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

• vertical mirrorconcept0.746
  Mirror line at right angles to the translation axis
• physiological softwareconcept0.745
  Analogy: developmental and behavioral plasticity runs on the bioelectric 'software' layer, with the genome providing the 'hardware' of ion channels and proteins.
• Personal softwareconcept0.724
  Idea that users should customize and restructure tools for idiosyncratic needs; central thesis of the paper.
• Biological Softwareconcept0.714
  The paper's characterization of living organisms' causal patterns as software — evolving, self-organizing, self-perpetuating, agentic — distinct from engineered code
• virtual governorconcept0.683
  A high-level control node (e.g., calcium pattern, resting potential) that is a complex function of many low-level components, not 1:1 mappable to genes.
• Scrollingmethod0.682
  Dynamic condition: vertical or horizontal movement through a continuous text.
• Virtual Machineconcept0.682
  A computing layer above physical hardware; Sloman uses this as an analogy for mental processes not reducible to physics.
• Gradientsconcept0.678
  The property that qualities vary slowly, subtly, gradually across the extent of each living thing; gradients arise as natural responses to changing circumstances and create field-like character that points toward and establishes centers
