven real-world problems. He is a leading expert on multi-scale analysis and nonlinear time series analysis. His book, Multi-scale Analysis of Complex Time Series: Integration of Chaos and Random Fractal Theory, and Beyond, is the first and highly praised book in the field. From 2004 to 2006 he was associate editor of IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering and Signal Processing.
