Artificial Ecological System for Evolving Computational Procedures
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper explores a model where computational procedures themselves are evolved for the development of the next generation of emergent computing. The proposed model is an artificial ecosystem consisting of Turing machines which are a mathematical model of computing or algorithm. These Turing machines interact with each other by reading the other machines' descriptions as an input tape. As the simulation proceeds, a series of effective computational procedures emerges from an initial set. This evolutionary process does not require any mutation or static fitness function. This paper demonstrates the self-organizational evolution of these computational procedures through computer simulations.

Knowledge Extraction from the Neural ‘Black Box’ in Ecological Monitoring
Phytoplankton biomass within the Saginaw Bay ecosystem (Lake Huron, Michigan, USA) was characterized as a function of select physical/chemical indicators. The complexity and variability of ecological systems typically make it difficult to model the influences of anthropogenic stressors and/or natural disturbances. Here, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were developed to model chlorophyll a con...
متن کاملEvolving Digital Ecological Networks
"It is hard to realize that the living world as we know it is just one among many possibilities" [1]. Evolving digital ecological networks are webs of interacting, self-replicating, and evolving computer programs (i.e., digital organisms) that experience the same major ecological interactions as biological organisms (e.g., competition, predation, parasitism, and mutualism). Despite being comput...
متن کاملAutomated discovery of relationships, models and principles in ecology
Ecological systems are the quintessential complex systems, involving numerous high-order interactions and non-linear relationships. The most commonly used statistical modelling techniques can hardly reflect the complexity of ecological patterns and processes. Finding hidden relationships in complex data is now possible through the use of massive computational power, particularly by means of Art...

This paper addresses a production and outbound distribution scheduling problem in which a set of jobs have to be process on a single machine for delivery to customers or to other machines for further processing. We assume that there is a sufficient number of vehicles and the delivery costs is independent of batch size but it is dependent on each trip. In this paper, we present an Artificial Imm...

The paper presents an integrated approach to building evolving artificial intelligent systems in terms of evolving connectionist systems (ECOS) that capture principles from neural networks, gene interaction networks and evolutionary systems. The ECOS can be used to solve complex problems from computational biology that is illustrated on a simplified gene regulatory network modeling problem. The...
