We define two complementary approaches to monitor decentralized systems. The first relies on those with a centralized specification, i.e, when the specification is written for the behavior of the entire system. To do so, our approach…
Atomistic simulations generate large volumes of noisy structural data, yet extracting phase labels and continuous order parameters (OPs) in a robust and general manner remains challenging. Existing tools are often specialized to a limited…
Conditional Mutual Information (CMI) is a measure of conditional dependence between random variables X and Y, given another random variable Z. It can be used to quantify conditional dependence among variables in many data-driven inference…

The bond orientational order parameters originally introduced by Steinhardt \emph{et. al.} [Phys. Rev. B \textbf{28}, 784 (1983)] are a common tool for local structure characterization in soft matter studies. Recently, Mickel \emph{et. al.}…

Probabilistic Cellular Automata are a generalization of Cellular Automata. Despite their simple definition, they exhibit fascinating and complex behaviours. The stationary behaviour of these models changes when model parameters are varied,…
