The neighbor connectivity of a graph $G$ is the least number of vertices such that removing their closed neighborhoods from $G$ results in a graph that is disconnected, complete or empty. If a~graph is used to model the topology of an…
In addition to the $\lambda$ parameter, we have found another parameter which characterize the class III, class II and class IV patterns more quantitatively. It explains why the different classes of patterns coexist at the same $\lambda$.…
Conway's Game of Life is the best-known cellular automaton. It is a classic model of emergence and self-organization, it is Turing-complete, and it can simulate a universal constructor. The Game of Life belongs to the set of semi-totalistic…
A one-dimensional cellular automaton $\tau : A^\mathbb{Z} \to A^\mathbb{Z}$ is a transformation of the full shift defined via a finite neighborhood $S \subset \mathbb{Z}$ and a local function $\mu : A^S \to A$. We study the family of…
What substrate features allow life? We exhaustively classify all 262,144 outer-totalistic binary cellular automata rules with Moore neighbourhood for self-replication and produce phase diagrams in the $(\lambda, F)$ plane, where $\lambda$…
It is speculated that there is a relationship between 1/f noise and computational universality in cellular automata. We use genetic algorithms to search for one-dimensional and two-state, five-neighbor cellular automata which have 1/f-type…
We discuss how to construct shift-invariant probability measures over the space of bisequences of symbols, and how to describe such measures in terms of block probabilities. We then define cellular automata as maps in the space of measures…
The objective is to find a Cellular Automata (CA) rule that can evolve 2D patterns that are optimal with respect to a global fitness function. The global fitness is defined as the sum of local computed utilities. A utility or value function…
The newly introduced neighborhood matrix extends the power of adjacency and distance matrices to describe the topology of graphs. The adjacency matrix enumerates which pairs of vertices share an edge and it may be summarized by the degree…
We propose a characteristic representation ofone-dimensional and 2-state, 3-neighbor cellular automaton rules, which describes an effective form of each rule after many time steps. Simulated results of the representation show that complex…
Classical Cellular Automata (CCAs) are a powerful computational framework for modeling global spatio-temporal dynamics with local interactions. While CCAs have been applied across numerous scientific fields, identifying the local rule that…
We introduce a novel framework of reservoir computing, that is capable of both connectionist machine intelligence and symbolic computation. Cellular automaton is used as the reservoir of dynamical systems. Input is randomly projected onto…
We extend the usual definition of cellular automaton on a group in order to deal with a new kind of cellular automata, like cellular automata in the hyperbolic plane and we explore some properties of these cellular automata. This definition…
Quantum cellular automata are alternative quantum-computing paradigms to quantum Turing machines and quantum circuits. Their working mechanisms are inherently automated, therefore measurement free, and they act in a translation invariant…
K-nearest neighbor classification algorithm is one of the most basic algorithms in machine learning, which determines the sample's category by the similarity between samples. In this paper, we propose a quantum K-nearest neighbor…
There exists an index theory to classify strictly local quantum cellular automata in one dimension. We consider two classification questions. First, we study to what extent this index theory can be applied in higher dimensions via…
We study two-dimensional rotation-symmetric number-conserving cellular automata working on the von Neumann neighborhood (RNCA). It is known that such automata with 4 states or less are trivial, so we investigate the possible rules with 5…
We study one-dimensional reversible and number-conserving cellular automata (RNCCA) that have both properties of reversibility and number-conservation. In the case of 2-neighbor RNCCA, Garc\'ia-Ramos proved that every RNCCA shows trivial…
Fekete's lemma is a well known combinatorial result on number sequences: we extend it to functions defined on $d$-tuples of integers. As an application of the new variant, we show that nonsurjective $d$-dimensional cellular automata are…
A one-dimensional two-state number-conserving cellular automaton (NCCA) is a cellular automaton whose states are 0 or 1 and where cells take states 0 and 1 and updated their states by the rule which keeps overall sum of states constant. It…
