A bio-inspired algorithm for identification of critical components in the transportation networks (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Critical components in a transportation or communication network are those which should be better protected or secured because their removal has a significant impact on the whole network. In such networks, th... Read More about A bio-inspired algorithm for identification of critical components in the transportation networks.

Supplier selection based on evidence theory and analytic network process (2014)
Journal Article

© IMechE 2014. The supplier selection is a key component of the supply chain management. Existing methods for the supplier selection are based on analytic network process. They can handle the interdependence of decision attributes; however, these met... Read More about Supplier selection based on evidence theory and analytic network process.

Complete characterization of structure of rule 54 (2014)
Journal Article

The dynamics of rule 54 one-dimensional two-state cellular automaton (CA) are a discrete analog of a space-time dynamics of excitations in nonlinear active medium with mutual inhibition. A cell switches its state 0 to state 1 if one of its two neighb... Read More about Complete characterization of structure of rule 54.

Toward hybrid nanostructure-slime mould devices (2014)
Journal Article

The plasmodium of slime mould Physarum polycephalum has recently received signi¯cant attention for its value as a highly malleable amorphous computing substrate. In laboratory-based experiments, nanoscale arti¯cial circuit components were introduced... Read More about Toward hybrid nanostructure-slime mould devices.

Slime mould electronic oscillators (2014)
Journal Article

We construct electronic oscillator from acellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum. The slime mould oscillator is made of two electrodes connected by a protoplasmic tube of the living slime mould. A protoplasmic tube has an average resistance of 3 M... Read More about Slime mould electronic oscillators.

Information coding with frequency of oscillations in Belousov-Zhabotinsky encapsulated disks (2014)
Journal Article

Information processing with an excitable chemical medium, like the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction, is typically based on information coding in the presence or absence of excitation pulses. Here we present a new concept of Boolean coding that can... Read More about Information coding with frequency of oscillations in Belousov-Zhabotinsky encapsulated disks.

Slime mold microfluidic logical gates (2014)
Journal Article

We demonstrate how logical operations can be implemented in ensembles of protoplasmic tubes of acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum. The tactile response of the protoplasmic tubes is used to actuate analogs of two- and four-input logical gates... Read More about Slime mold microfluidic logical gates.

Evolving spiking networks with variable resistive memories (2014)
Journal Article

Neuromorphic computing is a brainlike information processing paradigm that requires adaptive learning mechanisms. A spiking neuro-evolutionary system is used for this purpose; plastic resistive memories are implemented as synapses in spiking neural n...

A Biologically Inspired Optimization Algorithm for Solving Fuzzy Shortest Path Problems with Mixed Fuzzy Arc Lengths (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014, Springer Science+Business Media New York. The shortest path problem is among fundamental problems of network optimization. Majority of the optimization algorithms assume that weights of data graph’s edges are pre-determined real numbers. Howe...

Rapid Physarum Algorithm for shortest path problem (2014)
Journal Article

As shortest path (SP) problem has been one of the most fundamental network optimization problems for a long time, technologies for this problem are still being studied. In this paper, a new method by integrating a path finding mathematical model, ins... Read More about Rapid Physarum Algorithm for shortest path problem.
