How to make dull cellular automata complex by adding memory: Rule 126 case study (2010)
Journal Article

Using Rule 126 elementary cellular automaton (ECA), we demonstrate that a chaotic discrete system - when enriched with memory - hence exhibits complex dynamics where such space exploits on an ample universe of periodic patterns induced from original...

An automated mean-shift based segmentation for pigmented skin lesions (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents an unsupervised segmentation scheme to isolate pigmented skin lesion from surrounding normal skin. An adaptive mean-shift algorithm combined with maximal similarity based region merging is applied with a colour-spatial feature sp...

Computation with competing patterns in Life-like automaton: Binary adder implementation (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We study Life-like cellular automaton rule B2/S2345. This automaton exhibits a chaotic behaviour yet capable for purposeful computation. The automaton implements Boolean gates via patterns which compete for the space when propagate in channels. Value...

Correlating plagiocephaly skull deformations with facial asymmetry using projected pattern 3D imaging (2010)
Book Chapter

In this paper, we present a statistical study into skull deformations caused by positional plagiocephaly. We also consider the hardware used for the assessment of both severity and treatment. State-of-the-art external imaging hardware is employed to... Read More about Correlating plagiocephaly skull deformations with facial asymmetry using projected pattern 3D imaging.

Using 3D differential forms to characterize a pigmented lesion in vivo (2010)
Journal Article

Background/purpose: After the formulation of ABCD rules, many new feature extraction methods are emerging to describe the asymmetry, border irregularity, color variation and diameter of malignant melanoma. In this paper, a new research direction orth... Read More about Using 3D differential forms to characterize a pigmented lesion in vivo.

Towards Physarum binary adders (2010)
Journal Article

Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a single cell visible by unaided eye. The plasmodium's foraging behaviour is interpreted in terms of computation. Input data is a configuration of nutrients, result of computation is a network of plasmodium's cy... Read More about Towards Physarum binary adders.

On generative morphological diversity of elementary cellular automata (2010)
Journal Article

Purpose: Studies in complexity of cellular automata do usually deal with measures taken on integral dynamics or statistical measures of space-time configurations. No one has tried to analyze a generative power of cellular-automaton machines. The purp... Read More about On generative morphological diversity of elementary cellular automata.

A computer assisted diagnosis system for malignant melanoma using 3D skin surface texture features and artificial neural network (2010)
Journal Article

It has been observed that disruptions in skin patterns are larger for malignant melanoma than for benign lesions. In contrast to existing work on 2D skin line patterns, this work proposes a computer assisted diagnosis system for malignant melanoma ba...

Safe adaptive compliance control of a humanoid robotic arm with anti-windup compensation and posture control (2010)
Journal Article

Safety is very important for physical human-robot interaction. Compliance control can solve an important aspect of the safety problem by dealing with impact and other forces arising during close contact between humans and robots. An adaptive complian...

Complex dynamics of elementary cellular automata emerging from chaotic rules (2012)
Journal Article

We show techniques of analyzing complex dynamics of cellular automata (CA) with chaotic behavior. CA are well-known computational substrates for studying emergent collective behavior, complexity, randomness and interaction between order and chaotic s...

Complex dynamics emerging in Rule 30 with majority memory (2010)
Journal Article

In cellular automata with memory, the unchanged maps of the conventional cellular automata are applied to cells endowed with memory of their past states in some specified interval. We implement Rule 30 automata with a majority memory and show that usi... Read More about Complex dynamics emerging in Rule 30 with majority memory.

Localization dynamics in a binary two-dimensional cellular automaton: The Diffusion Rule (2010)
Journal Article

We study a two-dimensional cellular automaton (CA), called Diffusion Rule (DR), which exhibits diffusion-like dynamics of propagating patterns. In computational experiments we discover a wide range of mobile and stationary localizations (gliders, osc...

Majority adder implementation by competing patterns in life-like rule B2/S2345 (2010)
Journal Article

In this paper we present a two-dimensional chaotic cellular automaton, the Life rule B2/S2345, able to simulate the action of an adder with majority gates, stimulated by gliders collisions transformed as competing patterns. Values of Boolean variable... Read More about Majority adder implementation by competing patterns in life-like rule B2/S2345.

Chemical tessellations - Results of binary and tertiary reactions between metal ions and ferricyanide or ferrocyanide loaded gels (2010)
Journal Article

In our recent letter [de Lacy Costello et al., 2009] we described the formation of spontaneous complex tessellations of the plane constructed in simple chemical reactions between drops of metal salts and ferricyanide or ferrocyanide loaded gels. In t... Read More about Chemical tessellations - Results of binary and tertiary reactions between metal ions and ferricyanide or ferrocyanide loaded gels.
