Feedback, Lineages and Self-Organizing Morphogenesis
Feedback regulation of cell lineage progression plays an important role in tissue size homeostasis, but whether such feedback also plays an important role in tissue morphogenesis has yet to be explored. Here we use mathematical modeling to show that a particular feedback architecture in which both positive and negative diffusible signals act on stem and/or progenitor cells leads to the appearan...
متن کاملComputer Morphogenesis in Self-Organizing Structures
Applying biological concepts to create new models in the computational field is not a revolutionary idea: science has already been the basis for the famous artificial neuron models, the genetic algorithms, etc. The cells of a biological organism are able to compose very complex structures from a unique cell, the zygote, with no need for centralized control (Watson J.D. & Crick F. H. 1953). The ...
متن کاملMorphogenesis as a macroscopic self-organizing process
We start from reviewing different epistemological constructions used for explaining morphogenesis. Among them, we explore the explanatory power of a law-centered approach which includes top-down causation and the basic concepts of a self-organization theory. Within such a framework, we discuss the morphomechanical models based upon the presumption of feedbacks between mechanical stresses impose...
متن کاملWeighted Self-Organizing Maps: Incorporating User Feedback
One interesting way of accessing collections of multimedia objects is by methods of visualization and clustering. Growing self-organizing maps provide such a solution, which adapts automatically to the underlying database. Unfortunately, the result of the clustering greatly depends on the definition of the describing features and the used similarity measure. In this paper, we present a general ...
متن کاملLearning, Feedback and Information in Self-Organizing Communication Systems
Communication systems reliably self-organize in populations of interacting agents under certain conditions. The various fields which model this – game theory, cognitive science and evolutionary linguistics – make different assumptions about the learning and behavioral processes which are responsible. We created an exemplar-based framework to directly compare these approaches by reproducing prev...
