Elementary Cellular Automata

Cellular automata present great variability in their temporal evolutions due to the number of rules and initial configurations. The possibility of automatically classifying its dynamic behavior would be of great value when studying properties of its dynamics. By counting on elementary cellular automata, and considering its temporal evolution as binary images, the authors created a texture descriptor of the images - based on the neighborhood configurations of the cells in temporal evolutions - so that it could be associated to each dynamic behavior class, following the scheme of Wolfram's classic classification. It was then possible to predict the class of rules of a temporal evolution of an elementary rule in a more effective way than others in the literature in terms of precision and computational cost. By applying the classifier to the larger neighborhood space containing 4 cells, accuracy decreased to just over 70%. However, the classifier is still able to provide some information about the dynamics of an unknown larger space with reduced computational cost.

Elementary Cellular Automata

Cellular automata (CA) are discrete dynamical systems consist of a regular finite grid of cell; each cell encapsulating an equal portion of the state, and arranged spatially in a regular fashion to form an n-dimensional lattice. A cellular automata is like computers, data represented by initial configurations which is processed by time evolution to produce output. This paper is an empirical study of elementary cellular automata which includes concepts of rule equivalence, evolution of cellular automata and classification of cellular automata. In addition, explanation of behaviour of cellular automata is revealed through example.

The topological conjugacy classification of elementary cellular automata with majority memory (ECAMs) is studied under the framework of symbolic dynamics. In the light of the conventional symbolic sequence space, the compact symbolic vector space is identified with a feasible metric and topology. A slight change is introduced to present that all global maps of ECAMs are continuous functions, thereafter generating the compact dynamical systems. By exploiting two fundamental homeomorphisms in symbolic vector space, all ECAMs are furthermore grouped into 88 equivalence classes in the sense that different mappings in the same global equivalence are mutually topologically conjugate.

Classification of asynchronous elementary cellular automata (AECAs) was explored in the first place by Fates et al. (Complex Systems, 2004) who employed the asymptotic density of cells as a key metric to measure their robustness to stochastic transitions. Unfortunately, the asymptotic density seems unable to distinguish the robustnesses of all AECAs. In this paper, we put forward a method that goes one step further via adopting a metric entropy (Martin, Complex Systems, 2000), with the aim of measuring the asymptotic mean entropy of local pattern distribution in the cell space of any AECA. Numerical experiments demonstrate that such an entropy-based measure can actually facilitate a complete classification of the robustnesses of all AECA models, even when all local patterns are restricted to length 1. To gain more insights into the complexity concerning the forward evolution of all AECAs, we consider another entropy defined in the form of Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy and conduct preliminary experiments on classifying their uncertainties measured in terms of the proposed entropy. The results reveal that AECAs with low uncertainty tend to converge remarkably faster than models with high uncertainty.

Abstract We associate an elementary cellular automaton with a set of self-referential sentences, whose revision process is exactly the evolution process of that automaton. A simple but useful result of this connection is that a set of self-referential sentences is paradoxical, iff (the evolution process for) the cellular automaton in question has no fixed points. We sort out several distinct kinds of paradoxes by the existence and features of the fixed points of their corresponding automata. They are finite homogeneous paradoxes and infinite homogeneous paradoxes. In some weaker sense, we will also introduce no-no-sort paradoxes and virtual paradoxes. The introduction of these paradoxes, in turn, leads to a new classification of the cellular automata.

Sensitivity To Initial Conditions

We propose a novel, information-based classification of elementary cellular automata. The classification scheme proposed circumvents the problems associated with isolating whether complexity is in fact intrinsic to a dynamical rule, or if it arises merely as a product of a complex initial state. Transfer entropy variations processed by cellular automata split the 256 elementary rules into three information classes, based on sensitivity to initial conditions. These classes form a hierarchy such that coarse-graining transitions observed among elementary rules predominately occur within each information-based class or, much more rarely, down the hierarchy.
