framework

Cybernetics
implements
A mathematical and engineering framework for understanding goal-directed behavior in systems through feedback control mechanisms. Cybernetics formalizes how systems maintain purposive behavior and self-regulation, with applications spanning biology (morphogenetic control), behavioral science, and artificial systems; it provides rigorous language to analyze teleological processes without invoking teleology.

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.
