An adaptive system is a system that is able to adapt its behavior according to changes in its environment or in parts of the system itself. A human being, for instance, is certainly an adaptive system; so are organizations and families. Some man-made systems can be made adaptive as well; for instance, control systems utilize feedback loops in order to sense conditions in their environment and adapt accordingly. Robots incorporate many of these control systems.

Topics: Adaptive System, Adaptive Radiation, Adaptive Expectations...

Adaptive radiationAdaptive radiation describes the rapid speciation of a single or a few species to fill many ecological niches. This is an evolutionary process driven by mutation and natural selection. Adaptive radiation often occurs when a species is introduced to a new	Adaptive expectationsIn economics, adaptive expectations means that people base their expectations of what will happen in the future based on what has happened in the past. For example, if inflation has been high in the past, people would expect it to be high in the future.	Adaptive communicationsAdaptive communications can mean any communications system, or portion thereof, that automatically uses feedback information obtained from the system itself or from the signals carried by the system to modify dynamically one or more of the system operatio
Adaptive predictive codingAdaptive predictive coding APC is a Narrowband analog-to- digital conversion that uses a one-level or multilevel sampling system in which the value of the signal at each sampling instant is predicted according to a linear function of the past values of th	Adaptive filterA adaptive filter is a digital filter that performs digital signal processing, and is able to adapt its performance to optimally suit the input signal. This is as opposed to a non-adaptive filter, which has static filter coefficients (which collectively f	Adaptive opticsAdaptive optics is a technology to improve the performance of reflecting telescopes by reducing the effects of twinkling. Adaptive optics work by rapidly " adapting" and reshaping telescopic mirrors. The technique was only practical starting in the 1990s
