Markus Redeker, Andrew Adamatzky, Genaro J. Mart\'inez
TL;DR
This paper explores the expressiveness of elementary cellular automata in simulating biological systems, evaluating whether this concept is meaningful for biological modeling and biodiversity representation.
Contribution
It provides a survey of elementary cellular automata's expressiveness and assesses its relevance in biological simulation contexts.
Findings
Expressiveness varies across different automata
Some automata effectively model biological diversity
The term 'expressiveness' has limited applicability in biological simulations
Abstract
We investigate expressiveness, a parameter of one-dimensional cellular automata, in the context of simulated biological systems. The development of elementary cellular automata is interpreted in terms of biological systems, and biologically inspired parameters for biodiversity are applied to the configurations of cellular automata. This article contains a survey of the Elementary Cellular Automata in terms of their expressiveness and an evaluation whether expressiveness is a meaningful term in the context of simulated biology.
