Taleb defines a system as "anti-fragile" if it benefits from volatility. His previous works build up a mathematical framework for distinguishing between things which are harmed by fragility, things which are neutral to fragility, and things which are benefitted from fragility, which are fragile, robust, and anti-fragile, respectively.
