cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Tissue achieves its segmentation goal despite being placed in a severely altered geometric context.
- Collectivity is necessary for the oscillatory behavior of the segmentation clock; individual cells lack the competence.
- Intelligence is defined by navigating not just 3D space but also anatomical, gene expression, and physiological spaces.
- Asserts that developmental biology can be understood through the lens of problem-solving and cognitive concepts.
- Organisms compress to a single cell (egg) and re-inflate, requiring generalization.
- Paper on the space of possible biological forms relevant to diverse intelligence
- Shows that the segmentation goal can be reached via alternative developmental pathways, fitting James' definition of intelligence.
- Asserts that 20th-century processes do not intentionally create living form, unlike the living processes described in chapters 6-17.
