    Hunter–gatherer mobility and technological landscapes in southernmost South America: a statistical learning approach

    Get PDF
    The present work aims to quantitatively explore and understand the relationship between mobility types (nautical versus pedestrian), specific technological traits and shared technological knowledge in pedestrian hunter–gatherer and nautical hunter–fisher–gatherer societies from the southernmost portion of South America. To that end, advanced statistical learning techniques are used: state-of-the-art classification algorithms and variable importance analyses. Results show a strong relationship between technological knowledge, traits and mobility types. Occupations can be accurately classified into nautical and pedestrian due to the existence of a non-trivial pattern between mobility and a relatively small fraction of variables from some specific technological categories. Cases where the best-fitted classification algorithm fails to generalize are found significantly interesting. These instances can unveil lack of information, not enough entries in the training set, singular features or ambiguity, the latter case being a possible indicator of the interaction between nautical and pedestrian societies.HAR-2009-06996, CSD2010-00034, HAR2017- 90883-REDC, CULM-HAR2016-77672-P (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacio´n de Espan˜ a); PIP-0706, PIP-0348 (Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cientı´ficas y Tecnolo´gicas-Argentina) and PICT 2012-2148 (Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnologı´a e Innovacio´n Productiva de la Repu´ blica Argentina); PROC/12-120610-A (SESAR WPE Long Term and Innovative Research-European Commission); and Project GR-7846 (Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research

    Associahedra, Tamari Lattices and Related Structures

    No full text
    Tamari lattices originated from weakenings or reinterpretations of the familar associativity law. This was the subject of Dov Tamari's thesis at the Sorbonne in Paris in 1951 and the central theme of his subsequent mathematical work. Tamari lattices can be realized in terms of polytopes called associahedra, which in fact also appeared first in Tamari's thesis. By now these beautiful structures have made their appearance in many different areas of pure and applied mathematics, such as algebra, combinatorics, computer science, category theory, geometry, topology, and also in physics. Their interdisciplinary nature provides much fascination and value. On the occasion of Dov Tamari's centennial birthday, this book provides an introduction to topical research related to Tamari's work and ideas. Most of the articles collected in it are written in a way accessible to a wide audience of students and researchers in mathematics and mathematical physics and are accompanied by high quality illustrations
