Objectives: interdisciplinary research in physics of complex systems,
modelling and applications
The Centre was certified as a National Competence Centre in 2002
Research focus: sociophysics,
econophysics, complex networks
- statistical physics in economy and social sciences.
- statistical models of emotions in e-communities ,
- information and social dynamics in socio-techno networks,
- collective opinion formation,
- time series analysis

CYBEREMOTIONS = data gathering + complex systems methods + ICT outputs
Main aims
• to understand the process of collective emotions formation in e-communities
• to create decentralized adaptive tools to amplify positive or suppress negative collective emotions in
e-societies
• to stabilize different ICT services by predicting negative emotions & minimizing their effects (long)
• to create theoretical background for the development of the next generation emotionally-intelligent
ICT services using universal methods of complex systems (long).

Centre contributions to FuturIcT objectives
- coordination of Polish FuturIcT Hub
- organisation of Observatory of Conflicts and Emotions;
developing a background for a next generation emotionally
intelligent Web where human-computer interactions are improved by
taking into account human affects and emotions .
