1. Any pattern of behavior that can be measured as a vector of behavioral attributes such that the resulting behavior vectors exhibit stability as eigenvectors.

     Eigen representations have become one of the most popular techniques in pattern recognition (e.g. face recognition) because of its strong discriminative ability. Eagle and Pentland proposed using the so-called eigenbehavior to measure the distance between people, which is then used for the construction of a social network.

   • 2013, G. Vijver, Stanley N. Salthe, M. Delpos, Evolutionary Systems, page 341:

     Any system, cognitive or biological, which is able to relate internally, self-organized, stable structures (eigenvalues) to constant aspects of its own interaction with an environment can be said to observe eigenbehavior.

   • 2014, Ludwig Jäger, Erika Linz, Irmela Schneider, Media, Culture, and Mediality, page 71:

     The eigenbehavior of the system creates “relatively stable attitudes that arise when an operation is utilized for its own results” (1102).

   • 2016, Klaus Knothe, Sebastian Stichel, Rail Vehicle Dynamics, page 225:

     The investigation of the eigenbehavior and the stability of bogie vehicles, taking into account all degrees of freedom, is performed with the same numerical procedures as for a wheelset or a bogie.
