Computation by competing patterns: Life rule B2/S2345678
نویسندگان
چکیده
Patterns, originating from different sources of perturbations, propagating in a precipitating chemical medium do usually compete for the space. They sub-divide the medium onto the regions unique for an initial configuration of disturbances. This sub-division can be expressed in terms of computation. We adopt an analogy between precipitating chemical media and semi-totalistic binary two-dimensional cellular automata, with cell-state transition rule B2/S2 . . . 8. We demonstrate how to implement basic logic and arithmetical operations (computability) by patterns propagating in geometrically constrained Life rule B2/S2 . . . 8 medium.

Majority Adder Implementation by Competing Patterns in Life-Like Rule B2/S2345
We study Life-like cellular automaton rule B2/S2345. This automaton exhibits a chaotic behavior yet capable for purposeful computation. The automaton implements Boolean gates via patterns which compete for the space when propagate in channels. Values of Boolean variables are encoded into two types of patterns — symmetric (False) and asymmetric (True). We construct basic logical gates and elemen...
متن کاملBayesian, and non-Bayesian, Cause-Specific Competing-Risk Analysis for Parametric and Non-Parametric Survival Functions: The R Package CFC
The R package CFC performs cause-specific, competing-risk survival analysis by computing cumulative incidence functions from unadjusted, cause-specific survival functions. A high-level API in CFC enables end-to-end survival and competing-risk analysis, using a single-line function call, based on the parametric survival regression models in survival package. A low-level API allows users to achie...
متن کاملMedical data mining using evolutionary computation
In this paper, we introduce a system for discovering medical knowledge by learning Bayesian networks and rules. Evolutionary computation is used as the search algorithm. The Bayesian networks can provide an overall structure of the relationships among the attributes. The rules can capture detailed and interesting patterns in the database. The system is applied to real-life medical databases for...
متن کاملControl Chart Recognition Patterns using Fuzzy Rule-Based System
Control Chart Patterns (CCPs) recognition is one the most important concepts in control chart application. Relating the patterns exhibited on the control chart to assignable causes is an ambiguous and vague task especially when multiple patterns co-exist. In this study, a fuzzy rule-based system is developed for X ̅ control charts to prioritize the control chart causes based on the accumulated e...
متن کاملData sanitization in association rule mining based on impact factor
Data sanitization is a process that is used to promote the sharing of transactional databases among organizations and businesses, it alleviates concerns for individuals and organizations regarding the disclosure of sensitive patterns. It transforms the source database into a released database so that counterparts cannot discover the sensitive patterns and so data confidentiality is preserved ag...
