A-periodic order

The complex, non-repeating order of a living neighborhood, analogous to Schrödinger's description of DNA.

The irregular, off-beat placement of the four colors that generates a rich, dynamic urban fabric.

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

Order (versus Disorder)concept0.761
Low entropy, organized state; life maintains order by consuming negative entropy.
Information Orderingconcept0.757
Order relations modeling approximation and information content; appears in string prefixes, interval approximations, and partial maps.
Rectilinear Orderconcept0.753
The straight, orthogonal geometries that arise naturally from structural and functional forces in built forms.
Order (general mathematical structure of space)concept0.745
A most general system of mathematical structures arising from the nature of space, which has degrees of life.
Order provides terminology, notation, and models across diverse areas of computer science including comparisons of size, information content, and definedness.claim0.739

Four-volume work by Christopher Alexander providing foundational results for harmony-seeking computation, including the concept of wholeness and the fifteen properties.
Bayesian orderframework0.724
