Effective complexity is a concept that originates from the field of complexity theory, particularly in the context of information theory and systems science. It was introduced by the physicist Gregory Benford and further developed by other researchers to quantify the complexity of a system in a way that reflects its underlying structure rather than just its surface behavior. Effective complexity distinguishes between two types of complexity: **"algorithmic complexity"** and **"effective complexity."** 1.
