人生真的很複雜嗎？

演算法能夠預測下次暴動的地點嗎？在這場平易的演說中，數學家漢娜佛萊展示如何分析複雜的社會行為，也許能類比自然現象（如美洲豹的斑點圖案或是捕食者和獵物在野外的分佈）來預測。

Complex human behaviors, like crowd movements or riots, can be better understood by borrowing models from nature. Just as millions of air molecules form predictable weather, social systems can display patterns similar to gravity, chemical morphogenesis, or predator-prey dynamics. Mathematical analogies have already helped police predict burglary hot spots and analyze the spread of riots in London. By finding the right parallels, science is starting to decode the seeming chaos of society.
