Directing Chemotaxis-Based Spatial Self-Organization via Biased, Random Initial Conditions
Sean Grimes, Linge Bai, Andrew W. E. McDonald +1
Inspired by the chemotaxis interaction of living cells, we have developed an agent-based approach for self-organizing shape formation. Since all our simulations begin with a differ…
