Abstract: Despite having a slow and noisy neuromotor system, humans manage to dexterously interact with complex (nonlinear, underactuated, non-rigid) objects on a daily basis. This feat of human ...

Assembly theory bridges the gap between physics and biology in explaining how complex objects are identifiable as products of evolution and how reusability of parts allows novelty and identical ...

Physicists construct theories to describe nature. Let us explain it through an analogy with something that we can do in our everyday life, like going on a hike in the mountains. To avoid getting lost, ...
