Formal Definitions of Unbounded Evolution and Innovation Reveal Universal Mechanisms for Open-Ended Evolution in Dynamical Systems
Alyssa M Adams, Hector Zenil, Paul CW Davies +1
Open-ended evolution (OEE) is relevant to a variety of biological, artificial and technological systems, but has been challenging to reproduce in silico. Most theoretical efforts f…
The "Hard Problem" of Life

The Informational Architecture Of The Cell
Sara Imari Walker, Hyunju Kim, Paul C. W. Davies
We compare the informational architecture of biological and random networks to identify informational features that may distinguish biological networks from random. The study prese…
Self-referencing cellular automata: A model of the evolution of information control in biological systems
Theodore P. Pavlic, Alyssa M. Adams, Paul C. W. Davies +1
Cellular automata have been useful artificial models for exploring how relatively simple rules combined with spatial memory can give rise to complex emergent patterns. Moreover, st…
