Probabilistic cellular automata with conserved quantities
نویسنده
چکیده
We demonstrate that the concept of a conservation law can be naturally extended from deterministic to probabilistic cellular automata (PCA) rules. The local function for conservative PCA must satisfy conditions analogous to conservation conditions for deterministic cellular automata. Conservation condition for PCA can also be written in the form of a current conservation law. For deterministic nearest-neighbour CA the current can be computed exactly. Local structure approximation can partially predict the equilibrium current for non-deterministic cases. For linear segments of the fundamental diagram it actually produces exact results.

Conserved Energy Functions for Cellular Automata: Finding Nontrivials Faster Through a Complete Theory of the Trivials
Conserved quantities indicate fundamental physical properties of systems, and are therefore eagerly sought after in science. Conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum, for example, are two fundamental principles that offer profound insights into the nature of the world we live in. Cellular automata, as models of physical systems, can exhibit conserved functions of relevance to...
متن کاملConservation Laws in Cellular Automata
A conservation law in a cellular automaton is the statement of the invariance of a local and additive energy-like quantity. This chapter reviews the basic theory of conservation laws in cellular automata. A general mathematical framework for formulating conservation laws in cellular automata is presented and several characterizations of them are summarized. Computational problems regarding cons...
متن کاملConservation Laws and Invariant Measures in Surjective Cellular Automata
We discuss a close link between two seemingly different topics studied in the cellular automata literature: additive conservation laws and invariant probability measures. We provide an elementary proof of a simple correspondence between invariant full-support Bernoulli measures and interaction-free conserved quantities in the case of onedimensional surjective cellular automata. We also discuss ...
متن کاملSome Applications of Information Theory to Cellular Automata
In this paper general deterministic one-dimensional cellular automata are identified with mappings of the unit interval into itself. This allows the machinery of dynamical systems analysis to be employed. The emphasis of the paper, however, is on applications of existing concepts and techniques of information theory to these automata. A basic paper by W.M. Conner is utilized to obtain equality ...
متن کاملEdge Detection Based On Nearest Neighbor Linear Cellular Automata Rules and Fuzzy Rule Based System
Edge Detection is an important task for sharpening the boundary of images to detect the region of interest. This paper applies a linear cellular automata rules and a Mamdani Fuzzy inference model for edge detection in both monochromatic and the RGB images. In the uniform cellular automata a transition matrix has been developed for edge detection. The Results have been compared to the ...
