Neural cellular automata: applications to biology and beyond classical AI
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
Neural Cellular Automata (NCAs), grids of tiny neural networks that communicate locally, can model complex biological processes like growth, healing, and aging. They also show promise in designing decentralized control systems for soft robots and could even contribute to new approaches in AI.
