Spatial Pattern Formation in Asynchronous Cellular Automata with Mass Conservation
نویسنده
چکیده
The pattern formation of asynchronous cellular automata with mass conservation is explored. A cellular automaton rule causing a specified kind of pattern was manually designed, and the mechanism of pattern formation was found similar to real chemical process. In addition, a methodology to automatically search for pattern-forming cellular automata is proposed, and its performance is validated. The searching technique can be applied to a wide range of potential studies related to self-organization.

Searching for Pattern-Forming Asynchronous Cellular Automata - An Evolutionary Approach
This paper discusses a class of 2-dimensional asynchronous cellular automata with conservation of mass, for the formation of patterns in groups. The previous study reported a methodology of searching, automatically, for pattern-forming cellular automata using a genetic algorithm; this approach successfully found a few types of pattern-forming rules. The current study is a series of statistical ...
متن کاملPattern Formation of the FitzHugh-Nagumo Model: Cellular Automata Approach
FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model is a famous Reaction-Diffusion System which first introduced for the conduction of electrical impulses along a nerve fiber. This model is also considered as an abstract model for pattern formation. Here, we have used the Cellular Automata method to simulate the pattern formation of the FHN model. It is shown that the pattern of this model is very similar to those...

In this paper, we use game theory to describe the emergence of self-organization and consequent pattern formation through communicative cooperation in Bacillus subtilis colonies. The emergence of cooperative regime is modelled as an n-player Assurance game, with the bacterial colonies as individual players. The game is played iteratively through cooperative communication, and mediated by exchan...
متن کاملCellular Automata Simulation of a Bistable Reaction-Diffusion System: Microscopic and Macroscopic Approaches
The Cellular Automata method has been used to simulate the pattern formation of the Schlögl model as a bistable Reaction-Diffusion System. Both microscopic and macroscopic Cellular Automata approaches have been considered and two different methods for obtaining the probabilities in the microscopic approach have been mentioned. The results show the tendency of the system towards the more sta...
متن کاملSquare Kufic Pattern Formation by Asynchronous Cellular Automata
Algorithms Design for pattern formation is an interesting science and many investigations are done about it. In this paper, a novel pattern formation method using asynchronous cellular automata for generating square Kufic patterns is explored. Square Kufic is a kind of script that is used in many Islamic architecture buildings. In our new method, cellular automata rules causing a specified kind...
