An antifragile system?s response to external perturbations is beyond robust, such that small stressors can strengthen the future response of the system by adding a strong anticipation component. Such principles are already well suited for describing behaviors in natural systems but also in approaching therapy designs and eco-system modelling and eco-system analysis. The purpose of this book is to build a foundational knowledge base by applying antifragile system design, analysis, and development in natural systems, including biomedicine, neuroscience, and ecology as main fields. We are interested in formalizing principles and an apparatus that turns the basic concept of antifragility into a tool for designing and building closed-loop systems that behave beyond robust in the face of uncertainty when characterizing and intervening in biomedical and ecological (eco)systems. The book introduces the framework of applied antifragility and possible paths to build systems that gain from uncertainty. We draw from the body of literature on natural systems (e.g. cancer therapy, antibiotics, neuroscience, and agricultural pest management) in an attempt to unify the scales of antifragility in one framework. The work of the Applied Antifragility Group in oncology, neuroscience, and ecology led by the authors provides a good overview on the current research status. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Computer Science,$x2191-5776 606 $aComputer science 606 $aAlgorithms 606 $aMedical informatics 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aBioinformatics 606 $aApplication software 606 $aTheory and Algorithms for Application Domains 606 $aDesign and Analysis of Algorithms 606 $aHealth Informatics 606 $aComputer Modelling 606 $aBioinformatics 606 $aComputer and Information Systems Applications 615 0$aComputer science. 615 0$aAlgorithms. 615 0$aMedical informatics. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 0$aBioinformatics. 615 0$aApplication software. 615 14$aTheory and Algorithms for Application Domains. 615 24$aDesign and Analysis of Algorithms. 615 24$aHealth Informatics. 615 24$aComputer Modelling. 615 24$aBioinformatics. 615 24$aComputer and Information Systems Applications. 676 $a004.0151 700 $aAxenie$b Cristian$01834028 701 $aBauer$b Roman$01834029 701 $aLópez Corona$b Oliver$01834030 701 $aWest$b Jeffrey$01834031 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911015855003321 996 $aApplied Antifragility in Natural Systems$94409147 997 $aUNINA
