    Cave Cellular Automaton – Algorithm 12.3

    I’ve already posted a few examples of Cellular Automata but in hindsight, some of them were a bit complicated especially for those who don’t have any prior experience with this computational paradigm. I have a few more even more complicated ones I want to highlight in future blog postings, but I thought it might be useful to…

    Disturbance Cellular Automata – Example 12.2

    Cellular Automata are used in many applications to understand and simplify complex natural phenomena. Sand dunes, braided river networks, and ecosystems are just a few of the things that authors have attempted to translate into simple rules and which in the end generate complex results. This script is based on a well-known cellular automata known…

    Activator Inhibitor “Fur” Pattern – Example 12.1

    This is the first example I am showing based on a family of algorithms known as Cellular Automata. I will not write too much here about the theory of a cellular automaton, you can read the Wikipedia page or google the term if my basic explanation doesn’t make sense, but Cellular Automata have 1 –…
