Growing Reservoirs with Developmental Graph Cellular Automata
Matias Barandiaran, James Stovold
Developmental Graph Cellular Automata (DGCA) are a novel model for morphogenesis, capable of growing directed graphs from single-node seeds. In this paper, we show that DGCAs can b…

Identity Increases Stability in Neural Cellular Automata
James Stovold
Neural Cellular Automata (NCAs) offer a way to study the growth of two-dimensional artificial organisms from a single seed cell. From the outset, NCA-grown organisms have had issue…
